I’m looking at buying a New Holland 345D with the 8 speed power shuttle transmission. This is an Industrial tractor usually used by State or local Municipalities or contractors. I do a good bit of loader work moving materials and snow, so believe it will work well for this. But I want to be sure it will be good for mowing with a brush hog as well. I have read that a torque converter transmission may not be ideal. ? But they may have been discussing one of the other transmission options. Here are the transmission options: New Holland 345D Transmissions 8-speed power shuttle w/torque converter 4-speed torque converter 8-speed gear maybe they were speaking about the 4 speed torque converter? If someone is knowledgeable with this could you explain and tell me if this would be a good mower as well? I appreciate it.
