Thanks for the replies, yes Mountain Farm has done me right, bought my zero turn lawn mower from them too. Ive lurked on this website for years but rarely post. I moved to TN from WI. three years ago, I still have my old tractors there but will get them here when my land there sells. OK fella's thanks for the thumbs up. I did have reservations about buying Mahindra again as I had many, many problems with my 3510, but partly because I was asking too much of it. Anyhow I don't have to worry about that again.
I bought the big one!!

Where are you at in TN? I live in cookeville and bought a 2555 from mountain farm as well. I got quotes from everybody around and ended up buying a machine from Brian. What I didn't realize until after I had signed the paperwork was that he sent me a shear pin cutter instead of slip clutch. I called him and he said "Sorry" with no offer of trying to make it right. Also they sent me a tractor that was on empty - had to fill up before I did anything. Other than that it was a fine experience.

Awesome purchase.
Now............go get it dirty.
I was looking at the photo and trying to think why it looked small.:confused3: I kept thinking my 6520 looks bigger. Of course I have the backhoe on it, but then I realized............................lock that ROPS up and get a canopy. Then it will look like a real working tractor. Please don't say it won't fit in the garage with the rops up.
hugs,. Brandi

Hey Brandi,
Well yes, you are right and no. I built two building joined together as one last year. One is 32 x 50 and the other 40 x 50. Smaller has two doors, one, 16 x 8, second 10 x 8. Larger building (where tractor is kept at the moment), has 10 x 12 door. Before building I made sure that the tractor would go in the smaller building with the ROPS down. That's the only reason that I don't have a canopy on it at the moment. I do go in and out with the tractor right now, but I planned and envision the tractor living in the larger building.

I'll buy that answer. Right after my backhoe, I love my aluminum insulated canopy best.
Great place to add lights, thermometer and a radio. I haven't got the radio yet.hugs, Brandi

Awesome tractor! Keep us informed if you have any issues with it too. It is hard to judge the size without someone standing next to it. When I told friends I was buying a farm tractor, I think they all thought it was one sitting in front of Lowe's of HD. They look as the photo and didn't say much. Then I took a photo with me standing next to it... my older brother was the first to comment... He said "HOLY %@^&!" Ha!!!!!
I'd love to have one that big... maybe next time. My property doesn't have anything big to move or dig. It is covered with small honey mesquite and the three big trees are all staying. I'll find an excuse later to upgrade though.... "Honey, this one has heart but no muscle so I can't do that project for ya. We'll have to get something bigger.... as mush as I'd hate to see this tractor go." LOL!

I bought 40 acres here in TN, and that keeps me busy keeping up with everything that needs to be done. I cleared some pasture land last year and want to clean up some of my woods as time permits. Could I have gotten by with something smaller, sure, but, I already went down that road years back with my first Mahindra. I looked at all the different models but liked the platform on the MPower models. Would like to have bought a cab, but couldn't justify spending 10k more. I don't make a living on it or I would. Its really just a big toy!

Good photo. Ya might consider adding bracing and expanded metal to your grill guard.
It has really protected my grill and headlights when I get a little careless at the end of a long day.hugs, brandi
