What happens here

The owner moves on to his TYM T1104, a 110 horsepower machine with a Doosan turbo diesel engine, 4-wheel drive, and a geared transmission offering 32 forward and 32 reverse gears, including a low-crawl feature. He primarily uses this tractor for mowing large areas with a Woods Batwing mower and pulling a drag harrow across his 150-acre farm. He highlights that he chose this specific model due to his belief in the TYM brand and its capability to handle heavy farm tasks. He notes that while he uses the loader for basic turning maneuvers near fences, he has never used it to lift heavy materials, preferring to use a skid steer loader for that purpose to avoid overstressing the tractor's axles, hydraulics, and cylinders. He also addresses parts availability, citing a positive experience with a hydraulic leak fix.

Goal: Assess the TYM T1104 for large-scale farm operations and its specific applications.

you go in the Atlanta Braves Stadium, you're going to see TYM TYM TYM everywhere. Honestly, do I think having TYM all over the uh Atlanta Brave Stadium is a better value than showing them working here on this farm? I don't know. I don't know. I I don't know. I think what speaks volumes is talking to the guy that actually runs a large piece of property and runs a farm like this because that's what you want to know. Does this guy trust this machine? Does he trust it? And the simple answer is let's talk about the 1104. The 1104 is 110 horsepower uh tractor with four-wheel drive. It is a geared tractor. It has something in the neighborhood of 32 forward gears and 32 reverse gears. It's got a low crawl feature that goes this fast. Literally this fast. I've never used it. I use this machine for mowing mainly for moving material. I'll tell you one thing. I have never ever put the bucket on that tractor and scooped up anything. Never. I've never used it. Should I have bought the loader system on this tractor if it was my only tractor and I was going to unload hay and stuff with it? Yes. Otherwise, for the loader cost right here is the best idea ever. Having a nice skid loader. So, you got to have two loaders on your farm. You do have to have two loaders on your farm. That loader and my skid loader, I think, were enough. I don't think if I had to do this again, if I got this tractor again, that I would get the loader system. It just seems like a waste. Like I said, I've never picked up a bail of hay with it. I've never used the secondary hydraulic on the front. I've never used that loader except to raise it to turn around real close to a gate or a fence. Okay, great tractor. I've had one problem with this tractor. I've had one problem with that tractor and I've had zero problems with the 254. The problem I have with this one is where the hydraulics connect up for all the loader system and everything. I had a leak in that. When I contacted TYM about it, the part showed up just like that. I didn't have these issues that people are talking about with not being able to find parts. I also understand the limitations of my machine. That tractor right there ain't going to pick up what this tractor picks up or what that skid loader over there will pick up. And if I overwork and overstress that tractor, I'm going to damage my loader. I'm going to damage my axles. I'm going to damage my hydraulic cylinders and I'm going to damage my hydraulic system. If you tear up your…
