Comparison Mahindra Tractors, Reliable?

[Farmer BlueBrown]

I'm in the market for a 50-100 hp tractor/loader, used or new, but I don't want to break the bank with a big 3 new tractor. I am curious about reliability/company stability issues with a mahindra. Any feedback would be helpful.

They seem to be the 'up and coming brand'. Lots of Mahindra followers on here.

Either a 7520 or 8560 will fill the bill. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Very good machines, only downfall in my opinion is that they only have 12 gears, would be nice to have a 16 speed power shuttle. :drool:

I have a 2008 Mahindra 5525 (54 hp engine, 45 hp pto, 2WD, power steering). No problems so far.

Thanks Don87, MtnView and Flusher.

No negatives so far, that is promising. But yes, more gears are better, but 12 is manageable.

Own a Bota which plan on keeping but next tractor purchase will give India RED very hard look !

BTW : Brian if he buys one don't forget to teach him the tapping on the dash trick.

Nov 08' 5530 4wd Turbo - no issues. See owner reviews of these or any other HP on Mahindra web site.

Ask the owners of the first models of the Kubota M7040 about dash problems.

I have the 5010HST Cab just under your 50HP but so far she is doing everything I ask of her. I had one minor problem and the dealer had it fixed in a couple of hours and back to me the same day. :thumbsup:
