Heywood.... Buying on price is false and I am paying for even factoring it in with Mahindra.
I will take a slam at them. I just found out this morning that our tractor is down again. My other half didn't tell me due to her knowing I would go ballistic. It is down with the same problem that we asked the dealer with the $2k bill to find and fix last time(a month or so ago). She called the three closest dealers and the earliest we could get it even looked at was next week. It went to our shop so we can fix it internally. This won't be in a warranty even though we have "warranty" on the tractor because Mahindra won't cover a **** thing. I have also found out the resell on the tractor sucks. It is 1/2 of a deere that is the same age. I feel so bad for convincing my other half that we should buy Mahindra over the new holland or deere last year.
Some people may say I am just being loud and vocal, but I haven't even started screaming about this thing yet. There are too many dealers on this board that defend these tractors and other dealers that more people should stand up and say something.
