We have a TL130 that’s 13 years old has 8,000 hrs on it and it’s been very little trouble. We have a TL230 series 2 that’s 7 years old and has 6,000 hrs on it and it’s been a little problematic with electrical issues but still very reliable. We just purchased a new TL12R2 today and look forward to working it everyday. Takeuchi makes a really tough CTL, hard to beat.
I have 2 tl8s for grading yards and such and 2 tl12 r2 for backfills and grading. Just can't beat the power and the reaction time. Parts get pricey but haven't really had to many problems at all with them. They need to get a better backup camera. Can almost backfill as fast as a high lift with the tl12.
Not a fan of TL 10s, they need to up the HP on them, TL 8 or TL12 better options in my opinion. They kept the HP low so you don't need def. Needs to be 90 to 95 HP
@@lazyhoundfarm5563 Thank you so much for uploading these Tl12V videos. I just got one. My first piece of equipment. And really learn a lot from your content! Much success and luck to you and yours!
Hi Bud, Thank you for your videos they are very helpful. I am thinking of purchasing one this week and I wanted to get your feedback on the TL12v2 before I pull the trigger on the purchase this week, Thx JP.
@@JOEPDIAZ Just bought the TL12R2 and couldn't be happier. Tremendous power, excellent controls, moves tons of dirt fast. He is right to compare it to a tracked dozer for work capacity and its much quicker. You won't be disappointed...

It's crazy how many hours can be put on these machines, where other brands could only dream of.
I wish they would work on making their cabs nicer, at least the seat. Great machines, but like you said, cab leaves some to be desired.
Talk-Uh-Hoochi!
I wish Takeuchi made a TL10r2, the 12 gets a bit too heavy to pull with a bumper pulled trailer.
this video was about a year ago, hows it holding up?
How’s it treated you a year later? I’ve been looking at a TL10V2 vs the competition with a lot of positives.

I don’t think you could buy a better track loader than the tackeuchi
By any chance have made an updated video after using it for a while?
New Holland
