Thanks to the dealerships that are providing equipment for our buddy to show us

I like to earn about the Bobcats looking forward to watching some of your older videos also thank you 🙏

[@bucklemon9945]

As a mechanic and growing up on a farm I believe the clutch pedal is there primarily because it is a non live pto tractor. Also referred to independent pto, it is carried over from the manual transmission design and if it was offered only as a hydro they would remove the clutch pedal altogether and install an electro-hydraulic switch for the PTO.

[@jimmerrithew453]

Hi Brock. I was impressed by the folding ramps on the flatbed which delivered the tractors.

[@RockhillfarmYT]

Me too. Runs off a little remote control.

[@tomahawkjo8574]

Would love to see max lift capacy with the loader and three point!

[@RockhillfarmYT]

I conducted that test today with the smaller tractor. Also pushing into rock piles and spreading driveway stone.

[@jmoll26]

These are little toys, you will miss that skidsteer

[@franktucker8383]

I have been cutting hay for about 25 years now. Not sure what hay equipment you have or are considering, or how many acres you have to cut. The utility tractor is hands down the best choice for hay. It's weight being needed to handle the baler and mower. Compact tractors will run the equipment if the hp is enough, but they will be pushed around alot by the baler. If you have any steep slopes it can also be a safety concern. All the other work is easiest with a hydrostat. That's why I have 2 tractors. I have enjoyed watching you through this process and look forward to what you decide.

[@Todd-The-Dodge-Guy]

If you’re doing round bales I don’t recommend using anything less than a 85hp tractor. It will strain that small tractor and wear it out a lot faster

[@Cowboy_Steve]

Howdy Brock! Hooodoggy! Gonna have some fun on the property over the next few weeks! 🤠

[@NYTROeast]

I'm not 100% on this MY Branson has it too and I wish the break was on the left also. But I believe the clutch is to disconnect the hydro pump from the engine when starting the tractor. So to give the starter less stress when turning the engine over for start up. Looking, forward to what you find out.

[@northernhumidor5615]

The bob cat is mostly made by Kioti except the loader , which lifts significantly less and are more money than a Kioti in the same frame and engine size. I looked at both and settled on a Kioti as i got a more capable machine for a lot less money.

[@RealJeep]

Incorrect.

[@andrewanderson1436]

Heck yeah Brock. Looking forward to the bobcat testing. To bad you couldn't get the kioti models to the bobcat and see just how much difference between the bobcat "specification changes " I think you should do everything you did with your deere with these new tractors

[@ericroot5043]

Well I was looking at a Bobcat 2025 for my small 55 acre farm, but I was told to buy an extra few horsepower than planned cuz I wouldn't regret it. So I bought a Bobcat 2040. Although it turns out they both have the same lift capacity. If this is correct, you may want to include this in your review. Love the content Brock.

[@stephenhinkle3277]

Would like to see a db sound test with a db meter. Tractor engine noise is always a concern, and hydrostatic transmission noise "whine." My grand L kubota has a db of 77db in the cab. Easy test to do.

[@JCWren]

My neighbor has an older Massey Ferguson, don't recall what the model is, but it's probably from the 80's. It is SO much quieter than my 2021 Kubota L4701. His exhaust vents straight up, mine is off the lower left front, don't know how much difference that makes. When he's pulling a bush hog, it's just chugging along. I wear hearing protection whenever I run mine and feel like it could be heard in the next county.

You're quest to find the perfect larger tractor is an admirable one but in reality you need two tractors, a big one 50HP+ and a smaller one. I would also consider the cost of ownership vs purchase cost. A guy like you that literally makes a living showing tractor projects should plan on upgrading every few years to keep your audience captivated. Good luck and keep the videos coming... you do a great job!

[@jimmcknight3021]

Kubota does have its fuel fill on the floor on the Grand L series. Theirs is on the other side.

