well, i'm supposed to have a NHtc33 delivered tomorrow. after reading comments on this board 2 weeks ago, i decided to buy from corriher imp co. i'm getting a loader, backhoe & box blade as well. the price he gave me seemed fair. i priced w/2 dealers in my area. first one way high, second one about the same as corriher. corriher price includes delivery to sc.
i'm buying it for me & my grandson to play with. have absolutely no need for it, but we'll have fun learning. will post back in a week or so & let you know how things go.

week 1 - report 1
took delivery monday afternoon (only obvious flaw; backhoe had been painted over in places [few places missed] but it seems ok. demo??) grandkids loved it & I was pretty impressed. we've dug, pushed, moved, everthing we could see. grandson (9) dug 75'trench from pumphouse to horsepen by himself. i'd just drive forward when he told me.
POSITIVES: corriher made mistake & put loader & backhoe on unit w/supesteer - i had opted for non/ss. after 1 week, ss is the best thing about tractor (i got it at a deal, but it's worth $5000 extra. would not buy another w/o it.)
we have sandy soil, but backhoe is very strong. hydrostatic is wonderful. it's just a nice tractor.
NEGATIVE: even tho ps fluid is full, it sounds like power steering fluid is completely out (but, steers great)
it's hard to get it to go in gear (grandson has terrible time)
also - grandkids want to stay up here all the time. have to feed them 3 meals a day. when will the "new" wear off ....
