I just traded my New Holland tc40da/with cabin, I had a radio in it, but it was so noisy that I did not use it. Will it be the same with the 5460L, primary use is for snow blowing.
Also, is there something I should be aware about this new tractor.
any comments will be greatly appreciated

Excellent choice, that would be the machine I'd go with if I were to replace the current one. My understanding is that there is decent sound deadening in the cab already. You could also add dynamat to thinner areas, or areas where you hear sound coming through.

Shouldn't be problematic, Wilfire, also a Canadian, uses an L5740 for snow blowing, check out his mods, really, really nice.

thank you bota driver and triple r, the new tractor will be delivered this coming friday, before i install a radio i will check the noise coming into the cabin and decide if I install a radio. otherwise I will continue to use my headphone radio wich is not bad, but reception is sometime erratic.
