I'm new to this and not sure what to buy or how much to pay. I live in a hilly area so my only real use is working a 100x200 arena, moving snow and maybe a little dirt or gravel. I already have this disc culti/packer for the arena and need a tractor to fit it. http://www.tartergate.com/switch.php?fn=catalog.details&cod=ATVCPDC&site=tt&emp=tt
The New Holland dealer has a TZ24DA with a loader priced at 14160. with 60 months no interest. Does that sound like a good deal? Thanks in advance for the help.

It is not a "Deal". But it is in the ballpark. If I were you I would look more toward the TC line. ....

I was originally looking at the TC but with the little use I think I'll be getting from it, it's hard to justify. Does anyone have any thoughts on the Massey Ferguson GC2300. They are pricing it at 11,300. with the loader. The gross horsepower is lower but they claim it has more pulling power. Thanks for the advice. ....

I've got the TC 33D and very happy with it. It's got all the bells and whistles: hydrodrive, cruise control, tilt/telescopic wheel, Super Steer, suspension seat, lights, etc. Back in '02 I paid $13,500 out the door. I could use a loader but have have other equipment for that. If you're moving dirt around but not picking it up necessarily, all you need is a box scraper IMHO. That's what I use commercially for grading after using the bobcat. ....
