NH TS110 - Opinions before I open the wallet!

Hi folks, I've been shopping around for a larger loader tractor. Tossed around a couple Masseys (6180 and 4270), a TM115, and I think I've finally settled on a TS110 for $36K. 3500 hours, powershift.

Any final opinions before I open the wallet? I've heard these are pretty good, reliable tractors. Will be using it for hay and some spring plowing/planting work.
 
They are very similar to the 40 series Fords, which go to 10,000
hours with good maintenance. RodinNS has a TS 90 I think that he
likes very much. Unlike the post on newagtalk, the TS has nothing
in common with a TL other than the cab. The TL is a much lighter
Fiat tractor and was the 35 series under Ford/NH.
 
Only real thing I hear about is sporadic electrical problems with the transmission. I know of people with 10K hours on 40 series tractors that use that basic transmission and no problems at all...
TS is a good tractor. My TS90 has a mechanical 12x12 transmission. Shifting is not real great on that one because of the exposed linkages... and various cables need replacing from time to time but overall it's mostly fairly small problems. Other than one hydraulic pump under warranty it's had no major problems in ~3500 hours.
