The biggest selling point for me on the mahindra was no dpf. I also like the dealer. My 3650 pst has 350 hours on it now and still no issues.

I’ve heard that the Macks are pretty good but we don’t have any. Mostly Kenworths and freightliners. Mine is a t800 with a 500 Cummins and goes pretty good.

yes I am aware. I drive a 13 everyday as well.

As an experienced truck driver I can tell you that automatic trucks have come a long way but they still have a long way to come. The company I work for has a pretty even mixture. I’ve had times driving automatics that I was so frustrated I wanted to drive it off a bridge.

would be good if you actually used a gear shift to compare to. I've cut down trees and been in this same position and found that it is much faster and easier to just cut the tree off and take it out in two pieces.

Agreed, a dozer is a completely different animal and should not have even been brought into this conversation

That looks like a very nice dozer. I would love to have that but unfortunately can’t afford one.

I have used many hst tractors and gear tractors. For what I do a hst does not perform as well as a gear shift. I’m not saying that they can’t do anything I’m just saying that for me a gear shift works better.

A lot of the work I do is heavy pushing and pulling and a hst just doesn’t cut it. It all depends on what you are doing with your tractor

I think you might want to consider a dump insert. I know they can’t haul as much as a trailer but they are much cheaper and may allow you to get the proper trailer to haul the tractor. You also might be able to find a used trailer for a much more affordable price

Yes. I believe it is up to 75hp that they don’t have it but I could be wrong. mCRD Technology | Mahindra Agriculture North America Check out this page

I know the Kioti backhoes have the option for a hydraulic thumb so I would assume that ls does too. That is something I would not go without. K5lwg mentioned used implements and I agree. The only new implement I own is a bushhog, everything else is at least 10 years old and generally works...

I would sell it and either buy a used pre emissions tractor or consider a new Mahindra because they don’t have dpf

As far as implements go woods may be more money but it is worth it. That tractor would handle a 72in box blade just fine.

I love mine and use it all the time
