I purchased a Mahindra Max 28xl HST in 2013, #1 price #2 no regenerative canister #3 flexibility. My tractor is equipped with a backhoe and loader. I also purchased a Landpride rotary mower, box blade, and landscape rake. I later added a Grapple on the bucket and 5 ft disc. I love my tractor.
Mahindra started by assembling International B275 tractors in India way back in the 1970s. My dad had one which worked for over 25 years. I had a Mahindra 475 DI for a long time. Never let me down. Glad that Mahindra tractors are being sold in the USA. All these great machines are the results of continuous development and research. They are worthy successors to the venerable B275.
this old man in my village (in india) brought mahindra 265 di 30hp tractor in 1994 and he still go for work in his tractor which work totally fine, that thing don't even have proper engine oil😂😂
I bought my tractor from Sultan as well. He has always been a pleasure to work with. My little Max 26 is working above it's weight after Michael and continues to impress.
Just took delivery of a new Mahindra 2638 HST with cab last week. Haven't got to take it out for its first job, weather has been really wet, but I am looking forward to trying it out. I agree with you on the no DEF. That's a big plus. Also, the dealer has been really great. Had a Kubota before and it was OK but the Mahindra certainly appears to be better built.
While I am VERY VERY interested in Mahindra, my only pause is there are no dealers in the true sense here in mid-Missouri ( we have one half-baked place that handles mahindra as well as several other brands but no building, no service dept etc.) It is at least a 6 hour drive to the nearest service center.
I just ran across your channel recently. Love your videos!! I think you are doing an awesome job. Keep up the good work. I find your videos to be really informative and inspirational.
Got my new leftover 2017 4540 2wd delivered today. Awesome tractor for what I paid. I got the new tractor with loader and 6ft bush hog for $16500 out the door! Tax exempt too.
@@TheSonsOfSimon I have had the tractor for a year now, I have 140ish hours on it and I have had ZERO problems with it! I bushhog (brush hog for non-southerners) 20 + acres. I use the front loader constantly mostly with a pallet fork attachment. It truly is a very tough, solid, heavy tractor. No complaints at all.
I got 8 acres of sandy soil in central Florida I plan on using my future tractor for mowing , garden plots and moving lots of mulch. I feel in love with the 5145 but no sure if it's over kill for my needs
Have a 4540. I agree about weight / HP and also like they, are formed sheet metal not molded plastic and guards like over the PTO fold out of they way instead of needing to be removed. They bucket weight / size is more inline with the tractor size than others I've had too .
All good points. I don't need a tractor that 4540 heavy, but the one I have in mind has the weight of many top brand nearly 40hp Tractors and lifting capacity front and rear in the +40 hp range at an unbeatable price.
@@HamiltonvilleFarm Oh I have. And That's exactly the brand I'm looking at. Your spring video with the Branson rep I have watched a couple times on the 2515. RK Has something equivalent but 35hp and more $$. The nearest Branson dealer gets great reviews but 82 miles away which I don't think is a problem. Kioti dealer closer but also more money and the 2610 has less weight, lift capacity etc. Thanks.
I have the smaller mahindra, the 1526 shuttle. It outweighs my neighbors 38 hp jd. He has a 6 foot disc and has a hard time pulling it once the ground is busted up. I tore into 2 acres and had no problems. Will be posting videos on my channel soon.
The masses go to the big advertisers -- Deere and Kubota. There's nothing wrong with these "big brand" compact tractors, but there are many alternatives (like Mahindra, Branson, Kioti, LS, etc) that offer more power, capacities, weight and features for the same money. As many have already said, having a good dealer nearby is a major item that should be considered prior to purchasing, along with getting a tractor that fits your needs.
Where I live you can go buy a Mahindra and a Harley at the same time. The Harley Davidson dealership started selling Mahindras a few years back. I am thinking they started to have something to sell at winter. Not riding a Harley in the snow.
So: No DPF or Regen (No DEF), its Solid, HvyWt compared to competitors, Great Dealer support (!), and I'll add the long Warranty period.. More Bang for the Buck.
Well, the nice thing about owning Kubotas, and I have owned a Kubota since 1984, you don't need to marry the dealer. In fact, I have only brought back a tractor to a dealer on a recall, once back in 2010.
@@HamiltonvilleFarm I am sorry but i can't find the clip you are talking about the guy you mentioned is talking about an LS tractor never the less all i am saying is the things people mentioned are all pedestrian, You have to have the right size tractor for the task at hand.
