New to posting here but wanted to add my humble opinion. (sorry if this is a long post)
I started my compact tractor search in 2021 when I moved to a 5-acre wooded lot in 2021. Finally settled on the Bobcat (BC) CT2025H in June 2022. The deal came with a zero-interest loan, FEL, backhoe, 3rd function and AG tires. I got the extended warranty too. 100% coverage (except normal wear and tear items) for 84 months with no deductible. The dealer ended up being the decision maker for me. We were greatly impressed with the Bobcat dealer in Ocala, Florida which is 2 hours SE of me. From sales to service everything was there.
The BC 2025 is a beast and I currently have about 350 hours on it. It has done everything I have asked of it, and more, clearing about 2-acres of some pretty big stumps and trees.
No issues until about a month ago when we got hit in the teeth by Hurricane Idalia. While cleaning out several hundred trees that were snapped about 15 feet above ground. Something must have snagged the lower radiator hose and cracked the radiator. Called the dealer and was told it was 100% covered and I could bring it in or they could pick it up in a week (free). I took it there and they asked if there was anything else that needed to be checked. I pointed out the front rubber CV joint covers were torn and mentioned that there was some slop and drop in the FEL hydraulics.
A day later I received a call that the radiator had been replaced and that they wanted to keep it because they think it may have some bypass in the FEL hydraulics. They offered a loaner tractor for free (warranty covered this too) but I declined due to minor surgery I was having. Two days later they called and advised they submitted a warranty claim for replacing all 4 FEL hydraulic cylinders. It took a week or so but they got the approval and replaced the cylinders "so I wouldn't have any additional or growing problems". Other than being without the tractor for the diagnose, claim approval, and repair time, it was a flawless process. Total cost was almost twice what I paid for the warranty and 100% covered, except the CV boots so total out of pocket was about $100. Love my dealer and my tractor. I hope this may help someone.
