🔷 ABOUT US 🔷
We're a DIY family building our "forever homestead" from 15 acres of raw undeveloped land in Tennessee. All of our content is family friendly and safe for everyone to enjoy.
In today's video we let you know we bought a new tractor! We have a 2023 Massey Ferguson 1825 E compact tractor with the FLX 2407 loader. We also put our tractor to work using the loader bucket to spread the 23 tons of 3/4" stone for our gravel driveway. We use the tractor to widen our driveway and make our driveway turnaround from one vehicle width into two vehicles wide. We also use the loader to back blade or scrape the driveway smooth as well as our King Kutter 5' rear scrape blade to smooth everything out. Let's go!

You look good on that tractor and I like the color. The red and black goes well with your other tools. Seriously though, it's a good looking tractor and very capable. Nice buy! About the tractor shed. Just keep in mind that even the tractor dealers leave them outside on the lot. It won't hurt them to sit outside for a bit, so try not feeling so rushed. Just do what you can, when you can.

Congratulations on the new tractor! A little tip you may or may not know about using the bucket. On the right hand loader arm here's a silver rod that moves up and down out of a red sleeve as you tilt the bucket. When the bucket is flat, the rod should be even with the top of the sleeve. Knowing that can be very helpful when trying to scoop a bucketful of gravel or whatever you're scooping because you typically want to go into the pile with the bucket flat

I’ve seen what laying down 3/4 minus gravel on dirt does. I don’t remember seeing in a past video you laying down underlayment followed by pit rock and then finally 3/4 minus. More expensive in the short run, but worth in the long run. Most likely you cautioned your son over the dangers of heavy equipment. A friend of ours accidentally ran over his 18 month old daughter in 2012 killing her. 😢 Congratulations on the new equipment.

I’ve had two back surgeries, three knee surgeries, neuropathy in my feet, and have had two strokes an ischemic and an hemorrhagic I’m very lucky to still be alive extra weight I carried for years was a very big contributor to my strokes, knee issues, neuropathy and back surgeries. Extra weight is very hard on your heart and by the time you realize it you’ve damaged your heart. So please start losing weight now, no processed foods, chips, limit anything that your body turns into sugar. Eat healthy natural foods it’s hard to change but your body will adjust and your body pains will subside greatly and you’ll both feel better and be able to do more. God bless your family I’ve lived this and I’m not being critical but you have young children you want to see grow up.

Welcome to the MF family buddy. These red tractors just keep working and never stop. I got my current MF 4 years ago after a lot of studying, comparing and taking in the benefit of a hydro so my wife, grown boys and grandkids would have a better experience using it. After 4 years, no maintenance headaches, flat tires from thorns don't count. Wait until you buy a 3 point tiller for the garden, it is so much easier. We use a rotary cutter and disc mower, rake and baler. If ya get back in those tree's, watch out for those lighs, I snapped off my left side light off the ropes bar about a month after we got it.

Congratulations, its money well spent. Let me give a little advise, when you build your tractor shed, make it twice as big as you think you need, as you will be purchasing other attachments. Example, I built a 12x36' addition on my garage for my JD 2025R and its full. When your washing it after use thats a good time to hit those grease fittings. Enjoy it, you find many uses for it you hadnt even planned on.

There's an epidemic of new tractors happening! I got a new tractor, too. A much smaller one, but it's going to help me move gravel when the time comes. I just have to get used to running it on the hills (or at least knowing what hills I can safely maneuver on). Having a new tractor is indeed a game changer! Enjoy yours!

Nice tractor! My only word of caution with a hydro is be careful with ground engaging implements like plows. If there's a ton of drag the transmission will overheat like crazy, possibly harming it. I had this happen on my JD hydro. If you're going to drag something like a plow use a geared tractor like the ford.

The NEW TRACTOR can BE a very Big Help around the "Ranch". They are Very Valuable TOOLS. It didn't take you guys long to decide to give the "old -blue" a rest. These modern small tractors are real "Work-horses"- But Realy glad you guys got a Massey-Ferguson. ( have two) & another orange one-all different sizes. With every New piece of Equipment; there is a "Learning Curve", and your "best-friend" is the OPERATORS MANUALS !!! This tractor ; the Massey-Ferguson 1825e is "top on my list" or the 1835e & also another "red-type" in the 25-35hp range (not mahindra). The hydrostatic transmission is WAY too LOUD fer me- a 8×8 or a 12×12 is the way fer me. Congratulations on the "New-Rig" and SO MANY hits &likes ; Astonishing in such a short time. Thank you Sir &Madam for the Excelent vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.

A little tip. In my use of grader blade. I find when grading driveway stone if you turn blade backward and drag stone it does a better job. This also works well in snow removal. Blade won't dig in so deep and drags stone down easier. Have fun with new tractor. God bless you and family

First of all, congrats! Game changer. It's funny, when I was watching your last tractor video I thought you need a tractor with a loader. As a fellow tennessean, a canopy roof thing that hooks to the ROPs it's a must to keep the sun off you in the summer, rain or snow in the winter. And pallet forks are your best friend. Unless I am moving dirt or rock they are on my tractor. You can thank me later. Oh, a cheap ibc tote can be turned into a nice man cage when strapped to the pallet forks, came in handy after the wind storm last Friday. Wife lifted me up to cut trees hanging over our private road.

I know people as well as follow people with homesteads and hands down, the first thing they need or want to purchase when they get their homestead is a tractor. If you have ever done years and years worth of labor without a tractor, you know it's a NEED, not a want. Myself and my neighbor do similar projects and it takes him 30 mins. with the tractor and me literally 2-3 days of BACKBREAKING LABOR. In my opinion, you owe nobody an explanation but you are so genuine I'm not surprised you took the time to explain. P.S. my co worker just bought shoes for heel spurs and she said they are wonderful, she can walk again. The are made by Sketcher, thick soles with an arch and made to take pressure off the heal. Had a co worker many years ago that wore similar shoes. If I still have your email I will send you the info. God bless the family

If you ever get forks on that you're going to wish that you got a tractor that has the mechanical parallel linkage on the loader. That keeps the forks or the bucket at whatever angle you set it at as the boom goes up and down. An absolute must with forks so that you don't drop material or supplies on the ground, the tractor or yourself! That feature I absolutely freaking love on all loaders!!! Unfortunately a lot of loaders don't have it. For some reason a lot of people call that self-leveling but there is absolutely nothing self-leveling about it! It maintains the angle that you set it to as it goes up and down. Actually self-leveling is a feature on large construction site payloaders. No matter where the boom is you can push a button and it will it will automatically level the bucket or forks. That is the simplified explanation. Actually the bucket has to be at a negative angle then tap the control over all the way to the left. When it reaches 0 ° to the ground it stops. They also have an automatic up feature for loading trucks. 😃.

Out in the countryside you'll never want for something to do.
