Suguestions between these?

1. Mahindra 3510 4wd, 35hp Daedong 3cyl, FEL, 12F/12R, Industiral tires, PTO 540/1000, weight 3800 lbs. $18,000
2. Longagri 360 DTC 4wd, 38 hp Mitsubishi 4cyl, FEL. 12F/12R, Indust tires, 540 PTO, 3100 lbs $18,000
3. 300 DTC Same as the 360 DTC but 30 hp. $16,600

Don't these prices seem a bit high? I am in Virginia.

Used for general cleanup work, 5ft BH, 6ft blade, 6ft box scrapper, 5ft tiller.

Thanks for any input, Dave

I have a Longagri 360DTC with Ag tires. I have to say it is one hard working machine. I have owned mine for 9 months and have put @280 hours on it. No major problems and only a few minor ones, most notable was a broken spring on the clutch pedal. I own and have operated all the implements (except the tiller) you mentioned and it handles them with out problems.

If your price includes the implements, it is a good price, otherwise it might be a little high. I paid $22,000 for the 360 with Ag tires, FEL and Backhoe.

I have no experience with the Mahindra's.

Hope this helps.

My dealor had the spring in stock, he just gave me a new one and I replaced it myself. The weld on my step broke as well, I just used a short piece of chain between two bolts and it holds fine.

Just thought someone may be interested there is a Branson on ebay with only 30 hrs w/loader for $12500, sounds like a pretty good deal.

I post a picture as soon as I can take one.

One other thing you might want to keep an eye on is the screws that hold the cover on the muffler. Mine came loose and it started rattling. I am not sure if they came loose on thier own, or if the mechanic didn't tighten them enough after the 50 hr service.
