I owned a TC40D and a TC40DA from about 2002 to 2007. I thought they were great tractors. The visibility from the operator's position to the front of the tractor I think was unmatched. The four cylinder Shibaura engine was so smooth and was much quieter than many of the newer engines.I wish they still used Shibaura. Those tractors had far nicer features. I really wanted one back in 2008 but out of the 4 New Holland dealers within 7 hours of me that I visited, none of them seemed interested in selling a compact tractor at all.
I didn't realize the Shibaura relationship started back when they were still Ford tractors.
Not sure how I feel about the new LS built units. I hear a lot of bad reviews on LS.
