Price Check Yet another TC30 pricing check

Ryno1 · Mar 8, 2006

TC30, 7308FEL, 3x9, 5 ft brushhog cutter, and 16ft trailer usually lists for around $16,500 here. Figure the trailer at $1000 and cutter at $800. Ask the dealer about the Brushhog brand backhoe, my dealer said they were better then the NH version and priced at $6500 a year ago. Be sure and get the subframe mount whichever backhoe you go with.
You will like the way the TC30 works. Not as comfy and dressed up as some of the others but a working little tractor. Good luck and have fun

Jim,

Good point. I have been checking into the Woods BH. I like the way it attaches to the tractor better and the curved boom is a nice feature (as well as more power on the 8 ft. version). It is a bit more expensive but only a couple hundred bucks.

I will continue to look at the non NH options.

Thanks,

Ryno1,

Thanks for the information. Looks like my initial quote remains about $1,000 high. I'll keep working on them. Perhaps if I can't get them to come down on the "main" items I can get them to toss in a couple add-ons.

I like the free 50 hour service idea, free delivery is already included, and they tossed in CC in the rears. I'd sure like to have a thumb added to the hoe, maybe I can get them to toss that in for free and give me a real good deal on some bucket teeth.

Thanks Terry.

Terry,

As a word of endorsement for the TC30, I purchased one in Dec and love it.

I went with the Woods 1009 FEL for the greater specs. You may be able to get a package deal if purchasing the woods BH at the same time. The Woods FEL came with bucket level indicator and on board stand for detachment.

I had the dealer add a true (non diverter) 3rd function (controls on the loader handle) to the front of the loader for a grapple, and one rear remote. Total cost delivered with HST filled rears (R4) was 16400.

Again, very happy with the purchase. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Hiya Tin,

When I purchased my TC30 I believe I paid around 16,000 to 16,500 with 7308 FEL and HST with R4's (I did however have 2 trade-ins which probably affected the price also).
Some will say this is way high but I like the dealer and they will do anything for you and have a well rounded service department so to me it's worth it.
If your not comfortable with the dealer you probably won't be happy after the sale if you need him again. If you are happy and it won't break you, go for it.
I have a woods 7500 hoe with subframe and 2 buckets that I purchased used from my dealer. It was only a year old and I lucked out, don't usually find used like new hoes. I believe I picked that up for $5,800 installed.
If you do go with the TC30 I know you will be happy. It truly is a sweet ride. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Good Luck with whatever you decide.

( I'd sure like to have a thumb added to the hoe.)
I am wondering who makes a thumb for the New Holland hoes as I just put a deposit on a used 757 model and would like a thumb. Thanks!

I purchased a tc-30 with 7308 fel and 758 hoe 4wd 9x3 trans with turf tires unloaded. they are mounting the hoe and am expecting it back in a day or so. I had the tractor for a week while they were waiting for the sub fame and backhoe to come in. After tax, total price was 23,950 delivered. I have been talking to some new holland dealers and i decided to pay a little more and go through my local dealer for the support they provide. They get kind of offended if you order on line and expect to use up their time answering questions and support. I have heard new holland is implementing some changes regarding this. My dealer has been great, like i said they even delivered my tractor for me to play with for a week then picked it up and will deliver it again after the hoe is installed.

ps. for the 3 hours i have used it lol it has been a blast.

What do you mean by "new holland is implementing some changes regarding this"???

Bob, That is what i was told repeatedly by service and sales guys. That the dealers have been complaining. One of the items you can expect is having to pay upfront for warrenty item repair labor until new holland has reimbursed you. There were other things as well. I did not recieve specifics, just in general new holland was trying to address this complaint from the local dealers. I am a novice at the whole tractor thing so if I am misunderstanding something than I apologize.

just what I heard, and was one of the deciding factors, and the fact it is for my buisness and not paying sales tax would come back to bite me.
