I am currently looking at the Lx 2610. I am deciding between this and the Mahindra Max 26 xlt. I will be mowing approx. 3 acres of lawn, snow blowing, firewood, and doing some FEL work. I am looking at the R14 tires.
The highlights for me in the Kubota are: 3 spd hydro vs the Mahindra 2 spd. The R14 tires are available and the Mahindra only has R4. The Kubota Mid PTO is separated from the 3pth as the Mahindra they are linked so when using the 3 pth the mid mower will go up and down as well.
The Mahindra shows a better FEL lift capacity and is several thousand cheaper. I am concerned that I will be disappointed in FEL lift capacity of the Kubota. However, I have heard the medium gear in the Kubota is very useful.
Any input would be helpful. I am looking to buy soon. Also has anyone mowed a lawn (not a field) with a tractor this size? I am currently using a 52" husky with a fab deck. I am not looking for speed necessarily, so I wouldn't want to change for a zero turn. I have a use for the tractor and accessories. Oh, Kubota also offers better financing.