Jesus its a dinosaur from the 60s. Compare it to the John Deere 5075 and 5100 we use on our three farms we have 3 of each. And two older 3140. These are real tractors. And that mahindra loader wouldn’t last us a year.
That's a huge difference for a 40hp tractor vs a 75/100 hp tractor. Not apples to apples. Especially for $30k more than what I paid for mine. But those older JD do take a beating, I'll give you that. They are nice tractors.
Lol, for the price they kick ass! Had mine for 4 years, not one problem. Main reason I bought it was to unload semi truck loads of salt pallets that weigh 2500 lbs and load them on our trucks to maintain parking lots in the winter. Of course it gets used for dirt, gravel, millings, brush hogging and anything else. Even lifting shingles up to the roof. You sound like a fool cutting down what you don't know.
I drove Mahindra 1) very powerful. 2) hardly need any upkeep or repair 3) I could service, oil change, grease wheels and wash at home... I can teach kids how to service, oils and grease...such great machine...
@@Colonel1Bravo great to know that globalisation is creating opportunities for both our nations. We here enjoy a lot of American brands in our daily lives.
Thanks Hank, have to agree with you on your 2nd and 3rd reasons to buy a Mahindra, not to mention the price difference on a compatible horsepower Tractor. I just purchased the Mahindra 2638 after several months worth of research.
Another thing to mention about Mahindra is they used to build tractors for IH back in 1963 so they do know something about building tractors and they have been around since 1945 and also built Willy's Jeeps back in 1947. Agree with you on weight I was a mechanic for a local John Deere dealer and the transmissions, and final drives where cast aluminum. And I hate the regen process dumbest thing ever.
Mahindra and HS are both great tractors. I'm glad our Asian allies are sending us such great products. It broke my heart when the deal to bring Mahindra trucks over to the US fell through. There hasn't been a small diesel truck in the US since Datsun went out of business. It's a truck for true off roaders, not the dorks with a $4,000 suspension and another 5 grand of tires that are afraid to go on a dirt road because of scratches. Douches.
I live in Canada, it's minus twenty out, I know nothing about tractors and I'll never buy one in my life. For some reason I ended up watching your video and enjoyed it. Thanks and good luck.
These tractors DO have an EGR system, I recommend a bypass oil filter to help clean the soot particulates out of the engine oil. Soot is very abrasive and while there is no regen system, or DEF (diesel exhaust fluid), or DPF (diesel particulate filter), there IS an EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) , so scrub out that soot and your engine will last way longer before you need to rebuild.
I live in Panama City as well. I bought my 1st Mahindra in 2008, a 2615, and just bought my 2nd 1626 from SAGA and Sultan. Same models, just different #. Saga is the best in our area. Good prices and always helpful. My older unit still runs great. I have 600 hours on it. But I need grappler and backhoe hydraulics plus skid steer latches for the next hurricane we get. I also have a 1998 JD 310D backhoe but she requires a huge trailer, huge truck to pull it and a skilled driver. The new 1626 will be the wife's landscaping back hoe and my 14 yo grandson's work horse. Did you use foam in your tires and do you think that would help my 1626? Great videos!
I own two Mahindra tractors, a 1635 and a Max 26 XLT. I chose them over Deere and Kubota because Mahindra offered more tractor for less money. More features, the dealer wasn’t arrogant and he’s even hauled it for free when it was time for service
Hey just found the channel and subscribed👍 I too looked at the Mahindra but went another way look like great tractors though. I will say my tractor has the DPF and has gone through 2 regens in 95 hrs the engine has to reach a certain temp before it kicks in and then just revs higher and you keep on working no wasting time or slowing down, takes about ten minutes.
