'24/'25 Mahindra 1126 with FEL, belly mower and mid PTO front mount snow blower

Good question. Here's the dealer pricing I got a few weeks back on new 2025s

Mahindra 1120 w/ FEL and 54" MMM, $19847. This is out the door, including 8.75% sales tax.

Kioti CS2220 w/ FEL and 54"MMM, loaded rear tires, $18705 out the door.

TYM T224 w/ FEL, 54"MMM, loaded rears, $19170 out the door.

I ultimately purchased a left over 2024 TYM224 from a closer dealership w/ FEL and 54" MMM w/ 2hrs on it for $16200 OTD, but I have yet to take delivery of it as they found an issue w/ the FEL when they PDI'd it and are still waiting on parts. The lower price might account for no tariffs at the time? Dunno.

TYM is Korean, just like the older eMax series. The leftovers probably dont have the 15% tariff mixed in the pricing.

After a phone call minutes ago, I've decided to nix the idea of the 1126.

Unfortunately, through no fault of their own, an honest straight-shooting dealer lost a sale. They did all the legwork to get answers from Mahindra in Houston about the mid mount mower on this tractor not playing well with a front mount snow blower.

In short, the entire bracketry system for the mid mount mower must be removed before installing the snow blower. It looks like it takes the removal of 12 bolts to drop the bracket. Then in the spring reverse the procedure and readjust the bracketry before putting the mower back on.

Quite different from the TYM built Emax 20s. It requires dropping the deck off and leaving all frame mounted hardware attached before a connecting the snow blower.

Looks like I'll be welding up a makeshift long arm cleco type plier device to line the PTO shaft up and squeeze the lock collar for mower installation on the Emax I currently have.
