That was a great review Joe!!! A few things. I'm not too proud to admit that I owned my 2025R for about a year before I realized that the fender lights swivel, as do the lights on my 2038R. Try it out, it makes those lights worth having, otherwise they are almost useless. I couldn't agree more with everything you said, for the frame size it's a lot of power. The rear hydraulics would be first on my list, the hydraulic top link is a real game changer for sure. And yes, my R1's are not friendly on my yard, especially spring and late fall, I will likely try out the R14 next time around. I personally like to see some reviews of the R14 with a few hundred hours on them, they are still fairly new. PS Tractor Time with Tim is forbidden language in my house, he has certainly cost a lot of us money. ; ) Lol

I have R14's on my 2012 1023E... 440 or so hours, still holding up. I had to put tubes in some for punctures, but wear-wise, excellent. Lots of traction for my needs around the yard.

Nice video. You were in my random feed this AM. I have the 2021 JD2032R, essentially the exact same tractor without the turbo, all same capacities. Mine is equipped with the same loader and I have the 60D auto-connect mid mount mower and the 270B backhoe. I also noticed we are both in TN; my tractor came from Trigreen in Cookeville. I previously owner a Kubota BX24 with similar equipment. The kubota was way more precise when using the FEL and BH but, that’s the only advantage I notice. I’ve added 2 tool boxes I made from ammo cans as well as added LED task lighting front and rear and electronics control station. Love this tractor…

@@vikingtractor6065 I love mine, very strong but, like I mentioned, not as precise as the Kubota. Seems doing dual functions like a curl and lift is almost impossible to do with the FEL and is impossible with the BH. You have to move them independently but, that’s not a big issue. They are expensive but, after having had one for the past 17 years I knew they are well worth it.

Enjoyed the review! I'm about to pull the trigger on the same machine -- I'm getting a box blade and rotary cutter, and my wife has convinced me to go ahead and get the backhoe as well...will see how much I end up using that, but I'm sure it will be useful at times. The box blade was my main (near-term) reason for the tractor, since I've got about a half mile of gravel drive to maintain. I figure I'll use it for a while before deciding what other accessories I really want -- had gone back and forth about the 3rd function, as I'm pretty sure I'm going to want a grapple at some point, but had to prioritize for the initial purchase.

I just don't understand the location. I love your HD brush hog. Tell us more of the pros of it, besides a thicker steel... what made you get it over the standard model? I did replace my R4 tires with the R14T tires. Yes the guys still harping about the steel hoods need to move on, it's 2021. Good Works Tractors is a good channel to get hooked on.