Idk why people always talk or complain about having to regen like you said most of the time it will happen while your working and doesnt slow you down any just keep working so that really isnt a deal breaker the mahindra uses an egr like setup where it recirculates the exhaust gases and runs a hotter exhaust system to burn off the soot and whatever else so basically its always running hotter exhaust and recirculating instead of trapping the exhaust and only running hotter to burn it off as needed so idk which engine will last longer the 1 always running hotter to burn off the exhaust and steady recirculating it back into the engine or the 1 that traps the exhaust doesnt recirculate it and only runs it hot when needed to burn it off i guess time will tell but i would think regen would be better and last longer than always running the exhaust hotter and recirculating the exhaust back into the engine but like everyone says its really up to the options you want, distance to dealer, and which dealer has better service because no matter what brand they all have issues sometimes
@@HamiltonvilleFarm yes i am interested to see which system ends up lasting longer having less problems but they all have some type of issue like everybody says options dealer distance and dealer service is what matters most about like car makers whatever is best for you they will all get work done
To regen on brand new tractors you have to rev it UP. I can regen and work normally. 2019 John Deere 3038e. I do however understand your point about a heavier tractor. They tend to handle bumps much better. 👍
Mahindra 1626 HST Zero interest, Zero down from Cliff Jones could'nt beat package deal. great sales person Henry Skinner no high pressure salesman, this are the number check it out. But I really wanted a Branson 2515 Hydro package from Big Tex; Cliff Jones was closer just outside Houston in Sealy Tx.
Bought my 2018 Mahindra 2638 tractor 🚜 and have great service here in Canada 🇨🇦 Campbellton New Brunswick, dealer is BREMNER’S FARM LTD. Top notch service
I have a 26 Max shuttle, and it is a beast, when I compared it to the other big names in its class the build quality as well as the PRICE made my decision for me. It was a no brainer. I had no idea green or orange paint and plastic cost so much.. As for the dpf, wasn't an issue, as tractors in the class I was looking for aren't required to have them........ Yet!
Bought a 2538 with cab last November. It's main purpose is snow plowing\blowing. I looked at deer (historically we've been a deer family), Kubota, Mahindra, and TYM. Deer had nothing available in Ontario until the spring (in our size range) Kubota dealer treated me like a leper. TYM had a very good offering and very knowledgeable dealer. Chose the Mahindra bad on dealer, location, 0 % financing, and got more tractor and implements for less than green or orange. Had to send the tractor in in January for it's 50 hour service, picked up, serviced, returned in one day. The dealer recognized that this is a work tool and needs to be available when the snow flies. Jim at Arnstein is the guy to see.
There are lot of other companies in India like john deer farmtrac , massey and new holland all the these foreign companies build tractors in india with mahindra stratogy i.e right to repair and heavy duty farm track 60 in india can haul weight upto 6 ton and the yractor is only 50 hp has a great torque but its sad to know native american companies dont off these qualities anymore
Well that's funny you said all 3 reasons that I had before you got to your number one!!! I didn't care so much about my dealer but the weight of the machine No regen and steel axles and tranny instead of aluminum... That's why I will stick with mahindra forever.
Hey Hank I've got a 1538 mahindra 4 wheel drive I've got the backhoel loader bucket tiller an bushog very well pleased it 6 years old haven't had any trouble out of it at all work the fire out of it .
I own a 2538 HST and I would put my brut up against any compact and even some utility tractors. The weight from the cast iron construction and the mCR engine sold me. I grew up with green on my family dairy farm and I wouldnt touch a green tractor in these categories. Cant wait to see more videos with this Mahindra
Just found your channel and subbed Solid points and thats good looking Tractor. I agree with regeneration and it being a pain. Your 💯 right on Dealership being most important thing. Thanks for Sharing your hobby farm journey 👍.
Number 1 to me is the NO emission crap!! Number 2 was the price in comparison to similar tractors although the dealer I bought it from wasn’t too professional but who cares about that
I picked the Kubota Grand L3560 HSTC. I had researched several models, but ended up limiting my choice to three models, John Deere, Mahindra, and Kubota. The reason being is that I'm a new tractor owner and wanted to make sure I had a local dealer that would help me, give me advice,, and not be several hours away. After looking at the different tractors, checking the price, and talking to the dealers, the Kubota dealer met my needs the best. In addition, I had friends that had purchased Kubotas and knew the dealership. They all had really good service from them, although the service they had needed over the years had all been routine type service, which I was glad to hear that. So, my number one reason was the dealer. Number 2 reason was brand reputation. Doing research it seemed like everything was compared to either John Deere or Kubota. I noticed looking at used models, both the John Deere and Kubota held a higher resale value than other tractors. I figured if I was going to purchase a tractor, might as well try to get one that would hold the greatest value of the long run. My number 3 reason was that they had the tractor I liked. All the tractors were nice. I really liked the looks of the LS tractor, but the dealer was almost 3 hours away, so that ruled them out. Looking John Deere, I didn't care for their compact tractors, but their larger tractors were really nice. Yet, I couldn't figure out what in the world I would need a 100+ horse power tractor for and I absolute couldn't justify the cost. After looking at the Kubota tractors and thankfully my wife went with me, I really liked the Kubota cab tractors. I ended up picking the Kubota Grand L3560 HSTC. It has the hydro-static drive, came with loader and would pull the 72 inch rotary mower that I was wanting. The weight of my tractor with cab, loader, and beet juice tires is 5,157lbs (roughly). So, it has the weight I need to do the work I'm planning on doing. 37HP engine and 28HP PTO will run the items that I'm planning on using start first with the rotary mower. If money wasn't an issue, I would of went with the L6060, but since I haven't found that magic tree that money grows on, I had to find the best machine to meet my needs for the money I could afford. I think one of the biggest things that I'm glad I purchased on my tractor that I initially wasn't looking for is cab. I really didn't think a cab would be that important or that valuable. I was wrong. The cab has allowed me to go out and mow after work in 90 degree heat. I have had ZERO issue with bugs thanks to the cab. My wife gets all the credit for the cab, because if she hadn't went with me, I wouldn't of purchased a cab. Yet after having a cab, if I ever replace this tractor i will get another one with a cab. So, these are the reasons I picked my tractor.
