It is hard to believe the TYM T474 tractor has been on the farm for almost 4 years. It has surely done a lot of work. In this video, we take the time to give you our honest review.

Upgraded my Kubota L3800 to the TYM494. I absolutely love its performance. Had it going on 3 years and it does everything I need it to. If I have a complaint, it would be the loader valve isn't as smooth as the Kubota. Having said that, no regrets and I recommend TYM to anyone I talk to about tractors. Enjoy your videos and how you and Tanya work together, I also enjoy watching your supervisor Gizmo.

The T474 is probably TYM's best seller, I've had mine for 4 years also and I'm soooooo satisified with this, I have now 478h on my Cab HST.

@rodgerneeb301 22 дня назад

I am also a member of the T474 club, mine is the Cab w/ Shuttle shift and third function & 2 rear remotes, loaded rear tires it is everything that I had hoped for. Less than a year of ownership, but approaching 180 hours.

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

The T474 is the third best seller only slightly behind the 2515. The T25 is number one. Pricing has a lot to do with that, but in my opinion, I think the T474 is the best value tractor on the market. It can do so much.

@JoeTheFarmer 22 дня назад

You have done a great job showing what that series tractor can do. Been fun watching that machine work!

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

More to Come!

@joerodrigues3816 21 день назад

Thanks again for sharing your experience and God bless you and your family and your friends mate. I do think you two are so amazing how you both work together and know what you’re both doing love it.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

Joe, It is always good to read your comments. God Bless

@HamiltonvilleFarm 20 дней назад

That 474 has definitely been a workhorse for you!

@user-mi5hb2oj3p 18 дней назад

I have a 494 shuttle shift cab. Basically same tractor as your 474 but bigger frame. I love it. Only issue I've had was a leaking seal on front axle but I'm pretty sure that was self inflicted. TYM makes a good tough tractor.

@TonysTractorAdventure 18 дней назад

I have heard of a few front axles on the T494 and T574 leaking. That guy as a stout loader. You got to be careful not to over load it. I really like the T494. Such a beast.

@MartyHenderson-ie9sp 21 день назад

I forgot to mention about the only thing I do not completely like on my T474 is having to reach down so low to find and use the three point hitch lever. In my personal experience, I would rather it be a little higher and outboard just a tick. But I also at the same time realize there is only so much room down there by the right hand side of the operator seat.

@MrJwh3000 21 день назад

Let her do it on her own. She's thriving to win. 😂 I would've helped after I said I'm not going to help too. Good job.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

That would be totally cool, If she fixed what she broke on her own. We have been married for 33 years. I am very aware of her skills set, but she has only been operating tractors over the last year. She is getting better everyday.

@tappedthatsugarshackhallad3909 22 дня назад

Awesome stuff, as always, guys. Great review

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

Thank you my friend.

@mileshiles1287 22 дня назад

Great review looks like you put everything thru its paces, which makes a good honest review.

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

Yes, Sir! TYM has sponsored our channel for years, but they have never asked us to say any thing or asked us to remove any thing. I have told a few things about the 2515 that I don't like in reviews, but again, they were supportive and said they would work on it.

@MartyHenderson-ie9sp 21 день назад

I started out looking at the T25 and the 2515. I am sooooo glad that my salesman gave me an outstanding deal on a new open station T474. I am still amazed at what this tractor is capable of and does it very well. I am going to keep my T474 and add a larger TYM cab tractor in the future. Thanks for the review on the T474.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I sure love the T474. I have often thought about moving to a cab tractor once we get our trails and property developed.

@W4GHW 22 дня назад

Thank you, Great video!

Thank you, my friend.

@davida.p.9911 22 дня назад

Great tractor! It's certainly a workhorse, no doubt about it!! Thanks for sharing, Tony!!

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I know we have worked it hard.

@user-tu6pi3fv3g 3 часа назад

Love the videos. How much do think that pallet of top soil weighs. Or what do you think the real world lift capacity is

@TonysTractorAdventure Час назад

I am guessing it weighed around 25-2600 lb. The topsoil was really wet.

@melaniekeen3611 22 дня назад

Tony we have a Tym 474CH we love it. Bought it from Smiths Enterprise.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

They are good people.

@danfarrell5177 19 дней назад

Likelihood of damage aside, that's a good loader trick. I must say, I'm surprised you ended up with that much topsoil individually packaged. Can you not have a truckful delivered for the price of all those bags?

@TonysTractorAdventure 19 дней назад

Some super sale at Rural King! My wife made me do it.

@mikepici5553 22 дня назад

Hey guys, beautiful day for a video

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

It was still very wet, but at least we had some fun. Raining again today.

@mossman7527 19 дней назад

Just looking at tym on Monday. Got my LS which is a great 45 hp tractor but there is one thing I’ve learned about tym that gets me thinking. There is a certain component on the engine that is easily removed that I cannot easily remove on my LS due to a computer program etc. forgot to add two years 400 hours on the LS and zero problems

@TonysTractorAdventure 19 дней назад

My T474 has never gone through Regen.

@johnjaymesgreatadventures4503 22 дня назад

Hey Tony! Inviting some input. I've been doing some research on tractors lately. I've narrowed it down to 3 brands, TYM, LS, and Kioti. We have 15 acres and currently on the list for a well to be drilled. In the mean time looking for a tractor that will be strong enough to lift 275 gallon water container. The 474 is pushing the limit, the TYM 494, and LS MT347 have a higher loader capacity. The 494 comes with a bigger footprint which can be a disadvantage in some cases. The Kioti tractors come with a bigger price, and dont know too much on the LS. I was dead set on the T474, until i calculated the weight of our water container at full capacity. What are yoir suggestions? Btw, you really make that T474 shine and at 4 years it still looks good! Love the channel! Keep the vids coming!

