Looks good. Can't tell from the pictures but I hope they stuck with the metal hood and fenders.
So when will the 3616 actually be available?
I am waiting on my dealer to receive a 3316 HST w/ FEL that I asked him to order; which he doesn't yet know when he will actually receive.
Mahindra's site indicates the 3316 is direct injected; turbo charged; and intercooled on the page they compare it to Kubota, JD, & NH.
Farm tractors for Ag Farmers, Hobby Farmers - Sub Compact, Compact & Full Size 2WD & 4WD Utility Tractors
Yet elsewhere (web or printed) it is listed as indirect injected; and no mention of an intercooler.
The printed brochure list the engine as a S3L3; I know the S3L2 (2516/2816) is indirect injected. I actually found the service manual for the S3L2 on the web and could see the pre combustion cups in the head.
I sent an E-MAIL to Mahindra but got a similiar response as another poster on another thread that such and such no longer worked for Mahindra but the response provided contacts of two other people for quality or service; but I got yet another reply from a person stating they were out for the National Dealer Meeting in Fort Worth untill the 8th. So perhaps the discrepancy of the IDI vs. DI; as well the questioin about an intercooler, will be answered. Neither are a show stopper. The dealer tried calling his Mahindra contact when I first visited, but he was out. Later found out there was a death in his family.
I would like to know just when the 3616 will be available; and any other details if available.
Thanks for any info,
Bob
