TYM T25/ Porcupines, Vultures and Kids OH MY!

Review of the T25 tractor

[@mikecooper7094]

I just bought my first tractor, a TYM T264 and man let me tell ya, they know what they’re doing when they build their tractors. I have a friend that is a Deere dealer and he gave me some crap, but like you said, I could spend $5k more for green paint, but also I’d have a few hundred pound less lift capabilities in the FEL and the 3point if had gone with the Deere. So I’m more than happy with my decision going with the TYM.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Hi Mike, welcome to the tractor family!! and thank you for commenting. Ya, don't get me wrong, I have nothing against ANY of the other tractor brands. I borrowed a Kubota from a friend of mine once and loved it. Just don't agree with the price tags... I know, u get it. I'm in the process of the 50 hour service right now. Check back later for that vid. Thanks for subscribing!!

[@madtater5948]

what I've noticed that the tym outlifts the John Deere and the kaboba with horsepower is being equal

[@donaldstrishock3923]

Hey Erick like the " one grade below armor-piercing steel" on the loader comment--- have one of these loaders ordered for an older 1988 little Massey-Ferguson. And a way "kool" vidio shot of the Porcupine climbing the tree. A very good suggestion on ONLY using low range for "working" the tractor. Thanks for the great Video Sir and happy safe tractoring. Can't waite for a THOUSAND Hour review.

[@john_brandonkoch8303]

Thank you for the introduction to the T25, I just bought the Rural King RK25 and love it. It's my first tractor so I'm hoping to learn more about it from your channel.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Hi! Great to have you follow along with us. I'm going to be doing the 50 hour service soon. It was really tough to find the right kind of hydraulic oil. Not because of the tractor itself but because of the way things are right now. Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for watching!!

[@john_brandonkoch8303]

@@thesowerspatch8918 Thank you. I'm looking forward to seeing the 50hr service.

Great Video a lot useful info.THX

Thank you for sharing

Thats good to know.just got me a tym 264 with backhoe.watching all these.getting ready to hit the 50 hour mark soon.ill watch that one of yours.thanks.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

It's great to have ya! I had some family ask me why I didn't get the backhoe too. I said, for as much as I'd use it, it would be way cheaper for me to rent an excavator when the need arises. Who knows, maybe someday though... thanks!

[@ocd7036]

Nice machine looks well designed thanks for making the video about it was very curious about it.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

You're very welcome, friend. Thank you for watching!! I appreciate it.

[@ocd7036]

@@thesowerspatch8918 Do you happen to know the maximum weight the loader will lift?

[@thesowerspatch8918]

I know, they don't always make things easy to find. It says 1534 lbs. I've been testing it with some pretty huge rocks in my back yard. No problems so far. That's without ballast too.

[@boblani8150]

I believe the loader capacity is roughly 1380 lbs and 3 pt hitch is approx 1500 lbs 11 to 1200 lbs 24" after hitch

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Hi Bob, thank you for the correction. The loader bucket does hold 1380lbs. 1534 rear.

[@richardglandus1576]

Bonjour Très belle vidéo Très beau tracteur Doit être très agréable à conduire J'aimerais bien l'essayer

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Merci pour votre commentaire. Ce tracteur change la donne pour nous. Très satisfait de cela.

[@tractortyme]

Nice little units, I don't even have a steel hood on my T474.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

How do you like your 474? I would have loved to get a bigger one but, you know, budgets, wife... haha.

[@tractortyme]

@@thesowerspatch8918 I love my 474, 150h with no problems. But I got a cab for Montana winter.

I bought a RK 25 which is a twin to you T 25 and I like it a lot. Watched your 50 service yesterday, nice job. How is your dealer service? The biggest and only issue I have with mine is Rural King service. They really aren’t much help with the concerns or questions I’ve presented to them. Good luck. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

I was heavily leaning towards the rk brand myself simply because of the extras they offered with the rk24 that most places charge extra for. It ultimately came down to the service and I couldn't be happier. If I have a question/problem, I email the tractor manager and he gets back to me the same day. Where are you from? I know that IF you have a TYM dealer near you, they would probably help you. Even though they'd be more willing to help someone who bought from them (at least that's what they told me). I hope it all works out for you. Thank you for the comment!! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.

