Howdy!

Was out at my NH dealer on Saturday to pick up a few parts, and we started chatting about new tractors. In the process, I learned two interesting pieces of information:

1. As of this month, there is now available a TC29D gear tractor. It has all the "D" model options, but comes with the standard 9x3 gear tranny. I commented that would be a nice package, and that they need to do that across the entire Boomer line. The dealer agreed and said they've been telling NH the same thing, but that for now, it's only available on the TC29. The dealer also noted that NH was behind schedule on this, as they were originally promised to have these tractors in July, but only just now got pricing.

2. TC48 & TC53 (??) -- They weren't exactly sure of the highest model number tractor, but confirmed that they had received some limited information from NH on these. They are to be a larger chassis tractor than the Class III models, but not as large as the TN series. In addition, they are also working to include a true cab option for these larger tractors that will include AC! Talk about really stretching the "Compact" in "Compact Tractor."

Anyway, Spencer can probably verify a few things, or add info that I might have missed. However, it looks like more good things coming down the pipe from NH.

Best Regards,
Jay

My apologies -- I didn't recall it. I knew there were bigger Boomers coming, but don't remember any specifics. Likewise, never noticed any discussion of a gear-based "D" model. Oh well, chalk me up as behind the curve.

Later,
Jay

See what happens when you get all that seat time, Jerry? And you didn't think there was any down side to owning your tractor! /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

So Spencer...

Do we know anything more about the larger TC's with a cab? My dealer says NH told them "Spring," but that was back in October. Those new orange Grand L's seem pretty nice, but I'm waiting to see what NH is going to offer by way of competition. Any new info or time lines you can divulge?

Best Regards,
Jay

No! nothing new on the tractors.. The big news from New Holland is the line of utility vehicles comming out next fall with an extensive line of attachments for them....These will be similiar to the JD GATOR.

Bummer...

Something along the lines of the Grand L30 cab models would really fit the bill for me. And I love my NH dealer -- great guys. I'd almost feel like a traitor going "Orange" on them.
