Kubota M series VS, Mahindra 6000 series

[ptsg]

I was wondering much time it would take before someone would come up with the theory that Kubota can't be compared to anything else....

Anyways, the Mahindra does seem to have a 15 speed power shuttle transmission according to the brochure.

I have no knowledge of Mahindra. I bought my Kubota M6040 - brand new in 2009. After eleven years I've not had a moments problem with it.

I bet it's worth more than you paid for it too.

IT - you are probably correct. The dealership wants me to trade it in on an upgraded 2021 version. I'm just pleased as punch with what I have .............

Block heaters and loaded tires are probably a dealer installed item.The Kubota loaders are easy to remove.You will also need a skid steer (SS) to add a bale grapple.Also get the HD round-back bucket.As noted the 12 speed over the 8.

If he doesn稚 want a cab has he looked at the MX痴? Big value to capabilities and they have no issues running around with round bales assuming proper ballast.

I just picked up an M4 when my MX had an accident and I realized I could survive without a tractor to haul bales. Wow, itç—´ night and day even though itç—´ only a few more HP the larger tires make a huge difference off road and the heavier base weight feels a lot more stable hauling heavy stuff and the chipper is noticeably faster at chewing through material which is what surprised me the most. And as for the cab, I will keep the MX for all the dirty work in the woods but if youæ±*e not in the woods that cab is pretty awesome.

Thanks for all your help, input and opinions. I like the analogy of comparing Kubota as Snap on and Harbor freight. I am a Kubota guy so I am a little biased but trying to research all options that are available. We are buying a tractor at my work as well and the boss was dead set on Kioti RX6620 compared to the Kubota M 6010(Same options Kioti came in about $1500 cheaper, a no brainer choice to me). I will save that snap on analogy as to when his Kioti has a problem. Yes the Japanese is a different culture and they do their very best to save "face". I know Mahindra is "The number one selling tractor brand in the world". What other items have you all bought from India that was of any quality?

An MX is out of the question as it is hydrostatic

Yeah.....I bet the dealer would love to have your pre pollution devices tractor.
He could likely sell it for close to the price of a new one, but would not be particularly generous with you on the trade.
