The Deere 329E went down on a project for a friend so we rented a Takeuchi TL8 to keep the project going. First time running a Takeuchi! Music: www.bensound.com
I'm sure they probably are and I've heard lots of good things about them, I just had a few small gripes about the design compared to what I'm used to in my Deere
I have ran many deere loaders, and I can't for the life of me understand why you like them so much ,I hate them I think they are terrible to operate and don't last.i do like a lot of other john deere equipment though.ran a tl8 a little and thought it was far superior to deere
I love your videos and I respect your brand choice but Takeuchi machines are far superior to Deer in every aspect and they don't break down all the time. You would need a TL10v2 to compare to your Deee machine to be apples to apples. The TL8 is a very basic machine.
If I ever upgrade to a larger machine I'm gonna check out the TL12V2, my Deere isn't perfect either and I have complaints with it as well. I've heard good things about Takeuchi I just had some gripes with this machine compared to my Deere.
@@idigit4967 The tl8 is a GREAT grading tractor not at all a basic machine. I wouldn't get the tl10 the tl8 is as good. The tl12r2 I have is fantastic also. The parts can be a bit pricey. The tl8 with hydraulic over hydraulic can't be beat for grading. You can amp up the hydraulics to make the response outstanding.
@@idigit4967 The power it has it just needs to be amped up.plus you need a new model. The default hydraulics is set low for some reason. I have used pretty much ever machine in 30 years and the tl8 out preformed them all. The step is lower on the newer machines
@@idigit4967 As far as a tl12r2 vs the v2 unless you are picking up really heavy loads with forks or loading higher trucks the v2 is not worth the extra 10k.
