So here's a quick update...
I talked to what seemed like a very knowledgable individual at a mahindra dealership over the phone today. He recommended I get an emax22 with fel and mmm. Said he doesn't think the extra cost is worth gaining 3hp (to move up to the eMax 25). Said fel had lots of uses and could pretty easily handle the drive that I will have (much the same as the great advice I got on tbn). And if I'm going to get an fel get one now or they charge ridiculous freight to ship one on it's own.
He quoted me a price for a new mahindra emax22 48"fel and 60" mmm for $15,500. That seems pretty reasonable for that much machine and new plus I really liked this guys knowledge base you can tell he not only sells tractora he uses them. The dealership is 40 miles away so not wild about that but he said if needed he could come get tractor and bring it back would charge me about $165 to do that.
Also did some online comparisons between mahindra kubota and jd and mahindra seems like a pretty good deal.
If anyone has some thoughts on this I would love to hear them. Thanks as always
I just looked over the Mahindra's specs and website, looks like a nice machine. I think all the SCUT's in this category are pretty close, just comes down to price and personal fit.
Too bad you're not closer, I would let you check out the new Yanmar SC2400 loader/mmm I'm selling....for a bit less out the door. Mahindra's got a bit more lifting capacity, but Yanmar's got the shift on the fly transmission....they both have the 5 year warranty.
The MMM option is around $2500, I have one on mine, but have never used it.....:ashamed::laughing: As others have said, it's easier to have a dedicated mower.
Good luck shopping!
