New Holland, Are they asleep at the switch?

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( TC40DA and TC45DA are available with cabs middle of 2006. We just got back from a sales school on them! )</font>
Any word if they will be available as an add-on to 2005 models? I'd love to have a hardtop solution like I have on my old CJ7 Jeep.

Thanks, Jason. It seems you are always on the leading edge of news. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I do know that if they expect to sell a cab in Texas, it will have to be air conditioned. That will scrub a few hp off the engine. Is that possibly the reason the TC35 is not included?

I think so, here in Europe we have a tce.
And he is available in 4 engines: a 40-45-50-55
A cab is always available,but the tce 40 isn't available with a/c.

NH typically does not meet its target introduction dates. Delays of over 12 months are not uncommon.

Europe has very big delays, the tc 40/45 was introduced here in 2002 i think.
And the model with the new hood was introduced in february 2005.
When was the tc 40/45 with the new lights, hood introduced in the USA????

New Holland held some compact tractor customer clinics close to 10 years ago. They took place around the time the Boomers were being introduced with Super Steer. I know one of the people who attended the clinic.

A landscaper attending the clinic asked for a 40-hp. tractor with an air conditioned cab. He was tired of eating dust all day long. Several others at the clinic also felt that an air conditioned cab was a good idea. When my friend relayed the story, I said, "Yeah, the guy would like an air conditioned cab...but would he pay for it?"

Did New Holland have the same reaction as I did? Or is the installation more complicated than I realize?

That's a good question. Surely, they've got to be working on a cab version of their CUT as long as Deere and Agco has. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Maybe they are just waiting to reverse engineer some of those problems that the other brands have already worked out. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
Personally, I'd like to se a red one (CaseIH) with a cab.

Well thank our dealership who is willing to invest in thier salespeople by sending them to all the available schools. (See boss now can I get that raise? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif) However the specs they list show the PTO hp the same as non cab units.

 

[jcollins]

No this would be a factory install only. Or I should say they have not mentioned anything about a field install cab.

Here we are in the middle of '06, any cabs on TC40 yet?