Kubota was second on my list. Those are all 3 solid reasons. Glad you got one that works for you. That cab sure does make a difference 👍 thanks for the comment. Enjoy the tractor. I hope it serves you well for a long time.
Great video, my jd4320 has served me perfectly over the last 9 years. The new pricing on JD is really over the top and I will not be upgrading to the 4066r, not to mention Deere flying lawyers around to defeat the fix it your self farmers.
I own a mahindra 1533 and the motor and transmission is fine, BUT everything else is garbage. Sway bars are cheap cast iron that break easily. I’ve bought two pair every year. I got tired of getting hydraulic leaks fixed so now I just let it leak because I don’t have time to take it to the shop every time it leaks. I wouldn’t buy another Mahindra. I’m gonna trade it for a Kabota or maybe a John Deer.
Confidence in a dealership is very important. It is also important to be able to get service and parts. Best to purchase a tractor not too far from home. I purchased a Kubota L2501 because it was either going to be a John Deere or Kubota because of parts and service. The Kubota won because I am more confident with the dealer and am one that appreciates metal over plastic. Through the years John Deere has cheapened their products and are not all that great a value. The 25 HP engine also does not have that troublesome self cleaning function you talked about. I just have about 80 acres with lots of woods. l really don't need a tractor any larger for doing things quicker. I mostly grade. But I am going to get a grapple I have a lot of things I want to do with it, but mostly clean up and ridding of small trees roots and all and perhaps getting rid of a couple of smaller stumps. I do also have a rotary cutter, forks, wood chipper front loader and a quick hitch as well. I think John Deere looks prettier but I will settle on the power of orange. Nice video. May God bless!
I bought a 2555 about 2.5 years ago. I'm coming up on 300 hours. It's a TYM with a Mahindra engine. I looked at the 4500 series and liked them a lot. One decision point was the transmission. I liked the gear but figured I would need the HST and I was right. The no DPF was an important selling point. One thing to be aware of is you have to run those engines to clean them. If you are one of those guys who likes to run around just above idle to save fuel, you are going to have trouble with your Mahindra (or other non-dpf engine). For me dealer proximity was important too since I don't own a vehicle large enough to tow it and therefor would be dependent on the dealer pickup/delivery. The other important issue for me was lifting capacity. Like yours it seems higher than comparable tractors. I carry around totes filled with 250 gallons of water with mine. Actually the 4540 might be a bit better for that since it is heavier. Good luck with your 4540!
@@HamiltonvilleFarm oh yeah, I remember the Messicks guy explained that the Mahindras are basically producing heat all the time as opposed to occasionally as the DPF does, so that system isn't necessarily any better
Funny this came across my tread today. We are going to look at these tractors tomorrow. We need 2, we are selling our small horse farm and buying land in Tennessee.
Yes please do. It's a very important decision. Make sure you are asking tons of questions from the dealer, friends, other tractor owners etc, then buy what you think meets all your needs at the price you can afford. I love my 4540. It's a beast of a tractor. Looking forward to hearing what you end up getting👍

Our 5500s weight 5000lbs without weights (roughly 54 engine ponies), the '07, which has a 1200 pound loader is roughly 6200lbs, our '03 has 4 rear wheel weights, which I guestimate to be roughly 120-130 pounds each, and it has 10 37kg wights on the front (roughly 6300 pounds total).
