Hello All,
I'm new here to TBN and thought I would make my introduction in the Mahindra forum since this is where I have lived for the past few months researching the Mahindra tractors. I really think this website is an awesome place to come and learn. Can't contribute much knowledge; yet anyways.
After much research, yesterday I pulled the trigger on a 2008 7520 4WD w/ Loader with 200hrs. Got it for $19k from an individual. After looking at it, I think it is pretty much in new shape. I'll take delivery on Friday. Feel free to tell me how I did... Wont' hurt my feelings. Picture attached.
This is my first tractor to own, I've only rented a couple of tractors previously. I know it's a beast so I'll have to be especially careful until I get used to it. I don't have any attachments yet, but will be looking to get a toothbar, boxblade, and hd cutter in the near future and down the road hopefully a brush/root grapple and backhoe. Some mods I would like to do are TnT, Front Grille, Belly Pan, and loaded tires. Maybe even a cage and brown tree cutter, we'll see how things go. The way I see it is I have the platform decided on (the tractor), now I just need to figure out which things to add to it and the best way to use and take care of them.
I've got a little over a 1/4 mile driveway that I need to maintain and quite a bit of brush that I want to clean up on my property. I've got a good size creek that runs through my property as well as a two acre pond that I would like to make "pretty". It is a 100 acre rolling terrain property that we've been living on for about two years now. The goal is to cleanup and maintain a portion of my property without destroying my tractor. I would also like to make some trails throughout where it is easier to explore on the ATVs. I'm hoping if I take my time and am careful I can achieve this goal.
I'm sure I'll have questions about attachments and other things as I get further along, but just wanted to say hello and thank you for such an awesome website and community.
