- 1984 Kubota B7200D (Sold 2015,) 2005 L39 Kubota, 2006 RTV 900 1997 Komatsu PC75UU2E w/ Thumb & Blade, 2013 Mahindra Max28XL Shuttle
Rust an a new mod.
The Paint, Plastic, and Plating on a Mahindra will never be mistaken for a Kubota.
It does have a decent floor mat.
The nuts, bolts, fittings, hardware, etc in general on my 32 year old Kubota was almost new looking,
The paint faded some, but was stickng to the metal fine after many years.
32 years ago, they had plastic, and for the most part the Kubota plastic stood up also.
I have no expectations my Max28 will age well.
Take a look at the photos.
The max is stored in a 3 sided lean to, out of the rain and sun for the most part.
I repainted the rusty loader valve cover, and clear coated the fittings. That should slow the corrosion down a little.
Note the Korean Loader control Valve. Fine control is not its strong point.
I would not be complaining as much if I hated this tractor. It is a good machine, just with a lot of cost cutting.
I wonder how long the mirror is going to last in the woods?
