Recently bought a 2565 Cab Shuttle shift. Only have a few hours on it so far pushing snow in upstate NY. Seems to be solid machine with plenty of power to handle 10' box blade even in wet snow. Had a 65HP Belarus that sometimes struggled with the blade last year, and the Mahindra just runs away with it. Only negatives so far is Owners manual and Service manual appear to have been written by people who know little English and don't proof read - pretty much worthless! Looking for any input from people that have had Mahindras for a while on a couple topics: 1. We have temps down into single numbers so on other diesels I have you typically hold heater on for about 30 seconds until you see a little vapor or hear a signal and then light it up. Mahindra has a glow plug signal but I've held it on for only 30 seconds, or until my hand goes to sleep before starting and never noticed a difference. BTW it started at 3 degrees yesterday even when I forgot about glow plug. With all the new emission equipment and being turbocharged I'm trying to be careful. Any thoughts / suggestions? 2. 3 point hitch arms seem to move in about 4 inch increments. You keep moving control lever with nothing happening and then suddenly the lift arms move 3-4inches both up or down. All my other tractors lift arms have always been very smooth / consistent relative to control movement. Is this typical of Mahindra or do I need to have a discussion with my dealer?

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
