<font color="blue">My question is, why bother spending the extra money for a TC24, when a TC18 would do the same thing for less money?
Out of curiousity, what would I have gained by buying a TC24? For that matter, what would be different if Inspector507 or OkeeDon opted for a TC24 instead?

If it were available when I bought my TC18, I would have bought the TC24. Mowing up hill I can run out of power both finish mowing (60" MMM) and field mowing (48" rotary cutter).
I couldn't justify 2K more for the TC21, but 2,300 more for the TC24 gets you 33% more HP.
I'd love to get the 12LA, my 7106 is a huge improvement over a wheelbarrow & shovel, but I've always got the itch for more power.
