I love this tractor! The lifting capacity has not been much of an issue except when i have bigger logs at the end of the forks. What have you done to increase the capacity?

I adjusted the psi..it made a huge difference. ..

But when doing that it comes with a certain amount of personal liability. ..basically tractor lifts alot more becomes more tippy u will need more counter lbs..and it probably voids the warranty. .

@@victorgillen2439 How do you increase the PSI?

@@coltknight3945 do you have a 3025E if so what year?

L2501 is 16% heavier at 2622 lbs over the 3025E's 2222 lbs but only the wheelbase of the L2501 is only 3.3 inches longer. However, the L2501 does have a longer loader on it which may be why it lifts less weight than the 3025E. And the R4 tire sizes are the exact same on the two. You may have been comparing the 2025R to come up with a 25% small physical size because it definitely wasn't this tractor. Hate that you had a bad price experience. I compare these two because the L2501 is supposedly Kubota's economy tractor. I needed an economy tractor. The treadle pedal is just a personal preference things. Do you have a review video of your tractor? I'd love to check it out.

@@rockinrranch1431 I think weight difference in part has to do with JD aluminum rear end. Some people don't care but weight is so important in tractors. I think why I see so many videos of the 3025e trying to add weight to the rear.. No it was the 3025E I looked at. I think you have to put them side by side to see the size difference . I came up with that 25% just an observations not in spec anywhere just my estimate. I think prices vary so much from area to area. It's small preferences. If I had to.complain about one thing on the Kubota it would be the Pto selector vs the JD which is better. But overall glad I went with it. I don't have a review messicks did. Not same HP but same frames. You can see size difference irrespective of tire similarities Watch "**TUG OF WAR** John Deere 3032E VS. Kubota L3301" on KZfaq kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJx-pNZpsJywl4U.html

Yea but where JD has all other manufacturers beat on is the smoothies hydraulic system on the market because they pump more fluid threw the pumps than any other tractor. So the end result is smoother operation and more powerful while operating equipment. When you start using equipment there is a notice in power because the JD pull and use equipment a lot better.

You can call your local Deere dealer and they would be happy to price a package like this for you. I prefer not to post financial info on the internet.

@@rockinrranch1431 .... Letting people know the cost you paid helps everyone while dealing with dealers . All consumers need to stick together and help each other with what they paid so we can get a good deal also. The dealers are laughing at us not sticking together.
