11 CRITICAL ITEMS! ALL TRACTOR FEATURES NOT CREATED EQUAL! 🚜

Ойын-сауық

All tractor features aren't created equal and I give you my take on the most important tractor features to consider on your next tractor purchase. We all have our own applications, so my experience is somewhat biased based on my own experience. However, I feel that most of you will agree with these features and options, but let me know your thoughts by leaving a comment below!
Some of these tractor features will be standard on virtually any tractor on the market these days, while others will be totally dependent on if you choose to include them when purchasing a tractor new or get lucky and have them on a used tractor you purchase. As I deal primarily in subcompact and compact tractors, that is what this list of important features is tailored towards. Farmers with large utility and ag tractors might have a totally different priority list and that's okay. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and please consider subscribing to my channel!

    I like having 2 identical tractors - 1 with turf tires and no front end loader and a belly mower, the other with industrial tires and a front end loader - so that the implements are interchangeable but 1 is mostly for mowing and the other is for everything else.

    Thanks, I learned something. I'm a geezer who has gotten by with really old tractors but last year bought a high time 4320 compact that the dealer wanted to get off his lot. Many things I like about it, some I don't. Love the turf tires, 4 WD, power reverser, and the great fuel economy of the diesel. Miss the self leveling bucket of my Case 530 (and its bulldozer construction). This year I had a problem with the rockshaft (stuck up) and took it all apart, replaced o-rings. Control valve ports and rate of drop needed cleaning, works ok now. Heavy work for a man of 80. Clutch and brake pedal hinges will corrode and freeze up if you leave it outside all the time as the previous (contractor) owner did. Lots of PB blaster cured that. Too much electronic crap on it, sleazy plastic gate guides on the controls, I cut away a lot of the plastic around the seat to make maintenance easier. My tractors don't get loaded onto a dealer truck. Time to till the garden.

    Well, you outdid yourself this time. This little lifesaver clip should be required viewing for anybody buying a tractor, especially first time buyers. As a matter of fact, a lot of tractor sales people could stand to watch this & learn. There are so many ways a tractor can make a near impossible task so easy and effortless, just as there are so many ways that lack of experience, or a bit of carelessness can ruin the rest of your life. Good job Courtney, this is your best video yet.

    One of the features that you did not mention in this video is the QA on the three point hitch. Although it looks like many/most of your units have it installed. I was lucky when I bought my Kubota, the salesman and I talked about what I was going to use it for and he did like you and suggested the items that make life easier. That is the difference when the salesperson is taking care of his clients. If I hadn't already bought a tractor and didn't live so far away I would have tried to work with you. I am impressed enough with you that I would have been comfortable buying a tractor from nearly 1,300 miles away. Your videos show that you care about your customers and that you understand the idea of working smarter not harder. Thank you!

    Another great write up. Even though you stated that this video, “was for new owners”, I still learned a few things like the float function. I had a 2520 and now a 4410 and I thought this whole time that the linkage was just sloppy. I’m still amazed that Kubota has such excellent loader control but inconvenient rockshaft controls. I am still baffled why Deere doesn’t design better loader controls to combine curl and raise/functions. Anyway, great one, I wish I had watched this before I bought a tractor but I still have very few regrets.

    I realize that I may be an outlier, but I really appreciated the option to get a pinned on bucket to save money. I live on 10 acres. I have a 200 yard long gravel driveway that I maintain with a 4' box blade, and a 100' x 100' garden that I got the tiller attachment for. I'll never need forks, and it never snows here. I can't even imagine a scenario where I would need some attachment other than my bucket on the front. I got the BX series Kubota with the quick detach loader... that I doubt I will ever take off. And, unless the virus really does cause an apocalypse, I will never sell my tractor. So saving money on a pinned on bucket was ideal for me. I would have to disagree from my perspective that a quick attach bucket is a must have. As an edit, I absolutely love my little tractor. It looks like a Tinkertoy from the side, but it definitely doesn't perform or feel like one when in the driver seat. I have nothing to compare to as I have never been on a Deere or other model, but it does everything I need and more.

    I have a Kubota B3200 with 1/4 inching valve. It drives me nuts when grading, and I'll never buy another tractor with it. (First tractor owner and didn't know any better) There is no precision except eyeballing when using a box blade. I don't find it as an issue when tilling, as I want the tiller to go as deep as possible with every pass. Bush hogging isn't an issue for me either as I'm not looking for it to be perfect. Using a finish mower may be more of an issue. Extendable length 3 point link arms is another must have feature that makes it a lot easier to hookup implements if you don't have a quick hitch setup. This is a great video for someone shopping for their first tractor! Great job.

