Jinma to Mahindra

[jonrjen]

Been very pleased with my little 204 Jinma. But I came across a deal and just have to give it a try. A 35 HP, two year old Mahindra 2WD. It came with a 5' King Kutter deck, 5' tandem disc, 5' Mohawk box blade, rear boom pole, post hole digger and a 18' pipe rail trailer for $7500. Tractor only has 100 hours on the meter.
Downside is that the Mahindra board doesn't seem to have the forum following that you all offer here on the Chinese tractor side of this site.
Wish me luck. Figure before long I will have either a Mahindra or a Jinma to sell.
Here is a link to what the tractor looks like.

Good luck to ya Jon!! Hope ya don't get stuck in 2WD.

Thanks for the thought Bill, but should that happen I will still have the Jinma and my two cab 4x4 tractors and a chain if needed. Still I must admitt, I never thought I would buy another 2wd tractor. The current count 3 with 4x4 and 2 with 2wd. I sold the Zetor 4x4 to a gentleman in East Texas, and he loves it.

jonrjen, you have no idea how much I wanted that Zetor! I checked that auction at least 3 times a day. I even did a mapquest on it, but figured it woulda cost me about $600-800 in gas to come and get it! Oh well, have to keep lookin' closer to home...

Congrats and have fun with that Mahindra!

The Zetor was a sween little machine, and performed wonderfuly. After all of the years I owned it I never got it stuck. The new owner did however his first time out. Seems he was pulling Weeping Willows out of a pond and needed a little longer chain, so he backed in the water a little too far, hooked to the tree, the tires dug in.............dug being the key word. Said it came out with a little tug from his truck.
