After all of the discussion lately on the TC40 cup holder, I thought I'd post a photo of my TC18 cup holder. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I had to upgrade from the one that came with the tractor. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
You would think New Holland could have put on a standard cup holder on a $8000 tractor! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

I posted mine about a year ago, but I have white hair, so I'm allowed to tell my stories more than once. I favor 2-liter bottles of Diet Pepsi. This little insulated bag hangs from a small bungi cord wrapped around the steering column.

AndyM,

I do have a patent on that cup holder. Of which under them terms you are not allowed to use that idea without royalties to me /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif So you can send payment to me at any time.


Gee and here I thought someone came up with a good idea for my 29D I will have to try it.

For 50 cents worth of resin, they could have molded a cup holder into the plastic where I circled. I don't know why they chose to scrimp on a cup holder. Putting on a simple item like that sure would have made a lot of happy customers! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I see the new TZ18 and TZ24 SUB compacts have cupholders though-- why are they more deserving? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I was visiting an AGCO dealer and we were discussing the ST35. When I asked him if it came with a cup holder, he said, "Well, if it doesn't, I'll put a couple on for you wherever you want them."

That's a good dealer! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
