Finally, photos of my new Mahindra 2415!

[bill6]

Recently I traded in my 3215 for the 2415. The guys down on the Mahindra section of this site, are sometimes teasing me because I enjoy keeping the tractors clean. Check these out, also included are my 2006 Ranger, and 2005 Honda Insight. (my wife says I spend WAY too much time out in the garage cleaning and polishing) Sometimes I hesitate to use the tractor, for fear of getting it dirty.........

Bill6, what can I say? I'm pretty new to this forum but I learned very quickly about the "Bill6 Standard"! After seeing it for myself, I'm sure I want to adapt your policy! Mighty fine tractor!

Bill6, Good looking machine! Definitly the shiniest tractor I've ever seen. Keep us informed on it's performance!

Oh by the way Bill6, you should update your signature.
Just call me eagle eyes!

Bill6:

If you need more vehicles to keep clean; you are than welcome to come to Colorado and make my Honda Accord, wife's Honda CRV, my F-250, my 4200, my L130, and the assorted implements bright and shiny.

I admire people who have the determination to keep their vehicles looking that nice; however I'm not one of them.

It looks like you're towing it with the pickup without a trailer. That's how my uncle use to do it.

Nice looking tractor. Do you find the exhaust coming out the hood panel to be a problem?

 

[Beavis]

Why did you trade for a smaller tractor? Just curious.

 

[Etch]

heck, if my tractor was that small I'd probably keep it clean too.. Ok, maybe not. I can't even keep my cars that clean..lol

Hi btdt and beavis; exhaust coming out the side panel is not a problem, except for one thing: last saturday I was pulling a box-blade w/scarifiers on dry dusty ground. The exhaust is slightly pointed down, and the air blast was contacting the ground, making some dust! This contributed to getting the whole machine dusty, so every hour I stopped and cleaned the tractor and air filter with compressed air.

I downsized so I could trailer it easier, using my Ford Ranger. With FEL's, the Mahindra 3215 weighs 3380 lbs and this new tractor weighs 2445, so it's a good bit lighter. Also, the majority of my lot improvement is completed, so I will mostly need a tractor for mowing, moving gravel, raking, and bush hogging for friends and neighbors.
