Thanks! My voice is a little mono tone and boring but hopefully gives you a good look at it, i had a hard time finding many videos on it before i bought it so ive been wanting to post a bunch about it
Well Mr.Ryan, its still a "baby" with those low hours. You have finely demonstrated its capacities in the past.....( not like most other green-horns). My Ls dealer is just 15 miles away & took it for a "cruise"( with no backhoe). Liked the 3 range & the split brake pedals,& the loader amplifying bucket-linkage assembly on the loader.
Yes just a baby! Haha the whole platform set up to me is better than most other tractors ive seen just based on the comfort of not really having to reach for the wheel or have it jam into you and the loader controls arent too far forward, the 3 range seems like the way to go over any 2 speed for sure, low is slow but you will spin all four tires with ease, snow plowing i use mid and can still push up our hilly driveway with relative ease pushing a 6” snow fall with a 66” snow pusher which really impresses me for such a small machine with only 25hp
For a do it yourselfer the backhoe is super convenient, i debated for a while about getting one but am glad i got it with it right away, any excuse i can come up with to use it i will haha. Its no excavator for sure but the purpose of the tractor for me was to have a good all around machine that can do most things at a fraction of the cost of a skid steer and excavator. And yes the backhoe hook up on this is super simple! Takes like 5 mins to swap from backhoe to 3pt once you get used to it!
@@bradleywellner8387its an option, alot of dealers wont ask what kind of tires you want and will just give you the industrial tires that most get but you can request a different style tire, it was no additional cost for me
@@Ryans_Rural_Living are those tires made by Carlisle or a different brand? I really like them and I'm trying to get as much info about them as I can so I can try to get the same ones. Any info would be appreciated
Awesome review and thanks for sharing. Not many reviews out there like this for the 225s. Hoping to purchase this tractor one day.

Also liked the Back-hoe atachment "hook-up", its reach& swing capabilities. Almost a "perfect little rig".

Great review. Thank you.
when you recommend the "r14 tires" are you referring to the versaturf tires, the industrial tires, or something else?
They are called r14t tires, they are a crossover from the industrial tires and turf tires, kinda almost look like a mud tire for a truck
That is a paid upgrade I'm assuming? Or were you given that option when you purchased the tractor?

125 hrs? I'll do that in 1 month. Sounds like you need to traid up
Will it pull 2 bottom plow
I think it could possibly but the tractor is pretty light, id say youre better off going the next frame size up
Great video