[@Fed-Dog]

Daedong manufactures: Bobcat, Cub Cadet, McCormick International, New Holland, and Kioti. All somewhat different but the same parent company.

[@RockhillfarmYT]

I would not put new Holland on that list. The new Holland compact tractors are made by LS, which is not affiliated with daedong. LS also makes the Case compact tractors. The larger new Holland, compact tractors. It’s hard to get a clear answer on who makes them, but my understanding is that Holland makes their own and manufacturing facilities all around the world.

[@Fed-Dog]

@@RockhillfarmYT LS Mtron spun off of LG group, another Korean company owned by the Koo family in S Korea. Like all tractors, sometimes it's hard to find out who owns or builds what.

[@oefveteran09]

Daedong has manufactured for McCormick and Cub Cadet, but no longer do. McCormick is now supplied by Branson (now TYM) and Cub Cadet is completely out of the market. Kioti is the export name for Daedong. New Holland compacts were made by Shibaura and now LS.

Brock, looking forward to seeing these comparisons videos. I feel all these machines are going to be great in their own right. Thats really awsome of the dealers to do this so you can show all of us.

[@nolanscheid1724]

Beware Bobcat! Brock, be very careful. I have a low hour Bobcat CT2035. The loader is dangerous. Try this test: put on forks and a 600 pound load. Use it gently like you are moving something valuable. As you are lowering the load, try to gently curl to keep the pallet level. Doing both functions at the same time causes the loader to drop uncontrollably. Good luck!

[@donaldstrishock3923]

The CT2035 ,needs to "GO-Packing"... it is a "Great Tractor" for somebody who; NEVER owned & or Never Ran/drove a Tractor.

[@bungalowjoe447]

Never saw anyone buy a bobcat tractor before.

[@JCWren]

I think we need some tractor drag racing comparisons :)

[@SSouthcombe]

Hey Brock - I produce several thousand bales of hay annually with my 2038R. The only negative for me is lift height when I'm handling bales with my 10 bale grapple. Another six inches would be nice. It's just the right size to drive into high cube shipping containers for hay storage. It runs my John Deere 328 baler without difficulty and I have a Hoelscher 1000 bale accumulator attached. I do have Hydros Pus upgrades. Going bigger has advantages but also disadvantages.

[@tomhaire4758]

Brock I would like to see some tilling and pulling from the smaller of the units

[@randallquiring9525]

I’m assuming you know that Kioti makes Bobcat. I have a CK3510 which should be the counterpart to the smaller model you have. The clutch is used for pro engagement and I use it for almost all range shifting. The brake I use to keep from rolling and setting the parking brake. I don’t use it for slowing down as letting off the direction pedals is enough.

[@RockhillfarmYT]

Yeah, the only difference is they use their own loader

[@toddcaskey9984]

Morning , merry Christmas 🤪 What's the price difference between the cab newholand and the cab bobcat ?

[@Steve-mp2fr]

True about 2038r tire size. Ever considered putting 3 series tires/rims on the 2r (front/rears)?

[@rikkilee9409]

[@wildbill23c]

As far as doing hay with a tractor, from what I was told, you want a heavier tractor for the baler as the baler is heavy and can shove a small tractor down a hill, or stall a small tractor tryin to go up a hill.

[@kahvac]

The Bobcat is really a Kioti right ?

[@keithdunnivan8099]

Right

[@anthonyg6924]

Correct. Basically in a nutshell, yes.

[@juddblaney9320]

It’s made by the same company DaeDong. It’s a Kioti but the loader itself is different. The price of the Bobcat compared to the Kioti seems to run a bit higher. Also, Bobcat has moved their tractor building to the states, so I’m guessing that they are using the same parts and pieces but assembly has moved.

[@RealJeep]

Bobcat is mfd by Daedong who makes a slew of other tractors.

[@jacobhendrickson8935]

I will never understand why JD went with the small wheels and tires for that 2038.

