Re: some mahindra\'s seem to be nothing but trouble

Hey MUSA, take a look at my post on the 112 loader.

If there is a reason why the hyd lines cant be routed like that, let me know.

If it is a good fix that you adopt, I want a hat /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I have had only 2 problems with mine in 240 ish hours in under a year. The latest hyd line thing, and I jammed one of the front axel cups up into the knuckle. No problems with the dealer or the fix. I am willing to accept the cup as my fault because I very well may have came down on something bad. I used the fecal matter out of this little guy this summer in ways that probably not all by the book. I didnt buy it just to wax it.

Hyd lines blow and I didnt see it give so I will assume that I got something up against it. However that could be a better design. (shameless hat hint )

I have blown a hyd hose on a new JD so that in nothing against the Mahindra.

If Varmintmist gets a hat, I want one also. I am not rerouting lines or anything but I was a little suprised that when you buy a 3510, w/fel, and 3 other costly implements, no hats or anything come with it. They did however offer to deliver for free! Seriously, I am kidding about the hat, I have way to many now, but MUSA, your company is missing the boat in this regard. Hats and T's are a very cheap source of advertiseing. Just think, someday you could do like Harley Davidson and get the poor saps to pay you to advertise their product.

At time of delivery my dealer gave me a hat and a pen /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Someone said in here that Deere doesn't make their own machines. I hope they weren't talking about the 5000 series because they are all made in Deere fully owned facilities. Even the one in India is 100% Deere.

When you say 5000 series give me some model number that you are refering to.
Are you saying like the 5320,5520,5420 and so, is that what you are calling the 5000 series?

Where can I buy Mahindra hats, pens, shirts, etc..? I really enjoy my tough tractor and I want to "show" it. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR MAHINDRA APPAREL FOR A LONG TIME WITH NO RESULTS.....IF SOME CAN HELP, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

I just ordered some hats and a t-shirt from BUSH HOG in Selma, Alabama with no problems.

Thanks,
Travis

Your Mahindra dealer can order these items for you. But with the numerous requests, I'm thinking of allowing customers to order direct. Good idea??

Sound like a good idea, what can it hurt? Maybe even throw in consumables like filters for those of us that live many miles from the dealer.

I got a nice goody sack when I bought, but maybe because I humhawed till 2:00 pm on Saturday afternoon and the dealer would have given me the keys to the gate to get rid of me.

In my little world, myself and 2 friends, the experiences with the pieces and the dealer have been generally good. No complaints.
