It's casual, unscripted, and light on numbers, with a fuller tractor review promised for later.
Posted by the Andy Garcia channel, an owner sharing hands-on, informal impressions from his own property rather than a dealer or reviewer.
The owner says the grapple is absolutely worth its weight in gold and he would get a grapple before a bucket, though a grapple will not hold dirt quite as well.
Yes, he used it to clear thick Cherokee rose vines from a berm, though the ground was wet and soft enough to cause wheel slip.
Yes, he shows the wheels slipping, turning, and spinning when the grapple pushes into the soft, wet ground despite four-wheel drive and water in the tires.
