EDL,:wave: I bought a Mahindra 6520 4WD with backhoe, a Stihl chainsaw, and a Hustler Zero Turn mower from the same salesman at the same dealer. If I was lucky and called at 8:01 in the morning, I could talk to him. Any other time during the day he was too busy to come to the phone. He...

I almost joined the Army to be a WOC. Vision tests made that iffy. I used to rebuilt wrecked helicopters, but never got to turn wrenches on them. I joined the airlines when the bottom fell out of oil (and helicopters) back in the 80s. I had a friend that was a flight instructor , but with...

EDL,:wave: Yep, been an A&P for 32 years.:cool: Straight from high school. Got my A&P certificates the first year I was old enough. I was going to be a corporate pilot, but didn't like where they waited and ate while waiting on their bosses. I would rather just fly and not be a pilot...

Erik, Do you think I can get blue and channel cats together in my small pond? Bring cool weather when you come.:letitsnow: hugs, Brandi

Guess I need to get to my dealer and pick up new brochures. Now that I think about it, my 30 series brochure is pre Tier III! Turbos have came a long way since the 80s when I worked on them on small airplanes. I agree turbos are here to stay. Emissions will keep getting tighter and we will...

Oops, my mistake. I was thinking the 7060 was not turbocharged, but it is a 3 cylinder turbocharged and intercooled engine, while the 5530, 6030, and the 6530 are 4 cylinder non turbo engines. The 4530 is a 3 cylinder. Top and tilt hydraulics on your box blade is a must for fine tuning...

Thanks. I am kicking myself now for not thinking of catching all the sick cats before they died. I would have my wheelbarrow full of water along with the Big RED Beast's bucket. Guess that is a good reason for another pond. hugs, Brandi

ELD, I am thinking the gearing difference is the ag tires on the 6530. Also, the 7060 is not turbocharged. It's just a more emission controlled engine than on my 6520. It all boils down to injector and emission settings I guess It is best to figure out what tractor you need...

I screwed up. I had some algae blooming and I bought Cutrine-Plus Algaecide from Tractor Supply. I miss figured and put in 4 times too much. I realized my mistake later Saturday night when I was rechecking dosage rates for the second half of the pond. The cats died oh so slowly, it...

EDL, I have heard about the rpm difference before on the lower end of the 30 series. I just looked at the brochure on the 30 series and I can say that the $1700 difference will be 2 remotes and about 165 pounds which probably comes from the larger ag tires on the rear (which might be a...

Al, Guess I stated it wrong.:pat: The 20 series Mahindra's have tilt steering wheels.:cool: hugs, Brandi

Terry2816,:tiphat: Try greasing with the pivot in different positions. Is it a bucket pivot or steering pivot? Either way, lift the front axle off the ground with the bucket and see if your fittings will take grease. hugs, Brandi

Yawn.:pat: If only Mahindra advertising would let me put the video they took of me digging up and pushing over a tree on you tube. Now that was something.:soapbox: hugs, Brandi

Alblancher,:tiphat: What Mahindra do you have?:confused: I can adjust the steering wheel and stand up, while mowing grass, on my Big RED Beast (6520).:cool: Really takes the strain off, being able to stand when I want.:thumb: hugs, Brandi

If used tractor financing is not a problem, a used Mahindra 6520 or even a 7520 is in the cards. I have seen local 7520s going for $19000 with around 500 hours. hugs, Brandi

EDL, The 6520 was reincarnated as the 7060. Same tractor with the new more emission:rolleyes: controlled engine. Like Brian said, you could find a 6520 if you really wanted one. I love mine.:cool: It is truly a Big RED Beast. hugs, Brandi

I use (& have used) Shell Rotella in all my diesels. My 2002 Dodge Cummins has over 264,000 miles on it (from 1st oil change) and my Mahindra 6520 has over 557 hours on it. I run Rotella synthetic oil in my 10 hp diesel generator. Shell has a million mile club for their on road diesels. I...

Bordercollie,:tiphat: Have you compared green warranty to Mahindra's warranty? Mahindra just uped their's. Not much more I can add that Brian and the others haven't already mentioned. Oh yeah......I do love my 6520 4 WD.:cool: hugs, Brandi

Erik, Glad to see you made it home safely. I really enjoyed meeting you. I guess the National Forest is still intact, as I didn't see any fire trucks head that way over the weekend! I was over my friends place 8 hours on Saturday digging up trees and cutting them up with my chain saw. He...
