Just traded in my 4500 for the 7520

[Tom7520]

All I have to say is the platform lay out is much more ergonomic and that it is one powerful machine. The 4500 4WD was very reliable just not enough to do some heavy clearing. More to come!

Don't forget that the 7520 is the best looking tractor around!

Post pics - I'd love to see that beast in action.

what kind of deal did you get? how many hours on 4500? what was trade in value?

Congrats! You got to be one happy tractor owner about right now. Those 7520's are beautimous! Talk about being a true tank of a tractor too! Awesome!

Congrats!! Don't forget the pics. Make sure it's a little dirty so it's not so shiny and new and I'm not quite so <font color="green"> green</font> with envy.... /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Tom7520, you are going to love your new tractor. What implements do you have that you will be using? Be careful if you are using implements that you were using with your 4500. That 7520 will bend them up like a pretzel if you're not watching. Did you get your tires loaded? Oh, fill out your profile so that we know a little bit about you. Happy tractoring /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I got $16,000 for my 4500 with 200 hours on it. I paid $18,000 for it a year ago and it had 40 hours on it (Demo)
This one was a Demo as well and had 41 hours on it. Has brush guard, canopy, loader and 6ft Rhino HD bush hog for $30,100.

I got my tractor tires loaded and have wheel weights. You are not kidding about the attachments, especially the loader. I snapped both bucket tilt pistons like they were pretzels. The dealer told me he had another 7520 do the same thing due to the nuts backing off inside the pistons. He covered it under warranty but I'm kinda paranoid about putting it under load now. I wasn't impressed with the piston sizes when I bought it and he remembers me commenting on it. It's the ML275 loader by the way. The tractor itself is a tank and I'm not sure this loader can handle the punishment, but I'll see in time. When I get it back together I'll post some pics.

The FEL is on the mahindra websiite. I do not know who makes it for Mahindra only that it is a ML275.
