New Toolcat Purchase

AdmiralS · Feb 22, 2023

Heard from the dealer today. The build date is now showing as January 2024.

Will be interesting to see if that date gets pulled in. A year is a long time to wait!

well you know, hopefully pulled in not pushed out, will it be dated as a 2024 or 2023, had a similar issue with mine and had the paperwork state the year I recieved not the date the order was input, not a big deal but I would have felt it was a year older that I expected

You must really be in love with toolcats. I admire your devotion.

Its funny you say that because I have ZERO patience and am an instant gratification person.

I have always wanted a ToolCat so have regretted not getting one when I bought the Kubota 2 years ago.

I have other toys to play with until the new machine shows up anyway lol

just looked whast people are asking for used Toolcats, 2008 for +60K CDN with 2000 hours, either I have not been looking for a few years or prices on used are insane, there is a 2006 with 7000 hours at 45K, asking price is no means what it sells for but anyone else noticing?

Congrats on the new machine!

It seems like UW56’s are flowing out of the factory as my dealer is getting them in regularly.

Seems like the UW53 is an entirely different story. Checked with them yesterday and my date is still January 2024

Ordered my UW56 beginning of Jan ‘23 and have a build date of July 23. If it holds, I’ll get delivery in August in Wasilla, Alaska. Congrats on your new machine!

Got pricing for my new Toolcat in mid Jan 2023 and was delivered March 24th 2023. Traded in my 2008 Toolcat with 1900hrs. Tires are bigger and seems like it can lift more. The drive by wire is hard to use. Lots of surges in finding a good speed. Road speed is faster. Hard to close the doors because the seals are so tight. Takes for ever to start with the push button start. Have to wait for the complete warm up cycle. Can't use fast speed till the oil warms up. But it does not stink up the shop when moving stuff in and out. The quick tack is so much faster and doesn't move when adjusting the boom. The new bucket is much stronger. Have not found the best setting for digging dirt. Doesn't want to push as hard. Can't spin the wheels. But the traction control works better in greasy mud. I was able to get out of a soft spot without getting stuck. The 2008 Toolcat would have been stuck.
