Overview
This video documents Tim trading in his well-used 2014 John Deere 1025R for a low-hour used 2018 model, with a used-equipment dealer (Goodworks Tractors) facilitating the handoff. The main practical content is a side-by-side loader lift-height comparison between the H120 and 120R, yielding actual tape-measure numbers. It also notes differences between the 260 and 260B backhoes and the 54D versus 60D deck. Best for 1025R owners curious about generational differences or the used-versus-new value question.
An owner-operator channel focused on compact tractor projects and family life, so expect a casual, personal tone rather than a technical or dealer-driven perspective.