I thought the Mirandra was a good reliable tractor and what you have shown me so far on these demo's is what I thought these tractor's can do. Thanks good reliable tractor
I looked at all the Tractor manufacturers before I decided on my Kubota L 4701, yes it has the DPF as all Kubotas above the 25 horse models are nowadays.But unlike the Deere and some others, the Kubota can and will regene while working and does not have to stop for this process, My reasons for going with the Kubota was reliability and the Fact that Kubotas are 100 percent Kubota, it’s my understanding that everything is made in house except for the tires, but they do even press their own wheels. Does this extend to the hydraulic hoses and fittings? I’m not sure, but this was big to me plus I don’t think plastic belongs on a tractor, these 2 things steered me away from John Deere regrettably because I would love a green tractor. John Deere has a formidable reputation, but they just could not pass the sniff test and they will only regene while parked, The Kubota parked or working will perform this function and that’s big ! But after 4 yrs of ownership I have no legitimate complaints.
How this government love farmers we all can see expensive tractors, expensive fuel expensive everything, but when you what to sale your production they gives you a penny.
I purchased a Mahindra Max 28xl HST in 2013, #1 price #2 no regenerative canister #3 flexibility. My tractor is equipped with a backhoe and loader. I also purchased a Landpride rotary mower, box blade, and landscape rake. I later added a Grapple on the bucket and 5 ft disc. I love my tractor.

@@Colonel1Bravo great to know that globalisation is creating opportunities for both our nations. We here enjoy a lot of American brands in our daily lives.
I think he meant "reputable"
Thanks Hank, have to agree with you on your 2nd and 3rd reasons to buy a Mahindra, not to mention the price difference on a compatible horsepower Tractor. I just purchased the Mahindra 2638 after several months worth of research.
Thanks for watching 👍
Another thing to mention about Mahindra is they used to build tractors for IH back in 1963 so they do know something about building tractors and they have been around since 1945 and also built Willy's Jeeps back in 1947. Agree with you on weight I was a mechanic for a local John Deere dealer and the transmissions, and final drives where cast aluminum. And I hate the regen process dumbest thing ever.
Thanks for that 👍
Mahindra and HS are both great tractors. I'm glad our Asian allies are sending us such great products.
It broke my heart when the deal to bring Mahindra trucks over to the US fell through. There hasn't been a small diesel truck in the US since Datsun went out of business. It's a truck for true off roaders, not the dorks with a $4,000 suspension and another 5 grand of tires that are afraid to go on a dirt road because of scratches. Douches.
Thanks for watching!

I live in Canada, it's minus twenty out, I know nothing about tractors and I'll never buy one in my life. For some reason I ended up watching your video and enjoyed it. Thanks and good luck.
Lol. Well, we're glad you did👍 cheers
I bought my Mahindra because they had the good sense to advertise with Rush Limbaugh at EIB.
Yes sir!👍🏻

These tractors DO have an EGR system, I recommend a bypass oil filter to help clean the soot particulates out of the engine oil. Soot is very abrasive and while there is no regen system, or DEF (diesel exhaust fluid), or DPF (diesel particulate filter), there IS an EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) , so scrub out that soot and your engine will last way longer before you need to rebuild.
I live in Panama City as well. I bought my 1st Mahindra in 2008, a 2615, and just bought my 2nd 1626 from SAGA and Sultan. Same models, just different #. Saga is the best in our area. Good prices and always helpful. My older unit still runs great. I have 600 hours on it. But I need grappler and backhoe hydraulics plus skid steer latches for the next hurricane we get. I also have a 1998 JD 310D backhoe but she requires a huge trailer, huge truck to pull it and a skilled driver. The new 1626 will be the wife's landscaping back hoe and my 14 yo grandson's work horse. Did you use foam in your tires and do you think that would help my 1626? Great videos!
I filled the rears with water. Sultan is a good guy.
I own two Mahindra tractors, a 1635 and a Max 26 XLT. I chose them over Deere and Kubota because Mahindra offered more tractor for less money. More features, the dealer wasn’t arrogant and he’s even hauled it for free when it was time for service
Thanks for watching 👍
Hey just found the channel and subscribed👍 I too looked at the Mahindra but went another way look like great tractors though. I will say my tractor has the DPF and has gone through 2 regens in 95 hrs the engine has to reach a certain temp before it kicks in and then just revs higher and you keep on working no wasting time or slowing down, takes about ten minutes.
