John Deere 110 Compact TLB

[Tags]

Fellas,
My salesman called me today and said he wanted me to hear something,so he went into his voicemail and played me a message from the Deere rep.....".....Tartaglia's 110 LB will be shipped later this week and should arrive at your dealership on Monday or Tuesday....." Man,I can only hope that this all holds true,if not you guys may be hearing about me on a national news broadcast.....".....and finally today,a man in the Connecticut area was found rocking back and forth and drooling at a local tractor dealer mumbling something about a 110 tlb and a JD conspiracy........."/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif Bushy,I can't believe you didn't call your dealer today,or drive there just to check,I hope you hear somethin' tomorrow,cause I'll be lookin foreward to seeing a new thread under "Owning/Operating" "Finally got my 110" Hope to hear something good soon and by the way,good luck on gettin' any sleep tonight!!

Must be you got your dealer a little concerned that he's playing you his voicemail! It's May 28th and no tractor yet but we started the paper work. Deere's interest rates are 8.9% if I finance over 25 thou and 9.9 % under. I did drive by this evening, hoping the operator's manual was hanging on the door. If the trucker left Friday I might be a little concern with his where abouts by now. He could be in Mexico by now! As far as a new thread how the dag blast do ya do that!

I am about to order a 110 myself, loaded like yours, probably from stanton equipment in East Windsor.
What is your phone number, I would like to talk to you about yours when you get it. my email address is kenkaplan@pcworldwide.com, I work in Manchester, CT.

Kenka,
I'm pretty sure Stanton equipment already has 3 110's so you could probably drive up there and pick one up,thats what I've heard anyway,but I also heard that they are early production machines and need the hydraulic pumps replaced because of a machining defect from the factory,again this is all hear-say so I can't confirm or deny it.I have heard only good things about Stanton and none bad so thats a good start!

I was up at stantons, they have two there, one is sold, one is a stripped demo unit.

I want to order it loaded with all the options, 4 in 1 bucket, thumb, box-blade, etc. etc.

I considered the L-48, or a larger tractor like the 5420 or 6000 series.

It seems to me this 110 is unmatched in flexibility and value for a multitude of applications. Kind of a swiss army knife of compact TLB or tractors......

Kenkaplan,
I was ready to seal the deal on an L48 about 4 months ago till I saw a small picture of the 110,nothing against Kubota they make a great product and I have owned a few of em,but the 110 makes the L48 look real klunky,as far as performance,I only had a chance to run a 110 for an hour or so months ago but first impressions were much smoother than an L48,and the 110 offers sooo many more options,the major downside to the whole thing is the wait,but its all ways neat to be the first kid on the block with a new toy /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

It's here. I Drove it. It's been here since Wed eve after they closed. Do you think that they would have called? I'm hot on the trail. I'll check in this evening. It is a big rig and a real looker. May 31,02 I got my baby home. It's not one thing like the equipment I am accustom to operating. It is a nimble machine, though I'm still grabbing for the shifter which there is not .The reverse pedal has an audible back up alarm which is helping to train me. A seven year old could operate this machine. More on that later. I'm still getting use to the new method. What else can I say. Bushy

Congratulations on your tractor. I hope it's everything you thought it would be. As for mine I haven't heard a word about when it would be in. I'm about ready to tell them to shove it. I know I can live without it. The thing may not come in for quite a while anyways. As you can tell I'm pretty p----d! Have fun with it and work the crap out of it.

Bushy, can you tell me what date you orderred your tractor
and which dealer you got it from. My dealer said he would try to find out how the orders are being shipped. As you probably can guess, I'm getting somewhat annoyed with the whole process. I'm stuck up here without a tractor just when I could realy use it. Thanks. Let us know how yours is running.
