Tractor Sizing $20,000 to $25000???

[yoder]

I have a NH TC 30, I have been thinking about trading. I would like more bucket Capcity rear remotes and either a 12/12 shuttle or Hydro. Have not
decided yet. Not interested in a bigger NH because of plastic body. The TC 30 is all metal. The only ground engaging equipment I use is a 5 foot Disc. I have considered the following.

1635 35 HP FEL Cap 1900lbs
1643 43 HP FEL Cap 1900lbs More hp same capcity.
1648 48 HP FEL Cap 2500lbs More Hp than I need. Big Loader Capcity

My TC 30 is 25 pto hp and 850lbs FEL loader Cap. I have never really needed more HP even bushhogging. With this in mind I feel the 1635 would be a good upgrade and over doubles the FEL Cap. It is just hard not to want the
1648. I do not know much about the 1500 series. I thought they were discontinued. Should I consider those too? Any other thoughts? There is a lot to consider.

Thanks Yoder

Going from a TC30 to a 1635 is a big jump in chassie size and I would think if you never maxed out your hp on the NH, then the MF1635 should do you REAL well!
R U trading in the NH?

Yeah, I would trade just the Tractor and loader. They are both in Excellent shape and I still have about 6 months left on a Transferable CNH Extended warrenty. It is a 2006 With about 275 hours. I bought it new and have serviced every 50 Hr. Plus more on Grease fittings. If you would like to make me an offer, PM me.


Thanks

Hi. I own a 1643. If you look to a 1635 and a 1643 side by side they are almost the same (1643 a bit longer), the main difference is the engine a 3 cyl. on the 1635 compared to a 4 cyl. on the 1643. So maybe a 4 cyl. is a little more stable and less vibration than a 3 cyl. (my opinion) . The 1648 and 1643 have the same engine so the 1643 will never be put to its limit ( my opinion ). The 1643 is heavier so more pulling and stability.............but I do not want to spend YOUR MONEY, both are great tractors ....Good luck ....YOU KNOW your needs better than everyone and if 35hp is enough for you and your needs well.....GO FOR IT :laughing::laughing:.

I went for the 1643 also with the power shuttle, I had the 1528 and you just can't compare a 28hp to a 43 hp. man I am luvin' it. even the comfort is something to enjoy. I almost went with the 1635, but really wanted the 4 cyl.
