I sold my boat and am buying a td24da. The dealer here in Alaska has been and is very helpful and friendly. This goes a long way with me. I have looked at Kubota and Deere but found myself at the New Holland dealer more often. This is my first tractor if i dont count a 1940 9n ford i never used for anything other than to drive in circles. A toy and nothing else.
This tractor will be different. I am going to do tilling in my area. I work at a rental yard part time. I have been with this company for 18 years most of it full time untill i decided to go for the money and work offshore on an oil platform. Now i work at the rental yard because i like it not cause i have to be there. Where i am going with this is the rental market for tillers is very busy. We no longer rent tractor tillers anymore since Honda does not sell riding equipment. We are a Honda dealer.
We get many calls daily looking for a small tractor to till with. Most of these people do not have a garden, they are just redoing or starting a lawn or etc. I do not want to rent my tractor but will be more than happy to till for them.
Another interesting thing about my area is that there have been about 1100 new home built in the last 5 years. None of them were sold with yards. I am seriously looking at the t5 Harley power rake. Most of these yard have been dozer smoothed but that is all.
What size tiller can i run on the 24DA? Has anyone out there used the Harley power rake? I will have a loader on the tractor first thing. I may get a box rake and a post hole auger before i leave the dealership. On a side note The dealer is selling the 24da with a loader for $15,300.00 I live in Alaska so the price may be higher than the states due to freight charges. I would be interested in the cost for people south of Alaska. Sorry for the long post, they wont all be this way, just the first one.