Idk why people always talk or complain about having to regen like you said most of the time it will happen while your working and doesnt slow you down any just keep working so that really isnt a deal breaker the mahindra uses an egr like setup where it recirculates the exhaust gases and runs a hotter exhaust system to burn off the soot and whatever else so basically its always running hotter exhaust and recirculating instead of trapping the exhaust and only running hotter to burn it off as needed so idk which engine will last longer the 1 always running hotter to burn off the exhaust and steady recirculating it back into the engine or the 1 that traps the exhaust doesnt recirculate it and only runs it hot when needed to burn it off i guess time will tell but i would think regen would be better and last longer than always running the exhaust hotter and recirculating the exhaust back into the engine but like everyone says its really up to the options you want, distance to dealer, and which dealer has better service because no matter what brand they all have issues sometimes
It will be interesting to see how this plays out on engines with 1000 hours on it. Good point.
@@HamiltonvilleFarm yes i am interested to see which system ends up lasting longer having less problems but they all have some type of issue like everybody says options dealer distance and dealer service is what matters most about like car makers whatever is best for you they will all get work done
To regen on brand new tractors you have to rev it UP. I can regen and work normally. 2019 John Deere 3038e. I do however understand your point about a heavier tractor. They tend to handle bumps much better. 👍
Good input. Thanks for the comment 👍
nice video dear love from India 👍👍

Mahindra 1626 HST Zero interest, Zero down from Cliff Jones could'nt beat package deal. great sales person Henry Skinner no high pressure salesman, this are the number check it out. But I really wanted a Branson 2515 Hydro package from Big Tex; Cliff Jones was closer just outside Houston in Sealy Tx.
Just bought a Kioti with hydro. I was set on a shuttle shift until my wife said she wanted to drive it.....That's why I wanted gears so she wouldn't.
I hear ya. 👍
Bought my 2018 Mahindra 2638 tractor 🚜 and have great service here in Canada 🇨🇦 Campbellton New Brunswick, dealer is BREMNER’S FARM LTD. Top notch service
Good stuff. And that's a nice tractor. Stay warm👍 cheers.
I have a 26 Max shuttle, and it is a beast, when I compared it to the other big names in its class the build quality as well as the PRICE made my decision for me. It was a no brainer. I had no idea green or orange paint and plastic cost so much.. As for the dpf, wasn't an issue, as tractors in the class I was looking for aren't required to have them........ Yet!
Thanks for watching 👍
Bought a 2538 with cab last November. It's main purpose is snow plowing\blowing. I looked at deer (historically we've been a deer family), Kubota, Mahindra, and TYM.
Deer had nothing available in Ontario until the spring (in our size range) Kubota dealer treated me like a leper. TYM had a very good offering and very knowledgeable dealer. Chose the Mahindra bad on dealer, location, 0 % financing, and got more tractor and implements for less than green or orange. Had to send the tractor in in January for it's 50 hour service, picked up, serviced, returned in one day. The dealer recognized that this is a work tool and needs to be available when the snow flies.
Jim at Arnstein is the guy to see.
Great to hear that. I tell everybody, you marry the dealer, not the tractor. Lol. Thanks for the comment 👍
🙄Ohh my god
In India that's why farmers keep it 🚜 as life partner in villages

Yes they are becoming even more popular every day. They make a great tractor 👍 thank you for the comment!

There are lot of other companies in India like john deer farmtrac , massey and new holland all the these foreign companies build tractors in india with mahindra stratogy i.e right to repair and heavy duty farm track 60 in india can haul weight upto 6 ton and the yractor is only 50 hp has a great torque but its sad to know native american companies dont off these qualities anymore
Well that's funny you said all 3 reasons that I had before you got to your number one!!! I didn't care so much about my dealer but the weight of the machine No regen and steel axles and tranny instead of aluminum... That's why I will stick with mahindra forever.
Hey Hank I've got a 1538 mahindra 4 wheel drive I've got the backhoel loader bucket tiller an bushog very well pleased it 6 years old haven't had any trouble out of it at all work the fire out of it .
I like the Mahindra compact tractor. I'm just afraid of it off set rearend. It's not the typical straight axle.
