Is there a reason you are limiting yourself to just two makes??
What about CNH, kioti, deere, et al??
The kioti DK50 seems to get high marks on here and is probabally a good bit less $$$ if you have the dealer

After looking at both I went with the Kubota. I felt it was better overall for my uses and the resale is excellent. BUT make sure you have decent dealer support for whatever brand you buy.

Well, I own a Kubota, so I think you should buy that. 
But seriously, I compared both a bit before buying. The Mahindra dealer in my area isn't very big, though, so I didn't seriously look at it. But just doing a walk around of the Mahindras, they didn't seem quite as refined. They do seem like heavy tractors though.
I was similar to you though, coming from an older tractor with no FEL. I had an old Massey Harris that I accomplished a lot with. But, it's amazing what you can get done with an FEL.
Good luck with your purchase.
