I will be mowing about 3 acres with a finishing mower, bush hogging occasionally but nothing that has not been mowed before. Also tilling a 30 x 80 garden in the spring and fall with a Yanmar 5ft. gear driven tiller. I will also work up about 2 acres in food plots. Mostly level ground but some with a slight slope.

Bought mine for two acres of brush hogging and 600 yards of private road to maintain in summer/winter. We get 4 feet of snow that will need to be removed. I have no dought it will handle it fine (building starts as soon as the snow comes off). My .02

I don't see any reason it wouldn't easily do your work.

It would suite you just perfectly. Of all of Mahindra's compact line up, the 2615 is my favorite. It's kind of like an old school workhorse. Just a personal preference, but I just can't stomach all of the plastic on the others.

I basically do all the things you mentioned with my 2015. (except I have a 4 foot tiller) You will have no problem at all.

2415 or bigger will do you fine.

At my local Mahindra dealer I looked at the 2515HST first. Then I moved on to the next frame size (41 series??) After talking to buddies of mine & worring about not having a big enough tractor I decided on the larger size 40HP one OR no smaller than the 3215 HST in the next frame size down.
I went to the bank to look at refinancing some things & getting a tractor. I couldn't do it. Debt ratio too scarry for me. Prayed about it. Next day found a 2006 2615HST in local swap & sell guide for $12500. Did some research on here on the 2615HST with a snowblower & some other things. prayed about it,....long story short I bought it & it has been a great tractor for me.
I have a 6.5 Acre lot that is a wooded ridge. I have 1000' all up hill driveway that I will be snowblowing.

I have about 10 acres to maintain, some food plots, big garden, and mowing. My 2615 seems to be the right size for me. Very happy with the tractor so far--I have a 72 inch finish mower and 5 foot tiller to play with.
