We lived in the middle of nowhere for 2 years. Your 25Mbps is a dream compared to the 1Mbs we got on a good day.
I really only managed it (I run a little web agency) by having an office in a nearby town with great broadband, but there was a lot I found I could do from home by thinking a bit more carefully about what I needed when, whether I needed to download X at that partiular moment or if I could get it in the office and work on it later, and so on. The mindfulness around this was actually really good working practice, but definitely frustrating at times.
I think the cap would probably be [strangely] more frustrating to me. I could at least leave something downloading overnight without worrying about any limits.
I'd say: go for it. Living in the middle of the country is an incredible life experience.
