Darn it
Cant stop me from having another beer though!
Gentleman I started this thread because someone on here was bashing me for being pro Mahindra, that person posted on this thread lol
I was waiting for him to say he was pro one brand which clearly he is but didn't.
I honestly don't care who people think is the best brand, I know I wanted a tractor, found multiple I could easily work with and am super happy so far with the tractor I bought.
I'm not Deere for life, I know who is best for cost and lift capacity which is what mattered to me the most and that Mahindra, so I will gladly stand behind Mahindra as a solid tractor to buy, there heavier, much better FEL capacity and a heck of a bargain on price.
I actually don't like the new E series deeres I looked at in the E series 3038, I found them to be cheaply made and FEL was rated at 1100lbs which would work but barely for me, I did not like the meat thermostat style fuel gauge in the hood.
I looked at Kubota, (non grand) found there lift capacity (1050) to be worst in class, tractor ever all was extremely light which was a huge concern to me but actually liked there product, the L3909 I think it was, I liked but lift capacity wasn't enough for my needs.
I looked at new holland 37 workmaster, liked that tractor also, was built nice, had a 66in bucket when most in its class had a 60 but got a quoit back from the dealer 8 days after looking at the tractor and that machine came in at around $6,000 more than the Kubota, lift was better, weight was heavier but no thank you on the price. Boomer being more and closer to the grand series of Kubota and R of JD.
I looked at Case which is the same as new holland and LS, never got my eye on the case but the price was $1000 more than NH so that was a big heck no.
I found Mahindra to be class leading on FEL lift capacity, much heavier machine, most features and the cheapest tractor on the list. I was 110% sold on a 1533 HST or 1538 HST. I really liked there build quality, there warranty was longest by 1-6 years from the others, they had best financing and best rebates, $2000 back on 2 attachments (FEL standard (not included at a attachment)) and 0% for 84 with 0% down.
So in the up to 40hp class that I looked into, Mahindra was best and class leading and was gonna be the tractor I bought.
The ONLY reason I bought a Deere, was because it had a cab and was 50% less than a new tractor which was a poor resale but anyway it was the better investment and was more than big enough for my needs.
I love my tractor, it's comfortable, agile and does (for what I need) an awesome job, but I'm not pro Deere because like I said I don't care at all for the E series I looked at, I personally think the grand in Kubota and the R series JD are way overpriced compared to Mahindra.
So there you have it, I'm the first to actually throw a name out lol. I compared each tractor and company down to where the rubber was made 40hp and under (new tractors), by far Mahindra was best.
That's who I think is best and why (40hp and under new compacts).
