Hey everyone thanks for your replies and advice.
I looked at tractors today. I had a great experience at a Mahindra/Kioti dealership. It is down to a Kioti 3520SE Cab, 4020 SE, or a Mahindra 2638 Cab.
The pricing is as follows:
$36,500 0% APR or $34,800 if buying outright
$38,500 0% APR or $36,500 if buying outright
$39,900 2.99% APR or $38,400 if buying outright
Prices don't include tax.
Mahindra pros-
Brand loyalty
Silly but I like the color better
No emissions regen bs
SUBFRAME FROM LOADER TO REAR AXLE
Nice seat
Stereo with Bluetooth hands free
Left-right brake control
Mahindra cons-
Lousy placement of three point hitch lever
NO REAR HYDRO OUTPUTS
Hydro lines snd fittings hang down exposed under the floor on the right side of the cab
No built in third function switches on FEL controller
Lousy placement of Triangle on back of tractor (in the middle of the rear window)
No rear window defroster (no electric type)
$3,000 more than Kioti
High APR (if doing payments)
I am leaning towards the Kioti option.
For a price difference of around $2000 more I think I should go with the 40HP for more power to run a 72" snow blower.
The biggest hang up I am having is the head of the service department was telling me how much stronger the FEL mounting was on the M. than the K. Basically there are rugged tubes running from the FEL mount all the way to the back of the tractor.
