Mahindra must be taking cosmetic design cues from John Deere. They both have the chrome blemish on the front of the hood! CHEESY

Does anyone have a idea what these machines cost? I understand there are a lot of factors involved, but just looking for a general idea. I finally got the wife to allow me to get a SCUT, and really have been leaning words the Deere 1026, but might have to take a look at the Max 22 or even the 25. Just looking for mower and loader. All that I have read, the Max is a heavier machine, will that drive the cost up? Just wondering and thanks for the help!!

IME they priced out almost the same. (1026 to Max25)

it is a throwback to row crop tractors. it is called a sight or pointer. you line it up with something in the distance so you can drive a straight line.

That makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.

The Max looks like a nice tractor! Glad they replaced the stupidest loader control valve I've ever seen...

If they screwed up the control valve, what else did they screw up?

Probably the price. I'd imagine it is too low for the quality and integrity of a Mitsubishi built tractor.

That's funny, because I thought the price was a little high.

Perhaps they are great tractors, but only time will tell. I prefer to wait until people start buying them and report about their experiences, good or bad, before I decide for myself. And being built by Mitsubishi doesn't mean much to me, because many Mitsubishi-built tractors are impossible to get parts for.
