Depends on how used and how many hours. LS will have 5 year warranty and the other may not. Hydro tranny is a huge perk for me.

The Mahindra has 300 hrs and almost 3 yrs left on warranty...about 3k cheaper but ????

While I am not familiar with LS, I am familiar with Mahindra..and a lot of the "other color's" .The 3016 is a more than capable machine.However you failed to mention what task's you are wanting to accomplish with the tractor ,how much acreage? the duties you are expecting of your machine,,driveway maintenance,snow removal duties etc....A few questions come to mind for me. what does the new Ls require to meet the tier 4 requirement's? Does it use a regen mode with Def ? The mahindra is more than likely a tier 3 machine which does not have all of the new regen particulate filter requirement's which equal's less hassle..Just fill it, use it,and go about your business..Ultimately only you can decide what is right for your need's and comfort..go sit on and operate them both,pay attention to the layout and comfort of the control position's for you..No one's opinion can equal that.Ultimately it is your choice for what fit's you best..Oh and the Mahindra has about 4 more Hp and shuttle shift which will equal more hp at the pto..
Good luck
Regard's

well...brush hog about 4 acres a couple times a year...play around moving gravel...maybe bucket up some snow in the winter...that's about it...That is why im having a hard time spending that much on either tractor...I could probably get by with an 8n Ford:confused2:

LOL cvcman..If you are looking for validation for your purchase of a new toy..UHH I mean a much needed tool to accomplish your property maintenance task's ..Then by all mean's you have my blessing..LOL just make sure your decision suits your need's..Do a bunch of research on the models you are interested in, Go play with them, sit on them, operate them, look at all the brand's, check out the dealer/service support in your area..In the end..only you!! have to be happy with your decision..:2cents:
Best of luck on your decision

That LS sounds like the way to go to me.

Try to find a LS J2023 -same tractor as the 2025 just a different dash & seat. I purchased the J2023 w/FEL for $12,300 new.

I test drove a XJ2025 today. Nice little tractor. Wondering if I can run a 6ft finish mower and post hole auger with it? I think it would be perfect for my needs.
