My 2010 5035 has been awesome. Like most other 5035 owners, you will never hear me complain about not enough power for any job.
I highly recommend my dealer, Lott Enterprises in Claxton, GA. Service and support have been top notch.

Well, I'm gonna have to agree with brother Jerry. My Mahindra 6520 4WD with backhoe takes so much of my time, I can't get anything done off of the tractor. Like cleaning house and visiting friends. I am always looking for ways to use my Big RED Beast more and more. That is bad also as I am always searching auctions and buying more and more toys to attach to it. Toys that weigh lots and lots of pounds and need more room on my trailer. Which makes me want a longer trailer, that is only 11 months old. Oh the visious cycle.:shocked: Where does it all end?:confused2: hehehe. I love my Mahindra.:licking: Best investment I ever made.:thumbsup: Well, besides buying trucks with Cummins in them.
hugs, Brand

I have a 2516 that gets used for wood hauling/dragging and food plots, no problems yet!

Mahindra 5530, 2wd, FEL, and 6 foot bush hog. Only 11 hours so far, but LOVE it! Big, heavy, powerful tractor. I am having a smoking issue, to much white smoke from exhaust, but I have contacted the dealer and they are being very helpful in getting it solved. Being the week of the 4th their service tech was on vacation but they said they would contact me Monday to get it handled. As I said though even with the smokeing issue it has done everything I've asked of it. I went from smaller compact tractors (27-32hp) now up to a 55hp full size utility tractor and will never go back. As many have said on here, decide what size you think you need and go one size bigger, you wont be disappointed. Thanks, and good luck!!

3215 4WD with fel. A little over 400 hours and it has done everything I have asked of it. Just finished baling 10 acres of hay with it. It did a great job operating the MF Dyna balance sickle mower, pulling the hay rake, and took care of business with the IH 37 square baler.

3616 shuttle, only problem was an alternator issue about 10 hrs, new alternator installed by our dealer no questions and another owners club hat in the mail several weeks later. Only cost me $1000 for a box blade.
The tractor does all that we have asked so far with no other issues. Sure love the quick change bucket on ours, best money ever spent, I can change from bucket to pallet forks faster than I can drive to the the storage area. I will be modifying the brush cutter hookup to a sliding pin from a stud pin to ease the changing if implements. The 72 inch brush cutter is a lot harder to move a little for lineup than the old 42 inch one on our old Yanmar.

8560 4 wheel drive. 147 hours on it total. 100 hrs brush hogging blackberry bushes and over growth. Put up 395 5X6 round bales so far. Dug out a 2 foot deep pig wallow to 12 feet deep and 70 feet wide. that was a muddy blast!!! Put in 20 fence post. Dragged the 1/2 mile drive way twice. Not on problem yet except I should of listen to the wife for once and got a Cab...LOL. this is all on my 80 acre cattle ranch that has been neglected for 10 years. Mahindra was the best tractor for this job!

Check your loader bolts. On my 7520 they were all loose at less than 100ft# when delivered. Two that were hard to find were finger tight. Some on the subframe also needed washers to shim for a neutral fit up. Get em right and theyll stay tight.

- I have about 1000 hrs of loader work out of 1200. A strong platform. The front driveshaft twisted off and later the left halfshaft at the front knuckle. Re the latter, I have the old weak power steering and sometimes the wheels will cock to the lock in a hard push on uneven ground. Now I stop and straighten them before continuing.

I read on this site about checking the loader bolts. So it was the first thing that I did when I got her home. Had 2 that were loose. Thanks for the tip. Should be a sticky on this subject..

I have a 4510 Mahindra with a FEL. I like it except the grille/radiator design/location of the battery and windshield washer container makes it very prone to clogging the radiator when mowing in tall grass. Seeds/chaft etc get in but are not so easy to get out.
