Mahindra 3016 HST with ML115 SKC FEL
Well, after months of searching, comparing and shopping, I finally pulled the trigger on a new 3016HST with FEL, 5ft cutter and 5ft box blade. Delivery was on Saturday. We have been so dry this summer but as luck would have it, Southeast Texas had it's fair share of rain this week including about 3-1/2 inches just 10 mins after the tractor was delivered. As it was, I still managed to get about 3 hours of seat time this weekend which is good since I won't be able to use it for another 2-3 weeks due to work. Thanks to all on TBN for all of their posts and knowledge which greatly helped in my decision.

This is my first tractor (have worked on my FIL's many times over the last several years) and it will be used mostly on my deer lease and at the FIL's.

Good luck with it! I've enjoyed getting a lot done with my 3215.

With a great tractor like the 3016 it would be hard to be humble in Humble.

Thanks to all for the nice comments and support. Since I won't be able to get any seat time the next 2 weeks, I'm putting together some items for my tool box along with some extra parts. From what time I spent on it this weekend, a canopy may be in the near future. Any recommendations?

David, I don't see how you can find a better made, lower priced canopy than this selection from Bare Co BARE-Co Standard Canopy
