Sad Days Ahead

Well.....Just went by the dealer. Stopped in to see when my TC54DA is gettin' here. They had told me it would be this week. He told me that they can't build them fast enough. That it'll be January. WHY LORD? WHY?
Now I have to wait another two months! BooHoo

LOL I wanna see one of those. Your dealer needs to look around at other dealers for one. I know my dealer has a couple in stock.

I haven't seen any. I am talking about one with a Cab. I forgot to mention that earlier. He said they are "ballparking" it to be the frist of January. But, That it could come in earlier. I have know my dealer for 12 years now. I have full trust in him. I feel sure that if he could, He'd have one here tomorrow. Have you or anyone else seen one with the cab? He told me that there were only four sent to the southeast. One in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Virgina.

I know where there is a 2005 used one with low hours, HD Quick Attach bucket, wheel weights, and one rear remote. Forget the exact price but it was in the 23,000 neighborhood.

You did transpose that "5" and "4" didn't you? I'm assuming you meant TC45DA since I haven't heard of a cab for the TC55DA.

LOL!! Sorry bout that Jinman. Got a little fast with my typin'. haha Yes it is a TC45DA w/ cab. Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't see it. hahaha

But this reminds me. I've been reading up in here about the difference between the 45 and 40. All I'll be doing is mowing. Finish and rotary. I will do some light box blade work from time to time. It seems to me that I should save the $1300.00 difference and look into a 40. What do y'all think. Thay have given me a quote of $23,800.00 for the 45. Thats without any negotiating. So I already know I could get the 40 for $22,500.00.

The TC40 makes better sense to me unless you feel the need for more HP at the PTO. It hasn't been an issue with us.

I'd buy the TC40DA and go away with a $1,300 smile on my face.