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

The T474 will not lift a full water tote. I know for sure. I lift my water tote at about 3/4 full. I have a 3/4 ton Ram 2500, and that is a lot of weight for it as well. I really know it is back there. If you are needing to move full containers, then the T494 would be a better fit.

@ThomasJustice-yq5kc 22 дня назад

Where did you purchase tractor canopy from or what brand is it and are you satisfied with it

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I think the company was sold. It was called Rhino canopy. This is the second tractor I mounted on.

@KenWPB 17 дней назад

I bought my T474 about eight months ago and have been working a 15 acre parcel with it with great satisfaction. However, I recently purchased a flail mower and attempted to hook it up to the PTO. What I discovered is the PTO will not engage. I thoroughly went through the manual and contacted multiple dealers, researched the Internet and followed all of the recommended diagnostic procedures. The PTO will not engagE. When I tried to obtain warranty service through my local dealer I was told they could not help because TYM is not paying warranty claims. I then reached out to my selling dealer who confirmed that T 4:06 YM is not paying their dealers and that he had recently “divorced himself“ from the brand and had sent all his tractors back to TYM. I have reached out to TYM through their website and have not heard back. I now have an expensive flail mower and an almost very nice tractor, which I cannot use. My biggest fear is that there is no source for parts or service from the brand!

@TonysTractorAdventure 17 дней назад

Have you checked the fuses? It is such a simple system. There's just not much to go wrong. Ensure the pto lever falls into gear. Sometimes you have to push forward on the PTO lever while bumping the engage button. This causes the gears to align. It's much more prevalent in a very new tractor. Now mine is broken in, and it falls into gear very easily.

@KenWPB 17 дней назад

Yes, I checked all fuses. I’m confident the lever is engaging Thanks for responding!

@TonysTractorAdventure 17 дней назад

If you don't get a response soon, please reach out to me on my website's contact page.

@KenWPB 17 дней назад

Much appreciated!

@stevetendrich398 21 день назад

Id say making your own mulch, is way better. You know what it is and know where it came from.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I agree. Heck, It is fun to make!

@mikepici5553 22 дня назад

Tony what are your thoughts on the 574

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I really like it. I have often struggled with moving up to the T574

@lawrencepevitts2434 22 дня назад

Tony, you look fantastic. Are you still loosing weight? You look 20 years younger. GOOD JOB!!! Does that tractor come in 4 wheel drive?

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

Thank you so much. Yes, I am loosing about 1 pound a month. I am working hard on the farm and spending about 5 hours each week in the gym. The T474 only comes in 4 wheel drive.

@michaelhodges3841 22 дня назад

Should have named this video "Tonya 's Tractor Adventure"

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

It is slowly changing. We though about changing our name to TTA Homestead

@martyh299 22 дня назад

Tony, if I am wrong for asking this, please forgive me. But do you have any idea why TYM ditched Josh of Stoney Ridge Farms?

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

Thank you for asking, but I will stay away from this question.

@brandenfindley5467 22 дня назад

Does the T474 have draft control?

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

No, you would have to move up to a T494 for draft control. The T474 is more of a general utility tractor. The T494 crosses over into the farm utility realm.

@brandenfindley5467 21 день назад

@TonysTractorAdventure That's a bummer. I get my 474 delivered tomorrow. I didn't realize the difference between the two when I ordered the 474. Hopefully, the 474 will still do everything I need it to.

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

I would only ever use draft control when plowing.

@brandenfindley5467 21 день назад

@TonysTractorAdventure thank you for the info. Your videos always provide great information, and one of the reasons why I chose TYM over the others.

@RealJeep 22 дня назад

Gizmo wants you to know that he is a "real dog". However, doing dog stuff, other than rolling is stinky things, is below him.

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

That's right! He doesn't like muddy feet.

@brianboomhower1663 22 дня назад

My T474 cab model with backhoe wouldn't lift a ton of heating pellets out of a dump truck either. I was disappointed but bad things probably would have happened. Love you TYM!

@TonysTractorAdventure 21 день назад

Your math is off a bit, and a bigger tractor would be the fix. TYM rates the tractor lifting capacity at just over 2100 pounds. They are rated at the pivot pins. Subtract 200 to 300 pounds for the forks and you are down to below 2000 pounds. Also, you lose lifting capacity the further you are away from the pins. You can pick up a 30 pound dumbbell up to your chest, but you can't hold it out straight in front of you. The tractor is no different. Your load was at least 4 foot out in front of the lift pins. You were in the same situation as me, other than my soil should have been around 1600 pound dry. I have no idea what it weighed being wet. I definitely overloaded it.

@RealJeep 22 дня назад

You have worked the crap outta that tractor and it has proven to be a hard worker. It's not a T25 but it's something to strive for ;-)

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

You know I love my T25. LOL. It has been such a workhorse too!

@Bigpoppas72 22 дня назад

Tony Long Time Viewer!! I have a question you guy's have been running the tym tractors for awhile. I guess my question is what made you leave. Ls? I'm in the market to buy one. So I was hoping you could give your input from the two of them. Thank you Guy's 😊

@TonysTractorAdventure 22 дня назад

LS makes a good tractor, but about 6 years ago, LS USA almost folded. Almost all of the people that I worked with at corporate office , save a few, are gone. It seems they have turned it around. I have some good friends working there now, and they really like the renewed company.

@Bigpoppas72 22 дня назад

Thank You!