I own a 2538 HST and I would put my brut up against any compact and even some utility tractors. The weight from the cast iron construction and the mCR engine sold me. I grew up with green on my family dairy farm and I wouldnt touch a green tractor in these categories. Cant wait to see more videos with this Mahindra
That's awesome. They definitely punch above their weight class. I appreciate the comment. Have a great weekend 👍
Just found your channel and subbed Solid points and thats good looking Tractor. I agree with regeneration and it being a pain. Your 💯 right on Dealership being most important thing. Thanks for Sharing your hobby farm journey 👍.
Welcome. Thanks for the feedback. 👍🏻
Most of the indians don't even know that their so called 'local' tractors are used worldwide
Thanks for watching 👍
Number 1 to me is the NO emission crap!! Number 2 was the price in comparison to similar tractors although the dealer I bought it from wasn’t too professional but who cares about that
Right on👍
You wanna know why mahindra's service is good... Just try to search about the its owner..
I picked the Kubota Grand L3560 HSTC. I had researched several models, but ended up limiting my choice to three models, John Deere, Mahindra, and Kubota. The reason being is that I'm a new tractor owner and wanted to make sure I had a local dealer that would help me, give me advice,, and not be several hours away. After looking at the different tractors, checking the price, and talking to the dealers, the Kubota dealer met my needs the best. In addition, I had friends that had purchased Kubotas and knew the dealership. They all had really good service from them, although the service they had needed over the years had all been routine type service, which I was glad to hear that. So, my number one reason was the dealer.
Number 2 reason was brand reputation. Doing research it seemed like everything was compared to either John Deere or Kubota. I noticed looking at used models, both the John Deere and Kubota held a higher resale value than other tractors. I figured if I was going to purchase a tractor, might as well try to get one that would hold the greatest value of the long run.
My number 3 reason was that they had the tractor I liked. All the tractors were nice. I really liked the looks of the LS tractor, but the dealer was almost 3 hours away, so that ruled them out. Looking John Deere, I didn't care for their compact tractors, but their larger tractors were really nice. Yet, I couldn't figure out what in the world I would need a 100+ horse power tractor for and I absolute couldn't justify the cost. After looking at the Kubota tractors and thankfully my wife went with me, I really liked the Kubota cab tractors. I ended up picking the Kubota Grand L3560 HSTC. It has the hydro-static drive, came with loader and would pull the 72 inch rotary mower that I was wanting. The weight of my tractor with cab, loader, and beet juice tires is 5,157lbs (roughly). So, it has the weight I need to do the work I'm planning on doing. 37HP engine and 28HP PTO will run the items that I'm planning on using start first with the rotary mower. If money wasn't an issue, I would of went with the L6060, but since I haven't found that magic tree that money grows on, I had to find the best machine to meet my needs for the money I could afford.
I think one of the biggest things that I'm glad I purchased on my tractor that I initially wasn't looking for is cab. I really didn't think a cab would be that important or that valuable. I was wrong. The cab has allowed me to go out and mow after work in 90 degree heat. I have had ZERO issue with bugs thanks to the cab. My wife gets all the credit for the cab, because if she hadn't went with me, I wouldn't of purchased a cab. Yet after having a cab, if I ever replace this tractor i will get another one with a cab.
So, these are the reasons I picked my tractor.
Kubota was second on my list. Those are all 3 solid reasons. Glad you got one that works for you. That cab sure does make a difference 👍 thanks for the comment. Enjoy the tractor. I hope it serves you well for a long time.
Great video, my jd4320 has served me perfectly over the last 9 years. The new pricing on JD is really over the top and I will not be upgrading to the 4066r, not to mention Deere flying lawyers around to defeat the fix it your self farmers.
+SC Rules I hear ya. I'm really digging my 4540
Hi,
Is there any rust issues or any problems with the tractor? Please advise
I own a mahindra 1533 and the motor and transmission is fine, BUT everything else is garbage. Sway bars are cheap cast iron that break easily. I’ve bought two pair every year. I got tired of getting hydraulic leaks fixed so now I just let it leak because I don’t have time to take it to the shop every time it leaks. I wouldn’t buy another Mahindra. I’m gonna trade it for a Kabota or maybe a John Deer.
Thanks for the comment
its king of TRACTOR s world
If you chose mahindra... At least it would be maintenance free for at least 3 years...Easy to service... Most of the Parts are cheap..
Thanks
what performance aspect of tractors do people find still need improvement.