[@boblani8150]

Heh, nice to see someone else making a video on the Tym t25. Great Job. Don't believe Tym makes Mahindra, they, Hope I am not wrong. 2 things I would like to see on these tractors are. Tilt strg and a different designed ROPS, It would be very hard to put a Canopy on this tractor if you wanted some Shade. Hope to see more videos from you. Thanks

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Actually, TYM does make Mahindra tractors. Here is a quote from my TYM dealer. "I always make sure I tell people how they havent seen them before or heard a lot about them because of their former contracts with mahindra and other companies they were building for that prohibited them from selling here so that's why they didnt start selling in the United States until 2004 but some of the companies they have been building for have been in the US since the 70s." I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Also, I agree 100% about the ROPS.

[@sean2525]

Thanks for video! I was wondering if since shooting this, and having had the tractor a few more months, has any quality issues come up, or unscheduled maintenance? Or is there thing you've noticed could be an issue in the future? thank you.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

The only thing I don't like, the ROPS. But I'm going to do some fabricating to them in the future. So far so good!! Thank you!!

[@madtater5948]

thanks for sharing the video how many hours do you now now have on your tractor? I've been pricing new tractors and it seems like the John Deere and the kaboba are a lot more expensive than some of the other brands

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Thanks for watching and commenting! I think I have almost 86 hrs right now. I have Deere and Kubota dealers around me but I'm not impressed with either of them. I have a 6' land plane coming next month. Can't wait to see how "Little Tymmy" handles it.

[@jpage19591]

Hay thank you for the info .did you get a price as good as the RK 25? Just wondering if TYM will deal thanks agin

[@thesowerspatch8918]

No problem. Thanks for watching! Ya, they worked with me.

[@bruceewing166]

Could you please advise the vertical height of the tractor, with the ROPS folded down. Does it fold down easy fir entering garage...Thanx

[@thesowerspatch8918]

I can't give you an exact number since I took mine off but when they were on, it did not fit in a standard garage opening. Straight rops would have been way better

[@meredithboemig6468]

The t 25 went to a single stage gear pump unlike the dual stage in the 264. Does that affect the tractor when trying to drive steer and lift at the same time?

[@thesowerspatch8918]

All I can say about that is, it does what I need it to. Haven't experienced any problems so far. Thank you for the comment!!

[@weeweed86]

Are the rear fenders steel as well....?

[@thesowerspatch8918]

No. Decent thickness plastic. No worries about rust.

[@fullers1966]

Wondering how tall are you and are you comfortable on that tractor

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Average, about 5'10" and very comfortable. The seat moves quite a bit. Now, if you're a very large individual with size 16 shoes, it might be a little tight. That's why we say, buy the biggest tractor that you can afford.

[@seansysig]

I'm 6'2" 280lbs. Will I fit comfortably?

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Probably. If there's a dealer near you, I'd go try it out.

[@laurier3348]

Armor steel ist the best

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Never said it was

[@meredithboemig6468]

Hi.Can you tell me the height of rear tire from ground...in inches?

[@thesowerspatch8918]

I'll let you know later on. I'm at work right now.

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Approximately 35"

[@meredithboemig6468]

@@thesowerspatch8918 Thanks.quite abit larger than deere r 25.

[@lloydnewland127]

All the reviews on the tractor nobody mentions price

[@thesowerspatch8918]

Sorry bud. That's probably because it might be different where you live. I know the RK25 is cheaper than the T25. No idea why. A good price range for you though would be between 15k-20k.

there all good till they brake down

Yes, just like weadwackers and chainsaws and lawnmowers and everything else with an engine. 😆
