Buying Advice I pulled the trigger!

You'll like that series! Those tractors are beasts. Just an FYI, i have a friend that owns a Mahindra dealership and he says the 6075 and the 6065 tractors are identical other than computer tune. So after warranty expires if you decide you need more HP, they can reflash the computer and get a little more out of them.

That’s awesome news! I remember the dealer telling me there wasn’t a huge difference in the two. Thanks for the heads up!!!!

@MUDONTHETIRES and @buck12, thank you for sharing your experiences. We have a Mahindra dealer in town 4-5 miles from the property. His rep is stellar in the community. So, we are thinking that when/if/shoud we need another machine, we would strongly look to the Mahindra products. We have the Massey at 33HP.. but we are thinking a 50-60hp machine might be better suited for the land we have and plans we are evolving. I hope to see more posts about these tractors. It helps in decision making. I don't expect us to make a decision for more than a year. We are good for this year. But if a great deal showed up at our gate? We might take advantage of it.

Thanks for the reply! My history on Mahindra’s show up on this forum and has for years. This time won’t be any different. I tell it like it is, good or bad. I’ll be updating often and thanks for the compliment on the grapple. I may have went a tad too small but time will tell and I think it’ll be fine as long as I don’t abuse it. Thanks again!

You know, it doesn稚 take much searching to find posts like 溺y uncle bought one of them green ones and it stayed in the shop. I値l never buy one of them. Or.....乃hose orange tractors just ain稚 the same, look at Google reviews and stay away! Or.....乃hose blue ones have too much plastic, I壇 tear it up in a week! I guess my point is that every company makes a few æ¾±ad ones and you should take it with a grain of salt. Besides, if there were the perfect tractor, wouldn稚 someone know about it by now? I致e been in the automobile business over thirty years and by far the comment I mostly hear is çš„ had a friend who owned one of those cars and had nothing but problems. I値l never get one of those. Then I always ask é›»o you know about the other million that were made? Did those have the same problems? I致e had Mahindraç—´ over twenty years with great success and very minor issues. Minor as in a cracked fuel line for under $20.00. I知 happy with my purchase and wanted to share it with you folks. Hopefully no one takes offense to this post, my goal was to let everyone know that most of us know problems happen when you include thousand of moving parts, thatç—´ why mechanics are always employed. However, if the seat time is longer than the down time then youæ±*e probably okay!

I'm not saying they are unreliable, but if you need engine parts, like a head or pistons or connecting rods or crankshaft, the dealers would have to sell you a long block, as parts are not available..

I didn't mean to imply that anyone was stating they're unreliable so I apologize if it came across that way. My little rant was to confirm that every piece of machinery once in a while has it's faults, regardless of make. I didn't know that about Mahindra so thank you for the info and I'll be confirming that with my dealer tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll never need engine parts for some time as I don't put a ton of hours on them. With that said and as I've stated in earlier posts, I've had great luck with them after some really long hard work. Hopefully I got a good one and all will be well! Thanks for your input and info!

Thanks for your input! I just talked with my Mahindra dealer and he said depending on if parts are in stock, age of tractor, type of tractor, etc.... that they'll piece an engine together. If they decide on putting in a block, it's because the tractor is probably older and Mahindra stops making parts after a while. Makes sense. He also stated that his dealership does not like to rebuild engines which sounds like the auto dealership I work for. They always want the customer to go with a new crated motor. So there's that. Coobie, thanks again!!!

I'm about thisssss close to pulling the trigger on a 6065. How has it been for you?? It's it entirely overkill for me, but the price is great and I certainly won't need to upgrade for a while, if ever. I had such buyer remorse with my 3025E, I figured go big or go home
Also, how is it on fuel?

Purchased a new Mahindra 6065 4WD! Seems to be beefy and sturdy like my other tractor. Ready to put it through the test!View attachment 685180View attachment 685181View attachment 685182

nice! good luck and let us know how it goes, I keep looking at the 6000 but the 5100 is overkill for me. when i bought mine i discussed it with my wife at every step and still when it came in she looked at it and said I thought you were getting one of those (pointing at a 1600) lol. not that there is anything wrong with the 1600 series.

Congrats on your new tractor!!! Mahindra makes a solid tractor that serve you well.

Nice looking beast! I foresee many Hahahappy days ahead.
Just a word on buying too large of a machine for you tractor shoppers out there - I did it and it took me 15 yrs to admit it and do something about it...All that time it was too big, too loud, too heavy. When it left and I turned and mounted my little MX5200 I was like goldylocks in the just right bed. Phew.
