There are numerous TN75 (and other TH owners) on this board. You will hear very few complaints. I've had 2, the latest since 2002. It a TN75D, I have the 16x16 electro hydro shuttle trans and love it. I think it will suit your needs well. Post any specific questions.

I use my tractors hard.
My TN75 has been darn near unstoppable. (TN75DA (cab), 2007 16x16 power shuttle)
I did have to replace the battery in it this last week, I don't think that's a big deal.
I had two hydraulic hoses get cut (they were routed wrong at the factory), and that was the total warranty work I've had in 2 years.
I put it on a PTO dyno, it made 69hp. It's only rated at 67 and I'm at 5000 feet. It's a great motor.
Well designed cab, very ergonomic and easy to get around in, easy to maintain. (unlike the TC cabs which are LTO)
The quick lift feature is awesome, it's my favorite thing on the whole tractor. The 3 point hitch is well designed, incredibly strong and easy to hook up.
It's made in Italy and by far it's been my most reliable piece of equipment, how ironic is that?
The loader is pretty slow. It lifts what it should, but it's slow. But I don't think ag tractor loaders are all that fast so I don't think that's a deal killer.

I have a 2006 TN75DA with the 16x16 power shuttle. Perfect hay tractor. They have a very good reputation and are one of the most common utility tractors around.

we have 4 TN75 all 4x4 with cabs..we use them for grading..light clearing the one with loader..finsh mowing in parks...light/rought bushhog with 7ft..8ft..15ft batwing..also 2 are set up with duals wheels for slope/canals mowing.So yes I like them and looking at getting another one.We have put them in places they sould not be but my saying show me the money. And before anybody say something we stay on top of all maintance because we do put the in places no one else will.As anything bad just the normal wear and tear..good luck

I like your TN with the duels, what size and brand are the front tires on that tractor. They look like forestry tires and wheels.
Thank you