I could see how new operators could benefit from them at start until they gain experience but don’t think its a super necessary need just nice to have for new operators

    I don't have any tractors in stock with that setup right now, but you most likely have the independent hydraulic deck lift. If so, there's an extra hydraulic hose that you'll need to plug into one of the quick couplers used for the loader. It's so that your 3 point hitch can be controlled separately from the mower. If you have a bagger system on the back or a sprayer, then you might not want it going up and down at the same time as the deck.

    Cheap bucket level indicator. Get some steel tubing and weld it to the bucket. Paint it. Stick a fiberglass snow driveway marker in the hole. If you cannot weld you can use u bolts and drill 4 holes. Do on both sides and you can tell both level and width of blade. Doesnt cost much and easier to watch those rods on the bucket than the indicator rod.

    It is a option and I had to get it from the dealership for my wife’s BX 23S. The dealership didn’t carry it in stock. If I remember correct it was in the $60.00 price range, but it just bolted on to the loader. TTWT talked about it in one of his after videos during his comparison between the BX and the Series 1. I remember thinking that he should have researched the BX more throughly and he wouldn’t have had to do the correction video. But I now realize that they are probably not sold that often and dealerships are not realizing that they are leaving money on the table by not offering them.

    One thing you did not discus. When I mow, I prefer to remove my loader, so I don't have to worry about hitting things while mowing, as I have a few tight spots to get into. How long does it take to remove the FEL on a series 1 Deere? I can remove my FEL on my BX2680 in about 30 seconds or less, and never leave the seat to do it. I do wish Kubota had the stops on the 3 point hitch and the mower lift was separate from the 3 point lift. This just shows that there is NO perfect tractor, that does everything the best.

    It takes seconds to back away from the front loader on my 2019 JD 1025r TLB - I carefully compared the BX to the 1025r before selecting Green over Orange - I could have bought either for almost the exact price - Green just had too many advantages over orange, in my opinion - Especially if you are getting a backhoe...

    About a year ago I picked up a L2501 Kubota with a 72" rear finish mower. My buddy has a BX with a belly mower and loader. We found that I can actually get into tighter spots than the BX just by backing the L2501 and getting good at swinging the RFM around. With a belly mower, if you have areas you have to back into to cut, a RFM will cut closer than a belly mower because you're not dealing with half the length of the tractor. It's also way easier to get under low trees with a RFM without getting stabbed, but if you do a lot of that you'll have a crick in your neck by the end. Always a tradeoff!

    No discussion on tractor weight. Weight gives traction. What you are calling an Ag tire looks like a utility or construction tire. Ag tires are the well defined V-tread. Buying new, the dealer service is a go, no-go decision on buying.

    Sorry, but that's not true. Those are going to be options in every other brand. The only manufacturer that offers it as standard with the loader is JD. I see hundreds, if not thousands, of tractors a day. I can rule out most Kubota's in about ten seconds from one side profile picture. I can tell if it's hydrostatic, if it's four wheel drive, and if it had a quick attach bucket. A vast majority of Kubota's don't meet one of these criteria. Even so, I turn down almost every tractor I see for other reasons even if they meet all three of these.

    @@GoodWorksTractors I wonder if it's specific to where you are. JD is the only one I've seen in this area (N. Texas) that doesn't carry loaders with the skid steer quick attach. It's really hard to find a Mahindra, Kubota, Case, or New Holland loader without it, usually the ones that are around are really old, newer ones just don't seem to come that way. The JD dealers around here only push the JD branded quick attach system, which limits versatility to only green fel attachments.

    Haggling over controls that function differently that will smooth out over time with experience are not in my opinion, critical. What I do find critical is what are your axles made of .are they robust and strong steel or are they made of aluminum. What are your fenders made of. My uncle had his hood wired in place because the plastic cracked and busted at the hinge points. What are the finders made of? OK if the parts are made in a variety of country’s by a variety of venders, who’s gonna make it should contracts change which often leads to pars issues down the road. These issues are what’s critical and can’t be fast talked away because the part you need is now obsolete, these are my concerns with the Deere. I really want and prefer the Deere, but I’m skiddish when asking my version of critical.

Junk is all I can say! Second is the differential lock. Mine gets used quite often, no need to switch to 4 wheel when the diff. lock will do the job a lot easier. Thanks for making these informative videos, keep up the good work.