+Iron Baron good question. I'm sure they're are some big brains in the agriculture Industry that are working hard on that. 👍
Confidence in a dealership is very important. It is also important to be able to get service and parts. Best to purchase a tractor not too far from home. I purchased a Kubota L2501 because it was either going to be a John Deere or Kubota because of parts and service. The Kubota won because I am more confident with the dealer and am one that appreciates metal over plastic. Through the years John Deere has cheapened their products and are not all that great a value. The 25 HP engine also does not have that troublesome self cleaning function you talked about. I just have about 80 acres with lots of woods. l really don't need a tractor any larger for doing things quicker. I mostly grade. But I am going to get a grapple I have a lot of things I want to do with it, but mostly clean up and ridding of small trees roots and all and perhaps getting rid of a couple of smaller stumps. I do also have a rotary cutter, forks, wood chipper front loader and a quick hitch as well. I think John Deere looks prettier but I will settle on the power of orange. Nice video. May God bless!
Yeah Garry, you got that right. It's all about the dealer really. 👍
Mahindra is a very good and solid brand in INDIA. My father had Mahindra tractor since 20 yrs .
right on!
I bought a 2555 about 2.5 years ago. I'm coming up on 300 hours. It's a TYM with a Mahindra engine. I looked at the 4500 series and liked them a lot. One decision point was the transmission. I liked the gear but figured I would need the HST and I was right. The no DPF was an important selling point. One thing to be aware of is you have to run those engines to clean them. If you are one of those guys who likes to run around just above idle to save fuel, you are going to have trouble with your Mahindra (or other non-dpf engine). For me dealer proximity was important too since I don't own a vehicle large enough to tow it and therefor would be dependent on the dealer pickup/delivery. The other important issue for me was lifting capacity. Like yours it seems higher than comparable tractors. I carry around totes filled with 250 gallons of water with mine. Actually the 4540 might be a bit better for that since it is heavier. Good luck with your 4540!
+Core 1783 all solid comments!!! I tell my father in law all the time "rev that thing up man!" lol. I'm almost at 150 hours on mine.
Why would you have trouble with a Mahindra if you run the engine just above idle?
They are made to run at higher rpms ...don't know the technical reasons for that. Probably has to do with the MCRD design
@@HamiltonvilleFarm oh yeah, I remember the Messicks guy explained that the Mahindras are basically producing heat all the time as opposed to occasionally as the DPF does, so that system isn't necessarily any better
@@bank80 👍 that sounds right
I just bought my brand new 2665 cab mahindra!! So far so good
That's a nice Tractor 👍
Who makes Mahindra tractors are they a Polish or Russian brand ???

Funny this came across my tread today. We are going to look at these tractors tomorrow. We need 2, we are selling our small horse farm and buying land in Tennessee.
Thanks for watching. If you have a Branson dealer near by check them out. That's what we drive now. Either way, you'll get a good tractor

Yes please do. It's a very important decision. Make sure you are asking tons of questions from the dealer, friends, other tractor owners etc, then buy what you think meets all your needs at the price you can afford. I love my 4540. It's a beast of a tractor. Looking forward to hearing what you end up getting👍

No grease on fittings in video?
Our 5500s weight 5000lbs without weights (roughly 54 engine ponies), the '07, which has a 1200 pound loader is roughly 6200lbs, our '03 has 4 rear wheel weights, which I guestimate to be roughly 120-130 pounds each, and it has 10 37kg wights on the front (roughly 6300 pounds total).
I thought the Mirandra was a good reliable tractor and what you have shown me so far on these demo's is what I thought these tractor's can do. Thanks good reliable tractor

I looked at all the Tractor manufacturers before I decided on my Kubota L 4701, yes it has the DPF as all Kubotas above the 25 horse models are nowadays.But unlike the Deere and some others, the Kubota can and will regene while working and does not have to stop for this process, My reasons for going with the Kubota was reliability and the Fact that Kubotas are 100 percent Kubota, it’s my understanding that everything is made in house except for the tires, but they do even press their own wheels. Does this extend to the hydraulic hoses and fittings? I’m not sure, but this was big to me plus I don’t think plastic belongs on a tractor, these 2 things steered me away from John Deere regrettably because I would love a green tractor. John Deere has a formidable reputation, but they just could not pass the sniff test and they will only regene while parked, The Kubota parked or working will perform this function and that’s big ! But after 4 yrs of ownership I have no legitimate complaints.
