Overview
A pre-release breakdown of John Deere's upcoming 1M25 and 1R25 subcompact models, based on information the host says isn't yet publicly available. Covers the new factory air-conditioned cab, redesigned hood, updated dash with electronic fuel gauge, third-function kit now standard with factory loaders, six-port single-point hydraulics, factory-installed mid-mount mower option, and backhoe compatibility concerns. Best for current 1025R or 2025R shoppers weighing whether to wait for the new lineup.
A hands-on compact tractor enthusiast channel whose host owns a heavily modified 1025R and promotes aftermarket products like Hydros Plus, so expect some commercial relationships alongside genuine owner perspective.
