Unfortunately the dealers that need to learn this lesson aren't on TBN. Seems easy enough to give a quote.

Unfortunately the dealers that need to learn this lesson aren't on TBN. Seems easy enough to give a quote.
Many car dealers are invariably the same way. When I bought my truck, one of only three dealers who responded to my email inquiries got the sale.
What many dealerships often fail to realize is that people may be hundreds of miles away from the dealership, as was the case with the dealer I bought my truck from, and driving that far to visit a dealership when there is no guarantee of a sale is not only impractical but would also be downright stupid, especially with todays ever increasing fuel costs.
The same can be said for dealerships who insist that you call them, where some people don't want to waste their cell air time while the dealer tries to "sell" them, as was the case when I emailed a tractor dealership recently to ask them if they had anything I might be interested in. Their initial response was less than helpful, asking pointless questions after I was pretty specific about my desires, and their second response was downright hostile after I politely informed them that I'd rather wait and call when they had something I was interested seeing. Afterwards, I informed them that their bad attitude had blew any chance they had of ever selling me anything.
In short, many dealerships need to wake up and realize that this is 2012, not 1982.

Not sure where in CT you are. We are in Bethany, CT. and have quite a few on order and will have them in stock as soon as Mahindra ships them. Feel free to stop in and take a look when we get them.

Yes the mower can be on with the loader and backhoe. If you want to take the ride to CT we will have them soon, I hope!

Scott, forgot you guys are on here from time to time. Yes, I think you're considered my local dealer. I did shop you guys years back when I made my first tractor purchase. At the time the smallest Mahindra's were a little too big for my 2 acre lot.

The Max 28XL is a powerful sub-compact. If you park a Max 28XL next to a 2216 you will notice that the 28 is the same size as the 22. In my opinion horsepower is not what defines sub-compact, it is size of the machine.

I couldn't help but notice that the hydraulic hoses for the loader are routed outside the frame, something that was mentioned previously.
Any idea what the 28's weigh? They look rather light, which could be problematic, especially when doing loader work.
