What did you do to or on your Mahindra today?

Kubota takes blue paint?

Older Kubota's had blue frames, engines. Wonder how old that paint was?

In 1963, Mahindra and International Harvester formed a joint venture
to manufacture International tractors in India under the Mahindra badge.
That could explain why the IH-Case red paint is a match.

Got to mow 10 acres today using my new cruise control. I love it ! (got bad knees, and this is a knee saver)
Took 6 hours of tractor time using my 7' finish mower (3 pt hitch)

I had a small cave-in and the front end of my Ford 8N dropped in a hole that I couldn't get out of. Took the Mahindra 3550 and put the bucket under the bumper. Lifted the little 8N out of the hole like it was made of feathers!

Good afternoon!

I am a senior, business major at Texas A&M University. In one of my classes we are researching customer satisfaction pre and post purchase in the tractor market. My team has created a short survey and would love for y'all to participate. Here is the link: Online Survey Software | Qualtrics Survey Solutions

Your participation is vital to our success in the course, as we need as many participants as possible to produce a high quality analysis.

Your responses will be anonymous. My team and I thank you for your time and hope that you will help us learn more about the tractor industry.
Thank you!

Please be careful, this seems VERY suspicious. I would not follow the link

I run Linux so I'm not worried about a malicious website. I started the survey out of curiosity. It was pretty long. When they started asking personal questions about income, marital status, etc. I quit without finishing it.

How much does that thing shake the tractor? Says it has 30,000 lbs of impact at full stroke.

Actually not as much as you would think. The legs on the 3pt hitch make a HUGE difference. Set them on the ground, level up the driver with the cranks, pound a few times and check the post for level (adjusting as necessary) and then go to town. The tractor moves very little and the post in in the ground in less than 5 minutes start to finish.

No pictures, but I rebuilt the berms at my club's shooting range.

Nothing here. My new Mahindra 3550 is in the shop. Again. This time with a transmission problem and a hydraulic loss of power. More lost time. They have had it for seven days now. They have fixed everything so far, no charges. But, I'm losing too much time and too many times. I didn't buy a new tractor for frustration.

York Raked about half an acre in prep for Hydro Seeding. Only to realize it is too late in the season. That is actually OK, I need to go rock picking over the same land. Where I am, no amount of raking will get rid of all the rocks, more just pop up behind. Time to hire a helper. And by helper I mean a guy to pick rocks while I go pretend to be busy elsewhere.

 

[Gasifier]

Nothing. More lost time. Waiting on a new steering cylinder. 254 hours on meter........

 

[Gasifier]

Tractor steering is now fixed but it has done nothing but rain here lately. So the Mahindra and I wait for better weather.

I need one of these. Jealous.

 

[Gasifier]

Moved a few timbers, and one heaping load of topsoil to level off in a stall in the barn. Getting some things done that need to be before the snow starts flying. We've been lucky with the weather so far. Extra time to get things done.

Fixed drainage in a backyard. Barely fit through the gate (removed the gate off the hinge to get another 2").

Moved some logs, and the new 2535 handled it like a boss. Love the extra weight and lift capacity.
