More Red in the neighborhood.
Now I have the tiny red one.
Farmer down the road had his new 5010 Gear Cab ML156 and 595 loader parked in his driveway, so I stopped by Dan's to check it out.
His cousin, 3 houses down bought a 410 open station about a mouth ago and put it to work in the woodlot.
For a real review see 2014 Mahindra 5010 Cab Gear Review
So he had to show it to me.
I have an L39, The 5010's cab made me red with envy.
Mahindra does a nice CAB on the 3 tractors that Iv'e sat in.
The M156 has near 200 LBS at the pins more lift capacity than the L39, and has some large hydraulic cylinders.
The TL1000 loader on an L39 is a bit more rugged being a non removable type.
The hydraulics are way smoother and finer than my Max28, but the 5010 has neither the hydraulic flow capacity, pressure, speed, nor fine multi function control of the L39s´ TL1000.
No self leveling on the ML156 is available.
But that's not fair comparing a commercial set-up to an Ag., especially considering about $8,000 more in cost for ORANGE.
The hoe is well made and Dan said it was nice and smooth, I did not try it. The 595 is almost as big as my 10' hoe on the L39.
The engine is nice and shifts good for a gear. 3 x 3.
Motor is quiet, with the needed 10 more HP than the L39.
With the 5010's larger tires loaded, it weighs the same as my tiny tired L39 with my wheel weights.
Did I say the cab is sweet!
TYM/Mahindra builds a nice tractor.

I've got 'real farmer' friends over at Pyengana [sheep/cattle meat graziers] who run nothing but
