Tractor
Mahindra 3215 4WD
Been a long time since I have been on TractorByNet!! My 2006 Mahindra 3215 4WD has been a great little tractor but it is time to upgrade to a cabbed tractor. Looking at an LS MT468C, MT357C, or a TYM T654C. I have also looked at a Kioti DK6020SEHCB which may still be in the running, but it is more expensive than a larger LS. Does anyone have any experiences with any of these models? I will be baling hay with a small square baler, running a sickle mower (hopefully a drum or disc mower in the next couple of months), moving a few round bales, and some FEL work on 20 acres. The Mahindra was able to handle most of this work for a number of years, but it is time to replace the clutch and I don't want to invest a lot of money into it.

My buddy has an LS and loves it not sure the model sorry, I did just see they were offering a free loader with most tractor purchases.

Free loader? A loader wasn't even an "option" when I priced. Sounds like a gimmick

No one can recommend a tractor for your particular taste.

Maybe time to get seat time in various tractor brands to see which one feels and operates the best for you.

I think the TYM T654 is a pretty sweet machine with a Deutz engine in it with passive regen for a Tier 4 system that appears to work REALLY well. And how close are dealers to you, if that is important to you?

The free loader offer from LS has been going on for a
long time

I am a very happy LS owner, currently a little over 300 trouble free hours.
About a month ago I saw my first TYM tractor at a farm show and was pretty impressed, if I was buying a new tractor TYM would definitely be a possibility. I believe there hydraulic system is as good or better than anything else on the market.
