    Is it possible to be objective for a moment about Mahindra? Question relating to career change

    All capital letters equals yelling. If you read my original post I said my experience. I did not disagree with other owners experiences.

    Is it possible to be objective for a moment about Mahindra? Question relating to career change

    No need to yell. I simply said I had a good ownership experience with Mahindra. Others may have bad experiences.

    John Deere Jobs

    I think the last part of the article is often over looked by large corporations. People value stability and manufacturing has not offered that. Hire like crazy then layoff the little guy to keep stock prices up. People get tired of that kind of lifestyle. I left manufacturing over 20 years...

    Is it possible to be objective for a moment about Mahindra? Question relating to career change

    My first hand experience having owned a Mahindra for 12 years and as a current John Deere and Kubota owner. The Mahindra dealer had every part I needed on hand during the time I owned a Mahindra. To date my Kubota dealer has had every part I needed in stock. My John Deere dealer has not always...

    Is it possible to be objective for a moment about Mahindra? Question relating to career change

    I do not know anything about Mahindra as a company but I owned a Mahindra 2615 for 12 years. It was a great tractor. I bought the tractor used but the local dealer was always great to deal with on the few parts I needed. This is a very small but well respected dealer. The only reason I bought...

    New L6060

    For loader work I like to have the bush hog unless I am working in close quarters. The bush hog creates more stability because the weight is further than my tiller or box blade.

    Spell Check

    I mainly go to TBN on my iPad. I use the website not the app on my iPad. Since the update, when I hit the period it deletes the last letter before the period and I have go back and put the letter back in.

    New L6060 - a few questions.

    That is cheaper than JD plastic. I messed up the grill and hood on my tractor before I installed mesh on my grill guard. I was able to get the hood and metal grill mesh back to 95%.

    New L6060 - a few questions.

    I have 5460 which is very similar to the 6060. 1. I could not figure out which top link to buy. I wound up ordering from Fit Rite a member on TBN. It has not come yet but from other members have said he builds a quality product. 2. I have not added a quick hitch to my tractor. I had a quick...

    New L6060

    Congratulations. You picked a great tractor. If you plan to operate in rough terrain protect the very soft underbelly and the front grill. I installed a skid plate not long after I got my 5460 but like a dummy I waited to install a grill guard after I had grill and hood damage.

    Final thoughts before purchase in the 3500lb+ cab range?

    You have to have something on the back or at least loaded tires when doing any loader work. It is night and day difference in the feel on my tractor when I use the loader with nothing hang off the back compared to the feel with a rear implement.
