New Holland Days??

[IH3444]

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has bought a New Holland Tractor during the late winter (Feburary time frame?) and possibly how much you might have saved? I am specifically interested in the TC35A with SS. I have also been looking at the Kioti DK45S, but the loader is such a turn off for many reasons. I don't like the old style boom, the bucket is shallow, the 3pt hitch only lifts 300lbs more 24" behind the pivot than the TC35A. I do like the very stout frame of the Kioti, the rear arm to allow you to adjust the 3 pt hitch from the rear. Also the Kioti has wonderful clearance around the rear tires for snow chains. Anyway I'm rambling on......IH3444

Just happened to be "shopping" myself. The NH TC35A spec. sheet lists 2025# @ 24" behind balls while Kioti spec. sheet lists 2654# @ 24" aft of hitch. Got these off web within the last couple of days. Decisions! Decisions!

Oldtimer, I was using the TC40A specs for the 3 pt hitch. The hydraulic pressure is set lower for the TC35a, but when adjusted to the TC40-45 spec it will lift just as much. I do like the Kioti very much, wish it had a sloped down boom like the New Holland, I would buy the Kioti then.
