Actually, I think the TL is substantially more tractor. Especially with the 24 speed option.markv3093 said:Thanks for the inputs .I guess half dozen one way and 6 the other.

mark.r said:I was at the local dealership Sat. afternoon picking some literature and they had a (bare with me as this all gets so confusing) TN and TD setting right next to each other. Then a T7000 (MONSTER), T6000, and then a TS-115. It was a bummer that there was no TL because I "think" that is the model that fits for me as far as frame and size is concerned. Horsepower does not seem to be and issue in any of them. I was aware of the replacement 4000 and 5000 models and asked when they would get those on lots and he said anytime now. What I discovered was that I felt the (based on what I was showed and told) the 4000 will be a bit small (light) frame wise. It is "suppposed" to be like the TN. While he 5000 will be the TL replacement. I'm not sure where the TD fits in. It seems like a low cost TL??? Of course you NH guys knows this but it was somewhat eye opening to see the actual difference in real life . . . especially setting next to a T6000. I'am really looking forward to seeing the T5000 models to be honest.

The TDD is more of an economy tractor and feels physically bigger then the TL but smaller then the TS (T6000). I am not sure if the TDD is going to be renamed but if they do I would imagine it will be something similar to John Deere where the TDD would become the T5005 or somthing like that and the TT would be the T4005 series.
The TS/T6000 is a beautiful tractor and in my mind and very few people will disagree with this, it has the best cab of any tractor in its class. That cab is amazing and you feel at home in it. CNH really did their homework when they designed the TS-A cab. I would easily give up my 7710 for a T6000 except for when I ask for a price and see it![]()
The TL is bigger then the TN as my pics showed but it isn't a huge jump and it is still as nimble as the TN. The TS/T6000 is a bigger jump over the TL then the TL is over the TN in size and you can feel the size difference easily.
slowzuki said:The TD I had looked at seemed to be the same size as the similar hp TL model. Seems to be very similar to some Case/IH econo models, maybe the same unit.
The older small TS's were quite similar to the larger TL's but the TS's are a much higher spec machine.
God only knows how you keep track.Robert_in_NY said:The TD-D is the same as the Case-IH JX

slowzuki said:Figured it was, neighbours are taking delivery of a JX-70 I think to replace their Case / IH 585 and 485's and got a pretty good price, 35,000 w cab, mfwd and Frey loader. Not sure what I think of it yet. Didn't think much of the TDD I had looked at last year.
