Hello, I just wanted to add my two cents about the 5325 tractor, I own a 5325 bought it in june of this year the first time i put it to work I noticed the engine has no low end torque we use the tractor for doing grade work and brush hoging, I have a loader on it and haft the time I have to go to low range rev just to back up or if the ground is a little soft I got to take off in low range theirs just no power unless ur at full throttle, the dealer is no help they blame it on epa regulations The factory rep who I had to call was very rude and says there's nothing wrong with the tractor and to set the hand throttle a two K rpm and slip the clutch to take off I personaly dont treat a tractor that way. I talked about tradeing for a 5525 but the dealer wants another 5,000 to do that plus 10.00 dollars for every hour thats on my tractor 500hrs so thats another 5,000 for depreation so it's gonna cost me $10,000 just to get rid of the lemmon the dealer wants to make money on top of money on a bad situation thats not my fault,
PS My Uncle bought a 5325 a month after I did he put 25 hrs on it and parked it and bought his old Masy back just so he could make a living. Bottom line John Deere wont stand behind thactors and the dealers are like a car lot once they have your money they could care less about you....
