I hear you! If someone wants to make me smile, all they have to do is ask about tractor life! You’ve done much more than me in a years time! 180 hrs. in my first year! I got the Frontier mechanical grapple for my 3032E. It’s the most versatile attachment ever!🤗👊
Definitely are great tractors, I thought I was putting on some hours you have double the hours of mine. I have been clearing dead ash trees on my property, would love a grapple but pallet forks work for now. Mine is going in for some warranty work, 3 point control is sticking and loader valve seeps if I use it alot. Other then that I love it!
Yeah I've heard forks are really versatile. I forget to mention in the video that I got my 3 point valve replaced. It just didn't operate very smoothly.
Well Sir, with 544 hours in on year & having a Full-Time Job you surly have had a LOT of "Adventures". Getting your use out of your "Rig" is were it's At;; instead of just " making twack-tor payments" and oil change vidios, loader removal vidios. Your "Adventures " have been Very Entertaining & Informative. You are certainly on your way to "set a record" with the hours you are putting on your Tractor. Just kind of looks like ( on the front tires) that the 4 wheel drive shifter went into "Gear" and the lever "Fell OFF" on Day One! ( just use 4WD 10% of the time unless I'm getting stuck --; my tires look almost NEW with 925hours). Keep up the good work, be safe with you endeavours & thank you for you for ALL Your Great Vidios.
Good info... BTW the backhoes are like almost 12k now! Yup! I got mine for just under 9k, but it was on back order for 9 months. When I finally got it, they tried to charge me the NEW full price which was 3k more. Unreal! This machine I have now would cost me 10k more to buy it now, than it did a year ago!
If you decided at some point to upgrade to the 3R series, would the implements you have work with a 3R? Just curious. You’ve done a LOT of work with that tractor in one year! Love the videos.
Yes! Everything I have now would work. Without looking it up, it’s m not sure how much wider the 3 series is compared to the 2. Right now I have all 5ft implements.
DO NOT BUY JD PARTS MADE IN CHINA!!!!! After a year parts are falling off due to not tightened right at the factory. JD uses Kubota tranny now. Height limiter on the 60" belly mower will wear out due to cheap extruded aluminum. My 2005 JD 2210 was built MUCH better and lasted 18 years. This one is a little over a year old and falling apart. JD does NOT care and will not warranty anything past 1 year.

I love my frontier av20f grapple, but I would like to try other brands just so I can see and compare the difference.
I gave your dogs a thumbs up. Thanks for the video.
I’ll make sure they get some extra treats! Thanks for watching!

These things are nice, I’m looking to buy one with a loader and a back hoe but it’s crazy expensive
This week marks 2 years now. I think the backhoe was 9k 2 years ago. Now it’s like 12k. I just couldn’t afford it.
@@simpsonstractorworks4263 it’s crazy how inflation has affected things so much.
Thanks for the review and including mistakes you've made.
You're welcome Daniel and thanks for watching. I broke something pretty big today. That video coming soon.
@@simpsonstractorworks4263 Sounds costly. Looking forward to learning from your experience.

Good grief! I’d no idea that they’d gone up that much…wow.

They would fit, but may not be ideal for a 3 series size-wise.
Yes! Everything I have now would work. Without looking it up, it’s m not sure how much wider the 3 series is compared to the 2. Right now I have all 5ft implements.
Good vid buddy
Thanks for watching Sam!
A cab is the next on the list. I have the 3033r open cab now
Yeah, if it was my job to be on the tractor all day, then there is no other way to go than enclosed.
Ground bees and sneezing from brush hogging in triple digit temps in July sure would be fixed with A/C in a cab. 😁
@@adamjones8218 you got that right!
