Mahindra vs Kioti

[ernieatv]

I'm looking at buying a 35 or 40 hp with a loader and cab. Mahindra have the 2638 with 37.4 hp and Kioti have a dk 4210 se which is 39.6 hp and looks better with more equipment. I'm wondering if anyone out there knows which one would be the best to buy? I do landscaping in the summer and snow removal in the winter.

“Looks better with more equipment” seems you have answered your own question!

For the tractor itself, to compare between the 2 tractors, 2638 mahindra or a kioti dk4210 se both with loader, which one would be better to do landscaping ?

Don't look at just the tractor. Look carefully at the dealer - can he provide support? WILL he provide support? How long has he been in business? What's his reputation? You run a business with your tractor - you need to deal with a vendor who runs his business like a business, too. Both brands have good reputations.

I also own a lawn care and landscaping business. Make sure your fel can pick up a pallet of sod, etc. I just bought a mf2604h. I知 planning to get more into bush hogging, driveway repair, etc during the winter. That痴 why I bought a little bigger tractor. Good luck on your purchase

Excellent advice! I was careful when I bought my tractor over 20 years ago, to pick a good dealer, with a good rep, that was in it for the long haul.

You're 100% right re: the dealer, didn't really think of that, thnx

Have you spent any time operating each of them? I like the ergonomics of the Kioti better than the Mahindra so that is what I got.

If you like the dealer more than the tractor you should move on.
I cant remember the last time I needed a specific dealer for something after it was out of warantee.
Dont know much about parts for a Mahindra. Kioti has a couple large online dealers and a major North American headquarters in Wendell, NC .
Both manufactures Mahindra and Kioti will be around for the long haul. In the end..... get the tractor you want.
