The New Hollands that I have used in recent years are the TN70 both cab, one 4x4 one 2wd, probably a similar unit to the TN55 you are running.   If they are the same, keep an eye on the  filter just behind the front axle on the passenger side, it's sitting out in the wide open, just waiting for a stick to stab it.

I agree on the Kubota, that it would be nice to get on and off both sides, but I gotta admit, that the ergonomics of the loader controls are about perfect, so I accept the limited passenger side access. I ended up putting a tool bag on just inside the passenger door, and that's were I keep some chains, tools, and extra pins and bolts.  Only time I have run into higher temps have involved the radiator screen plugging up with seeds and debris from mowing in tall grass.  I generally blow it off before the engine gets warm, because I can feel the AC blowing a bit warmer than usual, so I know to blow it out.
