Read articles →This video's angle is a side-by-side comparison: the host puts a guest, an experienced Kubota B2650 owner with no self-leveling loader background, on the Deere 1025R's 120R MSL to get unbiased first impressions. They work through a real dirt-moving task and pallet forks work, openly noting the limited bucket curl and the 1025R's known weakness running two hydraulic functions simultaneously. Honest about trade-offs; best for shoppers weighing the self-leveling upgrade decision.
An owner-operator channel focused on compact tractors and property projects, presenting themselves as enthusiastic non-experts rather than dealers or industry professionals.
No, the host and guest both note the bucket does not seem to want to curl much, calling it limited compared to a traditional non-self-leveling loader.
It is difficult. The host says Deere subcompacts are known for not handling two functions at the same time well, and keeping things perfectly level takes practice.
The host says it is safer and easier to handle for pallet work since the forks stay level automatically, which matters if you plan to use forks often.