[@juddblaney9320]

I would really like to hear from a Bobcat rep. What’s Bobcats realistic tractor market look like? Right now I’m leaning Kioti which is obviously the same but there’s a few differences. Also, I really wanna know about Yanmar and the burning question of why they aren’t more popular given their top quality

[@keppypaul]

Well from a selfish perspective I would love to understand all the features and how they are properly applied... like the no stall and cruise control PTO etc. Mine seems to have two leavers for the 3 point lift and I don't as of yet know why or what each lever is used for. There is an odd top link linkage (looks to be a hydraulic link of a sort) on the three point at the tractor end that I don't know as of yet what it is for or how it works. I'm also not sure how and when each feature will be applied but glad I have options for now. Mine is mainly being used for steep driveway maintenance (grading) and moving materials. I bought mine because I needed creature comforts of a cab and enough HP to grade going up the steep driveway unlike my old tractor that could only grade while going down the steep driveway. To be honest though the 84 month 0% financing and that it is essentially a Kioti tractor made me choose it. I'm building a remote parcel delivery pad using a job box at my entrance gate and a pad for my propane tank at the house. I have the backhoe and plan to trench for my septic connections as well as water and solar power service connections to our new home. One thing I noticed is the fuel consumption is more than double when compared to my old normally aspirated shuttle shift 28HP tractor. I guess you have to feed those ponies to use them LOL. Lastly the Kubota and John Deer dealers would not budge on the terms of the sale of their equipment and didn't seem to care if I bought from them or not. The Bobcat dealer however was very agreeable when it came to deals and options.

[@amandadavis9726]

If I’m not mistaken,…the CT5500 is the cab model and CT5000 is the open station model.

[@BGWenterprises]

Biggest thing with making hay with a small tractor is, controlling it when on a slope when the ground is not flat, and the tractor is relatively light, the plunger can potentially really make it wiggle. . Having a clutch pedal allows you to engage pto attachments more smoothly than just a switch on the dash. In my experience. . For any regular use on a road, like say you regularly run back and forth a mile or 2 between 2 locations, best to run industrial tires. The ag tires will not hold up to regular use on a paved surface as well. But for any dirt/mud use ag is far better.

[@JeffGeorgalas]

I really think that you'll be doing yourself a disservice by not putting that two-bottom plow on the larger New Holland and the larger Bobcat that you've got and pulling that through some dirt. I think THAT would give YOU a good idea to see if the compact machines will do all of the things that you want to do, or if you should move up to the utility framed machines.

[@neilsbergstedt]

Loader work is what I'm interested in so lift height and loader distance in front of the machine is what I'd like to see.

In my situation it would probably take way longer to accomplish most tasks in a big shuttle like that, our Kioti DK6020 is about as big as could fit and turn around well in most of the places I work. So I tend to think the bobcat would make a way better machine for a small farm.

[@Dan-oz4qb]

Bobcat needs to decide if they're in or out of the compact tractor market before I'd give them a serious look.

Good morning

[@JustinMertes-i8p]

Id love to see a video on what size property (Average Chores) fits which tractor, aka right size tool for the right size job. I'd also like to see something about the ergonomic / how comfortable it is to use each of the tractors. At the end of the day I don't think anyone goes buying a tractor for the fact that it lifts more than another tractor, I think the biggest hitters are the amount of feature you are getting for the price you are paying. I was sad to find out the extra paid for Kubota features on my bx1880 are pretty much standard on a Kioti and the fact I could have bought a cab equivalent for the same price as my open station kubota! The main factor was brand recognition as to why it was more expensive. Had I known many extra features are standard on a Kioti, I probably would have bought from them from the get-go! Not to say I have buyers remorse, I love my Kubota but it sure would have been nice to have a cab tractor for the same price!

