I just found this site, and am probably asking a question that has been answered a million times.
Mahindra tractors are new to our part of the country, and I am considering the purchase of a 6500. I have semi-retired and leased most of the farm to others, and only farm from 20-40 acres anymore. I started looking for a 55+ PTO horse tractor to handle my hay equipment and for keeping up the small amount of land I still do farm. I am used to John Deere and Massey Ferguson tractors, but have given up on the new little models because they are so light and prone to breaking. The Mahindra looks like a real tractor, made for real work, so what is wrong with them, if anything?
Anyone have one with 50 horses that has some real hours on it? I expect a tractor to last me about 7,500 hours without any mechanical failures. Is that reasonable for this brand?
