I'm gonna guess 125-150k maybe? The farm I used to work for bought a TL90 and TS110 new and they were both pieces of chit. Endless problems, always something wrong with them. It makes me wonder if New Holland even tests the products they produce.

not exactly sure what it cost, but i think the sticker price is around $150-$160K.

ive never been around the TL or TS series but im surprised to hear that they had so many problems.

im convinced that people who own JD machinery dont work on it because green equipment is TERRIBLE to work on. JD even sells special wrenches and stuff to take their tractors apart.

actually, every JD fan that i can get into a ford/new holland tractor actually likes the NH better. they never end up buying one though, its like the green has some sort of power over them. maybe they like the really expensive green paint. :D


haha. hey colby, can you price me a set of LT elka quad rates, an IMS bumper, and a full set of klaws for this thing?

Sweet. We rented one like that last year during Sugar Cane season because we were a tractor short of what we needed with our newly acquired land during harvest season. It was a good tractor.

As finding John Deere's hard to work on, I find them no more difficult than any other tractor I've worked on. And we've had Case/IH; JD, NH, Ford, and Farmall (before being bought out)

So what are you farming out there? We got a mix of Sugarcane, Corn, Soybeans, Milo, and Rice down on ours. Cool to see another Farmer out there :cool:

if you were black you could get 55 inch spinners. no just kidding about that but that is sick

03-30-2005, 04:04 PM
55" spinners would kill you..doubt they'd spin well either at 25 MPH

were caterpillar people on this farm and let me tell you one thing if you had that narrow tall tractor out in the hills we farm on you'd roll it in no time at all. I slide our crawlers along the sides of hill so steep you can hardly walk up them all day long our combine is a 1470 international with levelars on it to keep it on the hills. With them hydraulics we could put spinners on it fit right with the g-money crowd though, But for flat land that tractor is definatley sick
:macho

we grow corn and soybeans and raise about 1,000 head of beef cattle each year. we also have about 130 cows that we breed and then raise the calves. for pasture, we have 280 acres of rolling hills and timber ground which makes great riding ground.

this is just one of about 10 tractors that we own, but its the newest and nicest. comes with a hefty price tag though

we're still running old steel track d5 crawlers our newest equipment other than our trucks is our combine the international it's an 84, you may find this funny though we had a truck running like crap so we pulled it apart to rebuild and every thing was looking ok and me and my dad were thinking we wasted our time until we saw the pistons.. the #8 piston was detonated worse than any 2 stroke quad or snomobile piston I have ever seen just about crapped my self when I saw that
