I have a 2006 GC2310 TLB with just under 100 hrs. Overall, I love this machine, but after looking at the new ones, I got say I like some of the upgrades. Especially the hose hookups being moved, like the New Holland. Also, I HATE the single HST pedal with the brake just above it, sometimes I hit the brake and HST pedal at the same time, moving the brake to the other side was a great improvement, and the tiny little emergency break lever change is great too. The backhoe is only aesthetic I think. I know these are mainly creature comfort issues, so I don't know that mine is worht in trade. Like I said only 100 hrs and excellent condition. A little paint wore where the hose touched the engine cover. Chances are it'll cost me about $4,000. I can't justify the money for those features, yet...Anyone have any thoughts or anything else I have missed?
