The Mahindra tractors started out as IH utility tractors. Real similar to the B-414s and the D-212. They did not produce the large row crop tractors.

I just looked up Mahindra's history. They started out with IH in 1965 with the 275.

I remember going to the Louisville tractor show in the mid 1980s. Mahindra had a little side booth. They had one tractor on display. It looked like a B414 but with a better diesel engine.

I never saw one sold until about 2003-4. Then a local salvage yard started to sell them. He still is selling them and the Korean TYM tractors.

I have been around a couple of them. They seem to be working out for guys that are part time farmers. The one farmer that uses his full time in a livestock operation has torn his up a few times but he has also trashed JD and IH tractors too.
