JOHN DEERE 1025R COMPACT TRACTOR RIGHT FOR YOU?? WHAT CAN THE JOHN DEERE 1025R DO??

[@davidaaaa4611]

I have had one for years and I a happy with it. Never going to sell it.

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Great tractor!!

[@mkc0005]

I hear you on the weather. We were 81F yesterday afternoon and 25F this morning. At least there isn't any snow in our forecast.

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

So glad we got moisture (snow). The Christmas Trees needed something.

[@FloridaDeere]

Agreed man, my 1023E has been very helpful in lifting and especially using the stump grinder and grapple, saved lots of money and made money with each. I have also used a bunch of other attachments that make jobs easy. And you are right Jeff, truly the Swiss Army Knife of lawn equipment. Good video Jeff, Happy New Year.

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Thanks man!! Happy New Year!!

[@RockhillfarmYT]

Good review They are great machines

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Yes sir. Don’t know how I would have done without it!!

[@BulldogTractor]

Fun video! Those little tractors sure help save your back!

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Yes they do!! Thks for watching.

[@PurpleCollarLife]

Happy New Year, Jeff.

Thanks Chad!!

I'm wanting one of these, or the 2032R. Of course my influences are you, Quinn's Tree Farm, Hardy Bros Outdoors, and Tim of TTWT.

[@FloridaDeere]

TTWT was definitely an influence on my purchase, as well as GWT.

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

@@FloridaDeere I did watch a lot of TTWT but don't forget Tale of Three Cabins.

Great video

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Thank you. This video has done surprisingly well.

Quick question I just bought a 1025r to and can't afford much after that but real forks are expensive is that bolt on bucket forks

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Yes I have bolt on bucket forks. I made a video showing them as well.

[@davevarela1]

Thanks I just watched the video and I think I'm going to purchase those . It doesn't look like it will make a dimple on the bucket

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

@@davevarela1 Good deal. Yeah it just leaves circle scratches. Take care.

great video

Thank you very much. I hope you check out the rest of the channel and see what you think.

[@HIGGINSjhbg]

Hi Jeff - Thanks for the video. Does your 1026 have loaded weight in the tires? Do you find that you can lift a good amount of rock without counter weight in back like the box blade. How would you describe the power steering on 1026 when you have a load of material ? Thanks

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

I do not have loaded tires. I have found that if I don’t put the box blade or tiller on the back of the tractor I can’t lift much at all. The power steering is totally fine and I’ve never had trouble loaded or unloaded.

[@HIGGINSjhbg]

Thanks Jeff.

[@Diantane22]

10 acres? lol . I have only 2/3 of an acre and buying the 1025r because of the jungle that is growing on my property. Water comes down from the mountains behind me that pour mud, branches and rocks everywhere. The standing water has created a swamp right behind my house that reeks of mildew and the flies have turned it into a nightmare. It will take me about two years with the tractor (including the loader, backhoe, 60d and later a tiller) to get things back in order.

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Sounds like you need a boat. LOL Good luck getting things cleaned up. Thanks for sharing and watching.

[@Diantane22]

@@watkinstreefarm6880 Yeah, an air boat :)

[@WadeMD]

Man, I only have 1.25 acres and I use mine all the time!!

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

Yes sir. Love to here the stories.

[@JohnBraman413]

easy to service yourself or need to go to dealer?

[@watkinstreefarm6880]

As far as changing the oil, I do it myself. After 2 years, I have had no need to take it in. No break downs. 👍The next thing on my list is to change the hydraulic oil because I am at 400 hours