Good afternoon Brock. I couldn't afford any of these tractors but I'm really interested in your evaluation of them. I'm quite happy with my 2007 John Deere 2305 but I'm curious about how it would match up with the two smaller tractors. I'll watch the specs. on the two smaller ones and compare them to mine. I'm still trying to find out if my 2305 is comparable to a 1025R or a little bit bigger tractor. I've heard it called a sub compact and a compact tractor. So any information you could maybe give me would be appreciated. I really love my 2305. It's a beast but I'm just curious about it and would love some first hand information if possible. Sorry this is so long but God bless and have a wonderful day.👍👍🙂

John Deere puts theirs up there as well. A lot of people consider it preferable. Some people complain that having it down low like a lot of the other brands is a good way to damage the fuel tank and having it on the hood is a good way to spill fuel.

[@ProductiveRecreation]

Personally, I’d buy Kioti over Bobcat. Get the tractor with the same name on the hood as the company that built it - seems like a better way to get long term service. I have a Ford compact built by Shibaura. New Holland deep sixed that partnership after more than 25 years and teamed up with LS instead. At 42 years old, despite being a great machine, my tractor is obsolete and it can be difficult (and costly) to get parts. I’ve hit up tractor junkyards a couple times… The local New Holland dealer is great… but it stinks when they really want to help and things just aren’t available. The dealer service crew says my tractor is one of the best they made, and I can attest it is a stout little machine. Too bad the manufacturer didn’t stand by it with parts availability.

[@RealJeep]

They're made by the same company, Daedong.

[@ProductiveRecreation]

@@RealJeep Yes, but Kioti is daedong’s name brand in the US. Bobcat is a rebranded machine - they buy from daedong, like New Holland does with LS. Bobcat could end that agreement, and start a new one elsewhere, or start designing and building their own machines (which they have expressed desire to do). Daedong will keep selling Kioti unless for some strange reason they decide to exit the U.S. market. That seems pretty unlikely. They’ve been growing and doing well.

Having these tractors brought to my property right now is for the video Contant. Within a week you will see my new tractor announced

[@noelcahill6707]

There tym in white

[@RealJeep]

Wrong. TYM and Daedong are different companies in S. Korea.

[@wademizelle3433]

New Holland all the way or keep the John Deere

[@dustdevl1043]

You're gonna be worn out just climbing in and out of tractors! All for a good cause I guess.

[@ShaneZettelmier]

Bobcat is a weird one for me. I really like them I even like the way they look though I don’t normally like the color orange, but bobcat is a pretty good company when it comes to their skid, steers, and larger equipment, but they have a horrible history in the compact tractor world And is created some buyer trust issues. These have visual features on their indicating that it’s very likely these are clones or these are manufactured by someone else which is kind of good, but only because of bobcats, horrible history in the compact tractor market they came out and they had some cool units and then they just sort of dropped the whole thing and said oh well and ditched their customers and left them hanging And now they’ve kind of come back again but we don’t know how dependable they’re going to be and of course the people promoting them say oh they’ll be completely dependable and will always be there for our customer, but they weren’t in the past unless people hanging as one of the situations where you bought an expensive piece of equipment, and we kind of left to deal with it on your own because the company just said we don’t deal with that anymore to their customers. Bobcat is a legit company in the skid steer and excavator market and has been for a long time and I would really like to see them do good in this compact tractor area but I think to do it you’re gonna have to put in some years first and they started But people need to know that if they pump out all this money that 10 years from now you’re gonna be able to get parts and support and just not be dropped again. And honestly they’re gonna kinda have to take the Japanese route to this market where I’m just gonna have to be very competitive on their prices and put out a better quality product and push some innovation because honestly if a bobcat and a John Deere in the same class are close to the same price. I’m gonna buy the John Deere every single time because I know John Deere will be there to support it down the road and bobcat. I know there might not because they Messed up before so there needs to be some kind of incentive there with TYM I don’t know if they’re gonna be there in 20 years and this time goes by they’re gaining that but I think for Bobcat to compete they’re gonna have to be out there putting out either a top notch, impeccable product or even a better product and they’re gonna have to price themselves against the arcade and TM and LS and coyote stuff because they’ve got some hurdles that they’ve created in the past to overcome now. Other than that, I kinda like what they’re putting out but I’m glad you’ve got these two units and will give us a good breakdown on how they’re built and how they function because I would like to see some competition out there for the green and the orange stuff

