- Kubota MX 5100 Gear, L844 FEL, Land Pride 72' cutter, Bad Boy CZT 50
Narrowed down to either a slightly used kubota mx5100 or a new mahindra 5530. Both have FELs and gears. I really liked the 5530 when I test drove it and the lay out of its controls. I also like the mx5100 and I can get that 4000$ cheaper. Two different dealers both being about the same distance apart, however the kubota delearship is much larger and equipment is its bread and butter. The mahindra delearship has some very nice and personable owners but are one a smaller scale when it comes to tractors. I am also obviously wanting a tractor I can get the most out of for the long haul. Also the kubota will come with land pride implements where the mahindra will come with howse. Will be for personal use and I would say light to medium work on average however up front I would like to do some land/lot clearing to build a house. The biggest trees are about 8 year old improved loblollys. That being said is that to much work for either tractor and would that cause damage to the fel?
