I'm considering the purchase of a Max 25 HST with the loader and backhoe. My question is what price should I expect for a package like this before I go talk with the dealer. My closest dealer is about 25 miles away so I'd like to be prepared before I pay them a visit.

My advice would be to research what you want based on what you want to do with it and e-mail them for a quote ahead of time, and let them know if you are looking for financing or are a cash buyer. Let them know you are going to buy in the next 1-3 months (or whatever your time table might be) and you'll be visiting after you hear from them and what they have in stock for you to look for. In my experience my two nearby Mahindra dealers were very quick to respond and follow-up with me.

Of course lots of help on these forums, many of us have been through the process recently.

When I went to my dealer, I already knew exactly what I wanted for a tractor. I had done my research, and walked in. I had a couple of questions but the rest was discussing pricing and options and doing paperwork. I knew what prices were of comparable competitors tractors, but what I found out was how badly most Mahindra dealers want to penetrate the market- especially here on the west coast, and by my experience they were willing to do that in their pricing. That should be no secret, but in the end its all in what you negotiate. If you are talking "cash price" plan on adding about 4.25% to that in finance charges (plus a few other small fees) no matter what the current adds are telling you about 0% financing for 84 months. If you truly want the 0% financing, then your not talking "cash price" anymore, and the price goes up about 4.25%. Amazing how that works! To give you a ball park cash price for tractor and loader should be in the 14-15$K range, and about 5K$ for the Backhoe.

Here is a little thought for you. The Max 28XL has tier 3 emissions and the new reguirements are for tier 4. What that means is the 28 xl is going to be detuned down to 24.9 hp (i think) and be rebadged the 26 xl (?). However the dealer I was at last weekend looking for the Max 28xl told me that with the Tractor, loader, backhoe and a box scrapper it would be $300 for 84 months. But cash and it you buy two 3pt implements would not that total down by $1500.
Just a reminder that is a west coast price.

Thanks. I was looking at the Max vs eMax and the MSRP is lower on the eMax series. It'll be a cash buy! I was looking at the backhoe specs and the specs on the Max 25 backhoe are higher than the Max 28 backhoe. Also, the specs are lower on the eMax 25 backhoe than the Max 25 backhoe. Both Max and eMax Series pdf's are listed below. Any thoughts on this?

Max 25... dipper 1,256 lbs... bucket 2,050 lbs... depth 80"
eMax 25... dipper 903 lbs... bucket 2,145 lbs... depth 76.3"
Max 28... dipper 903 lbs... bucket 2,145 lbs... depth 76.3"

One thought here is that you need to consider the "whole" tractor not just one implement or attachment. Consider the most "brutal" job you would do with it and see how they stack up.
Sorry I forgot to add this but the dealer I was at last weekend said that the frames on the emax are lighter. You might want to check this but consider the source was a salesman.

I bought the MAX 28 with loader, backhoe and mid mount mower. I went for the bigger tractor and the better loader specs because of the kind of work I want to do with the tractor. I did notice the lower specs on the backhoe but they weren't too far off. I have dug out four stumps, built a fire pit with the backhoe and it really digs! I can lift the tractor with the backhoe no problem! The loader is very impressive and very smooth, easy to operate. I am planning on putting a quick attach system on the loader so I can use my skid steer forks.