How about roll over test, just kidding

[@RockhillfarmYT]

That would be a good one. Currently spreading stone with the two smaller tractors

[@nathanmartin3209]

John Deere or Kabota the two best manufacturers in compact tractors, the others just try to keep up and john deer Has the best support

[@michaelhess4825]

We'll, except for that pesky right to repair issue.

[@yayinternets]

The lift capacity on them is well behind all of the South Korean brands. So they are a pretty poor value at this point, not to mention right to repair issues.

[@jefffrancis6824]

[@JohnWinsemius]

You do know Bobcat is owned by a South Korean company. Don't let the Name fool you as being owned by a American (Hyundia owns them) and partnered with Doosan (Koiti tractor) to build Bobcat Tractors. Kioti sells for less money. YOU are paying more for the BOBCAT name Just like JD green paint is very expensive... Did you every find out where New Holland is made , what country?? You said you would, your word means everything Brock

[@RealJeep]

Doosan owns Daedong which manufactures Kioti, Bobcat, New Holland and other brands with American names.

[@JohnWinsemius]

@@RealJeep I forgot to say Daedong thankyou

[@stevenmd4817]

You should have been doing research way before receiving all these different brand tractors, hard to compare when you know nothing about them and only having them for ONE WEEK🤨waste of your time and the people watching 😮

[@rikkilee9409]

hi mr rockhill i watch all your vidjas. tractor time w tim has a 4 piece scale to weigh tractors. then you could do it with logs on forks to get log weight. this may give you a tool for content? PS the TYM T494 and T574 are different than all other tractors. there is a vidja KUKJE VS EVERYBODY ELSE it tells you about the mechanical fuel injection and the least amt. of computers and sensors in the industry. KUKJE is the most simple modern tractor engine made. very easy to troubleshoot. the only difference between the two is the 494 has no turbo. the 494 ROPS w two pair rear remotes and factory TYM 3rd function is the only one that has hard lines all the way to the bucket. PPS HUGE flat floor for your dog to ride. my 2022 TYM T494 was $31k with 5 remotes and rim guard and steel cutting edge on bucket 1/2'' x 6'' x 72'' if you do not have a tax number larry stovesand sells with no tax due to the state he is in. Tenn. im in ny and it cost $$1800 or less to ship. yours would be cheaper. loader lift is 2785 and the 494 with loader and rim guard is 6700 lbs. i am at 92 hours and still no regen. if you want to know. thanks rick cooperstown ny Canadarago lake ny (center of the state)

I'm only at the 3:00 minute mark on your video so far Brock, but I'm going to jump out here and comment anyway, and maybe my comment will end up being irrelevant. But first off, getting the smaller Bobcat tractor is kind of a waste of time, isn't it? If it's a DIRECT competitor to your current 2038, why bother looking at it, as you're goal is to move up in size and performance, right? The larger Bobcat with the cab, I understand giving it a try, just not the smaller one. Also, doesn't getting all of these machines at the same time kind of "muddy the waters" and get confusing? I THOUGHT (and could be wrong) that you only get to keep the New Holland for a week, right? And if that's the case, you've hardly put any seat-time in on that one, so will it even get a fair shake by the time you have to send it back to the dealer? I don't know, it just seems like having so many tractors at your place at the same time, might not be the best thing, as none of them will get the individual testing that they may have if they were the only machine that you had at your place at a time. Not trying to be critical, just my observations and opinions. I still wish you the best in your search for your new machine, and hope you get WHICHEVER one suits your needs the best.
