TC24DA
I think my dealer is playing games with me. I am trying to get a good price, but I feel there is no flex. I cannot find list prices anywhere for NH, even at newholland.com I need to know what is a fair price to pay and how much room to move the dealer has.

ALSO: I know that Tractor Supply is the Wal-Mart (sells crap)for tractor imps. But how does their attachments compare to Land Pride for durability ?

If I recall correctly I paid $10,600 delivered to my door for a TC24D (June 2003), with NO FEL or mower deck.

As for the TSC implements, I think it depends on what your use is as to if they are a good value. A heavily used implement that will see many hours over many years may warrent buying the best you can afford. An implement, used lightly or occasionally, or for a small project, might warrent buying a lower grade "value" priced tool. I have a TSC (Speeco) PHD and it works great, my neighbor drilled a bunch of holes for a couple large decks, I use it with a 12" bit for planting small trees. It is good enough for what its level of use, but if I was a fence contractor or landscaper I might opt for a heavier built unit. My mower deck is a heavily built Befco Finish Mower, I'm happy with the performance and I expect it to last another decade or more, the price was steep but the value is in how much work it can do.

I reallly don't think list prices are going to help you at all. I have found that while the list price stays the same from area to area the selling prices change a lot. In the midwest you can find pretty good prices. From this forum I have noticed in the Northeast they go for a lot more. Just my observation. Visit a couple of dealers even if you have to drive some and you may be set on New Holland which is great, I own one but check the competitors such as Kubota and John Deere and use their prices to get your dealer down. And also don't be afraid to buy a bit aways from your place just have that dealer explain to you how he handles pick up and deliveries. You may find he doesn't charge for it.

As far as implements from TSC. Yes you will find they are cheaper. But overall for what the most of us use here on TBN they will work just fine for you. My neighbor has this real expensive brush mower that I have used a few times. It mows really nice while I also used another nieghbors King Kutter., (TSC unit) and you could tell the difference. But for a $1,100.00 dollars more and only using it once or twice a year I will take the King Kutter. Before you buy, get your dealers to let you rent one of each and then you decide if the money is worth it or not.

I took home a new TC24DA today. I got the NH 12LA loader, 60" NH belly mower and a 60" land price back blade and a 54" land pride box blade. For $18,700 I got the entire works, full tank of fuel, industrial tires and rear hydraulics. I feel I got a fair price and my dealer was happy to do business. I priced several other NH dealers and all were at least $500 higher. This is a very nice tractor, I moved quite a bit of snow already tonight with it, found out how much the loader wont lift and really like the foot pedal hdy control.

That's about the same as I paid for the TC24D in October, set up the same except with turf tires, grill guard, a Woods rear blade and instead of a box blade I have a Woods snowblower with a hydraulic chute. I paid about $500 more than your set up mostly due to the blower. My prices were pre sales tax. Doesn't sound like the DA ran the price up too much. Enjoy it and lets see some pics!
