Max25 weight

[KB1JIM]

I'm shopping for a trailer for my 2012 Max25 and I need to know the gross weight with FEL and BH attached. I'll be towing with a Tacoma V6 with tow package. Any recommendations on a trailer would also be appreciated.

According to the spec sheet on the Mahindra site not that much but it's so little I wouldn't trust the info but that's nothing new with Mahindra documentation either. A little over 500 lbs for the tractor and a little over 700 lbs for the hoe but that just don't sound right to me.

Go to TractorData.com - information on all makes and models of tractors they have the specs on thousands of tractors!

Thanks! I've since received two answers from Mahindra. 2750 and 3000 lbs. Both sound a bit light. I'll just go with 3500 to be safe.

I just knew their spec sheet was kaka at 500 lbs. I guess they don't really read any of their documentation before they put it out there. At least the quality is consistent with their operators and service manuals. Those are both kaka too. Mahindra would do well to save some of the advertising dollars and put it into service documentation and after sales support. They'd get more than a better return from word of mouth advertizing from a happier customer base.

Agreed.

Cool callsign. Although it would have matched my name a bit better..

That eMax brochure says the loader is 507. The last page says the eMax25 is 1540lbs which I assume is without the loader or BH. The Max25 from 2012 according to TractorData is 1693 + FEL + BH. Figure 600 and 750 for those and the 3000lbs sounds correct.

So here is the math that I did while back for loading my trailer with fully loaded Max25 tractor and pulling with a V8 Dakota but I never towed it with the Dakota, but rather a 3/4 ton Ram. I have a Big Tex Trailer CH60 trailer. Works great for it! My tires are loaded with RimGuard and that is calculated in. I did run it over the scales for grins, and it came out pretty close as I recall.

Turf tires
Fronts: 20x8-10 Gallons 4.0 Weight 42.8
Rears: 29x12.5-15 Gallons 14.0 Weight 149.8

Tractor 1693
Tire Ballast 384
Loader 545
Backhoe 725 (w/o bucket)
60” mower 411
Total 3758

Big Tex 60CH-16 GVWR 6000# Weight 1,670
02 Dakota curb weight=4599+ (3758+1670=5428)10,027 gross (GCWR)
05 Dodge curb weight= 6216+ (3758+1670=5428) 11644 Gross (GCWR)

Hope this helps.
