Overview
A real-world one-year owner verdict from someone who used the 3025E hard, clearing raw land, moving 1,500-2,000 lb logs, running a 60-inch rotary cutter and 72-inch box blade. Covers why he picked the 25hp model over smaller and larger options, loader lifting tricks, hydraulic power warnings, ballast needs, grapple wear after heavy use, and 110-hour durability. Best for buyers deciding between the 3025E and nearby models.
An owner-operator sharing candid hands-on impressions from his own raw land clearing work, with no evident dealer or brand affiliation.
