TC30

Tryno · Feb 1, 2005

Hi all, like so many others I've been watching, reading and maybe learning. Today I priced a NH TC30, FWD, FEL 7308 w/60" bucket, Std Tranny, industrial tires, trailer, BushHog brush cutter, 60" belly mower for $17,733. Does that sound a little high to you all? Wanted to add a backhoe but he qouted $6500. Thanks Terry

Hey Tryno, I just bought a newTC30 4wd-Ind tires last month with the 7308 FEL. Paid $15,000 even delivered. Was quoted $700 for a new rearmount mower. Hope this helps. Rudy

Thanks Rudy, thats close. He broke the tractor and loader out at $12000 and $3500 but not delivered, which doesn't matter much since he's only 40 miles away.

Took delivery of mine 6/04
TC30 Hydro, R4's loaded, FWD, Delivered 140 miles (no transpo agreement for warranty service tho) $12,900
Woods 1009 loader, think it's 60" bucket, hooks welded on, $3,000. Saved couple $ here cause its not an exact color match..last years paint or something...mostly dirt color now so not an issue for me /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif.

Only thing I would have done dif, take it to a welder and have some 2 or 3 by angle welded onto the top edge of the bucket and moved the hooks inboard or outboard a little, chain tends to get between the bucket and cylinder if it flops over behind the bucket and of course the fittings/hoses are right there... been lucky so far but it's on my list of things to tend to. Maybe some kind of piece that stiks up behind the hook that won't interfere with hooking chain, but will keep it from falling all the way behind the bucket.

I didn't price the belly mower so no idea there.

Just picked up a 16ft+2ft dove bumper pull w/ 2 3500# axels 1 brake, breakaway installed, wood deck, new tires...$1800, wanted 20ft but didn't feel I could swing the cost dif, same for gooseneck, besides, tho my haul is long, 120 miles eachway, it's only gotta be made bout 4-5 times a year. The trailer dealer has a rep for having best price for hundreds of miles. I could have done a hundred or so better on ebay maybe...but would have more than ate that up in fuel to go get it.

Hope this gives you some help...

I can't remember right off how much the hydro added, but it sounds like you are in the right ballpark anyway.

Sounds very fair. Is the quoted price for all the implements plus trailer? I paid 15,000 for mine with toothbar and canopy, filled tires and HD bucket. I would recommend the HD bucket over the standard duty version.

Which backhoe was the quote for? If you want one I suggest getting it now. I decided to wait and wish I would have gotten it all at once.

As for the belly mower, I don't recall the price now but they aren't cheap. Also with the gear tractor the dealer will have to add the mid PTO for the deck.

So, when's the delivery date? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
