Tractor
Mahindra 7060 4WD
Hello fellow TBN'ers!

Today I closed a deal on a 7060 4WD Mahindra w/ loader. It sure is a long way from my first tractor (Ford Jubilee) :)

I bought from Hartley Tractor in S.C but picked up closer to my home in Chattanooga. Jason from Hartley tractor was great the whole way through the process. (I came as a referred customer from my father-n-law, who also had great things to say about Hartley tractor).

I'll post a few pictures tomorrow. The 7060 is a sweet tractor. It's "fancy" as tractors go (compared to the tractors of the past).

BTW, I got 0% 60 mo financing from mahindra for an out the door price (dealer fees, insurance & tractor) of roughly $31,000.

Congratulations, I'm sure you will love it. What will you primarily use it for?

Eventually, hay work. In the meantime, just work around the farm and hopefully a little side work to supplement my teaching income. She's pretty stout and heavy.

Congratulations Thallman.:thumbsup: Your 7060 is the new Tier IV version of my 6520, which is the Big RED Beast.:D Mine is a 2007 model.
Can't wait for the photos. Did you get a grill guard and skid steer attach option, along with a canopy?
hugs, Brandi

Congrats on your new addition to your family. Mine is a 2008 Mahindra 5525.

I dropped by my dealer's place today (Dave's Tractor in Red Bluff, CA). Business must be good--he had 5 new Mahindras loaded onto 3 gooseneck trailers for delivery.

The grille guarde came with mine -- I thought it was sold seperately, but it came standard on mine. I bought the largest 48"/4000lb fork and hay spear combo from skidsteerexpress.com. I have delt with them before and they have strong products at great prices. The skid steer attachment will arrive in town this Monday--I'll post pictures of it then.

I haven't bought a canopy yet. I'm clearing a lot of woods now and I would just end up messing it up real bad. When I switch to doing more hay field work I'll put one on.

I also would love the HD grapple from skidsteerexpress.com It's about $1,300. That isn't too bad of a price but I'll wait for a while on that one.

Thanks for all the comments. Here are some pictures.

It looks odd seeing "my" tractor without a canopy and backhoe on it.:laughing: Photos show my stock grill guard and the modifications I did to it to keep my grill nice and shiny. Before I got it modified, I had to remove the grill, put it over a towel in a bowl shaped sand hole in the ground and bump out the dent I got in it.:eek: Opps.:ashamed: A little paint and it was good as new.:cool:
hugs, Brandi
