OK - after several months of reading this forum and lookin and feelin I have decided to go blue. In an effort to be sportmanship like I sent 6 dealers in the area the specs of the tractors I am considering ordering. I figger - let the games begin - and may the best (not necessarily cheapest) man win. At least it's a place to start. I didn't get too specific on the specs - I wanted to see what initiative the different dealers might show. What I'd like is a TN55 in a TC45 body - but what I asked for was pricing on both, comparably rigged, and the equipment to go with 'em. I need a brush hog, box blade, FEL, and post hole digger. I don't need FWD but asked for it on the 45 to get a lil' more pulling umph for stumps. There's quite a difference in the loads the FELs and 3 points will do - but I have no idea what the difference in price is between the 45 and 55 - bigger may be better - but can I afford it? Will the spread in price be a major factor? I'm fixin to find out. I hope to have my order in by April and delivery ... doesn't matter .. It'll spend more time sitting than running until I retire in 55 months (but who's counting) anyway. Wish me luck y'all.
