Hi all- just joined- been reading for awhile and appreciate all the discussions!!
Here is my deal- I have decided to trade my trusty JD 4700 tractor of 12 years for a cab model. I have narrowed it down to either a used
Kubota 7040 or a new Mahindra 6110. Here is the breakdown:
Kubota 7040
2006 4000 hours (mostly pulling a feed mixer, one owner) loader- 4WD- mechanical shuttle- 2 rear SCVs. It shows some wear but seems to be in good shape overall-
NO warranty
Mahindra 6110- 2012 - 60 HP- exact same features but brand new- 2 year tractor/5 year drivetrain warranty
DEALERS
- Mahindra dealer is 20 mins away but has ONE mechanic. GREAT people but if they fold, the nearest dealer wil be over an hour away
- Kubota- 3 established dealers within 35 mins with multiple mechanics- 2 more within an hour
BTW- I keep up a 12 acre hobby horse place so do a little bit of everything. My JD 4700 was purchased in 2001 and has only 1023 hours on it.
Thanks in advance for the feedback- I am struggling- both prices are comparable- I would like this purchase to possibly be my last for a LONG time!
