    I have a 2025 manual and after using it for about 30 minutes I wouldn't even consider hydrostatic. I just love it the way it is. It's perfect for acreage

    Do these come with a geared transmission and/or Shuttle Shift?? I know the J.D. 3025 D which is just about the same as E series do come with geared Shuttle Shift Transmission. Thank You.

    I notice a lot of comparison videos talk about the bucket joystick location. But every model tractor is different. The JD 2038r has the joystick mounted right on the side as well. But I was already leaning bobcat before this video. With JD you pay for the name and less features.

    The only reason I can see to buy the John Deere E-series tractor is if you are trying to colour match with other, much better John Deere equipment you may have on a farm. It doesn't take much effort to see and find out that Daedong (Kioti/Bobcat) and Kubota build much better tractors in this class.

  • @artillerybuff2000
    @artillerybuff2000 5 месяцев назад

    One big problem with Bobcat is if you add any wheel weights or tire ballast they will instantly void your warranty. In addition, they are a rebranded tractor made for Bobcat by Kioti. This is good news because you can purchase this same superior tractor directly from Kioti and add all the ballast you want for safe front loader operation.

    Raymond, The Bobcat CT2025 sells for less than the JD 3025 when equipped with a loader. You can expect more value when you get a Bobcat, and no aluminum rear end.

      Jeep CV, The features of the CT2035 and CT2040 are the same as the CT2025 in the video and the JD3032E and JD3038E are the same basic tractor as the JD3025E. A couple of differences are the Bobcat loader lift capacity is even higher and the lift height is even higher. The built in weight of the Bobcat is 400lbs more.
      JD still has the light weight and low loader capacity to stop you from doing work. I will do a CT 2040 video soon.

    compare it to a 2025r and you don't need to get off the seat to take the loader off. i would give credit to bobcat as there Equipment is A1 but they don't even make anything on the tractor other than the name and logo. that said what a very balanced video between bobcat and john deere i tried to find other videos on bobcat and this is the first one i have found that isn't a showroom demonstration.

    • @macpayne5463
      @macpayne5463 4 года назад

      Thanks for the comments Chris. I did not use the 2025R as a comparison because it is a much smaller tractor. The JD 2025R loader lift capacity is 803 lb.VS 1389 lb. on the CT2025. The Weight of the JD is 1794 lb. VS 2634 lb. for the CT2025. The 3-Point lift capacity of the 2025R is 915 lb. (24"behind the lift point) the CT2025 3-Point capacity is 1631. I can go on and on but they are not comparable other than engine HP. I have never had a customer say they purchased too big of a tractor. Bobcat Tractor Mac

      JD got written off as I was told that with JD's quick attach system, you are confined to buying only JD attachments.
      However as the attachment system on the BC is an industry standard, i would think that there are several implements from other manufacturers that would work.
      Am I incorrect in this assumption?

    The Bobcat is not made by Bobcat. When they announced they were planning to bring design and manufacturing in house, alarm bells should be going off for people. Historically, manufacturer support in cases like this is very short lived as they don't want to support legacy products and vendor relationships. There's less control over quality control and lower margins. I'll give them a look when their offerings aren't coming out of a Korean catalog... and their sales reps are a little more honest in their comparisons. Until then I'll stick with JD.

    • @artillerybuff2000

My friend has a 3025E and I would have also if they would have matched the CT2035's price. Did I mention the 5 years bumper-to-bumper warranty they threw-in? Resale will probably be better on the JD (sold my 1993 JD855 for $7,00 to apply on this one). That being said, I LOVE this thing!!!

    Your guys purposely didn't compare it to a JD 2025 or even a 2032 or 2038 just so you could point out more differences. It's not apples to apples, kinda dirty pool really. JD has a lot of features too. Why no talk of a drive over, auto connect mower deck? Does Bobcat have one? I don't own either but I don't like seeing companies try to pull fast ones on comparisons. As long as Bobcat has been in business they shouldn't have to do that.

      William,
      Thanks for the comments. Let's look at a few specifications of the JD 2025 VS the Bobcat CT2025.
      Tractor Weight JD2025 1793 lb Bobcat CT2025 2634 lb 32% more
      Loader Capacity JD2025 803 lb Bobcat CT2025 1369 lb 41% more
      3-Point Capacity JD2025 915 lb Bobcat CT2025 1631 lb 44% more
      Implement Hydraulics JD2025 3.5 GPM Bobcat CT2025 6.9 GPM 49% more
      In my opinion the JD 2025 is a much smaller tractor with much lower specifications than the CT2025. Just because they both start with a 2 in the model number does not make them the same. By the way the JD stamped deck is good but a fabricated deck like we have for the CT2025 will give you a great cut and last a long time.
