Super, I have looked up some Mahindra parts on their website and the prices are much higher than I expected. In fairness, I haven't requested parts pricing from my dealer, so they may give decent discounts from what the factory lists. As I think about it, this would be a neat new post to start, to see how similar parts prices from different tractor brands compare. Each OEM brand has its own calculations for determining the prices they charge the dealers (I guarantee the OEM profit percentage is well above what the dealer makes). All vehicle manufacturers, including cars, heavy trucks, powersports, tractors and ag equipment, construction equipment, aircraft, etc. use their service parts divisions as a major source of profits -- some more than others. Usually the lower the volume, the higher the cost. The thing to remember is not to be upset with your dealer when he quotes an unreasonable price for a part -- blame the manufacturer's greedy paws.
