Competitive prices

[wincher]

Have Mahindra prices gone up in the recent past? I only ask this because the local JD dealer stated selling them less than one year ago and when my little boy and I went in to buy a toy I asked why their were not any Mahindra's out front. He told me the were not competitive, and that it was a mutual agreement for them to stop selling the brand. A couple of years ago when I bought my Kubota I was sure I would be getting a better machine for my money if I got the Mahindra I was looking at istead of a JD. IMHO this dealership just didn't want the compentition.

Interesting...

On the Mahindra web sites they post results of a poll of owners who own both John Deere and Mahindra tractors. 82% said they would buy another Mahindra.

Superior Performing Mahindra Tractors - Heavier, sturdier chassis, higher lift capacity and solid components

Sounds like the Mahindra was dropped for other reasons...



"Deere John,

I have run off with another tractor...His name is Mahindra."

Careful with those words, Deere will slap you with a lawsuit for copyright infringement.
Have you seen Mahindra's old ads?

No...can you direct me to one?

Maybe some of the dealers still have the old ad or someone knows where one is in a magazine. They all disappeared when Deere threatened Mahindra over them. Good ad. I wish Mahindra would have kept it.

What was the content... or point that JD took offense toward?

[jwcinpk]

The ad read Deere John, I've found someone new. It pictured a woman on a Mahindra tractor. Deere took offense to the Deere John part.

I saw that ad just recently. Now if I only could remember where!
Hey Joel,...you still gonna post blogs for Mahindra?
