| JD110 TBL update? Does anyone know if JD plans on updating the 110 TBL anytime soon? Have been thinking about purchasing one, but didn't to buy one and a newer model come out within a year. |

| Re: JD110 TBL update? Haven't been around these parts for quite a spell.... read your post and wondered if you heard something in the wind that I had no idea about!
It's head to head with Kubota's new L45 and if you're gonna go all the way to a M59 - might as well get a JD 310.
400 hrs on my 110 right now (bought in March '08) and it's a great machine!
Although I nearly dropped it into the hole with the neighbor's horse as I was lowering her into the ground this past Sunday --- that was a HEAVY horse --- nonetheless, AFTER I lowered the stabilizers; the proceedings went to conclusion.

| Re: JD110 TBL update? Stopped by one of the larger dealers and he had not heard anything about changes. Said the October meeting is where they would announce changes on this size.
Also looking at the M59, but cannot yet justify the extra $10,000 for it. Maybe if I win the lottery.   |

| Re: JD110 TBL update? Ak is right if your going to spend that kind of money for the M59 you might as well get a 310 or other full size hoe. They need to offer the 110 with a cab option.

I believe LAURIN makes a nice cab for the 110... |

| Re: JD110 TBL update? It will be interesting to see what changes are made if and when Deere does. I could easily see having the updated cruise and loadmatch features. After almost 5 years I can say I am very satisfied with my 110.
I like everything about the Laurin cab with the exception of the door latches and window latches these could be much better. But heh I have experience with that my dad had Chrysler Imperials when I was a kid, they didn't have door latches either.

| Re: JD110 TBL update? The cab for the 110 is at least a foot taller than the 4520 cab, you would have a difficult time changing seat positions without the extra height.

| Re: JD110 TBL update? The 310 is a great machine, but not something I need. Want a machine that I can mow some with, landscaping and just general chores around the place. That is why I'm looking at the 110, M59 and a Grand L5740 with a Bradco backhoe. |

If that is what you want the 110 tlb is hard to beat. With diverter valves and telescopic links, topntilt hitch, Laurin Eclipse cab, heat and air,7 function hoe, aux hydraulic loader circuit, it is very flexible and handles a lot of tasks to my satisfaction.
