There are a lot of tractor manufacturers in the United States, and some are better known than Mahindra, but Mahindra has been in the equipment building business internationally for quite some time. And Mahindra offers great service at a great price for landowners who need power equipment on their property.
The Mahindra company got its start in India in 1945 when two brothers and a friend decided to enter into business together. It didn’t start with agricultural equipment but instead began with steel. Only a few years after the company’s inception, it expanded its market by accepting a contract to build WWII Willys vehicles. As India gained its independence, the company was able to grow more and find new ways to serve more customers.
Mahindra tractors weren’t introduced to the American market until 1988, and it took a lot of hard work to integrate their models into the U.S. dealership network. The brand was not well-established until 1994, and it would continue to gain traction well into the 2000s. In 2011, the North American headquarters were established in Houston, Texas.
Partnering with a network of independently-owned dealerships, Mahindra delivers essential equipment for those embracing the rural lifestyle. Rural landowners should check out Mahindra-engineered tractors and ROXORs – perfect for customers who want great performance, durability, and comfort at a competitive price. Proudly based in Houston, Texas, MAgNA has been making rural life better since 1994. Whether you’re working the land, caring for livestock, or going fishing, Mahindra has a product to help you make the most of your day.
Mahindra Product Offerings
Chris Hankins of Mahindra of Mobile based in Theodore tells us that they offer several sizes and types of machine to meet landowners’ needs. He says, “Range of tractors offered- Sub Compact 20-24hp, Compact 23-26 hp, Compact Utility 26-39 hp, Utility 60-75 hp. We also offer a full line of Mahindra Implements i.e. disk harrow, rotary cutter, rotary tiller, box scrapers, land planes, augers, and grapple rakes.”
And Hankins is quick to point out that at this time, Mahindra is offered some very attractive package deals for landowners to consider. He tells us, “ Right now we are offering the Mahindra 1626HST 4wd with loader, 5′ Box Blade, 5′ Rotary Tiller, and 18′ Lone Wolf Trailer for only $30,999.”
Hankins knows the Mahindra product line and he knows that Mahindra brings a lot to the table for rural landowners. He says, “ Mahindra Tractors are backed by an 84-month warranty, they have no DEF, no DPF, and no REGEN, and we offer 0% financing for 84 months on most units.”
And What About Service?
Even the best equipment and machines in the world need service and replacement parts from time to time, and it can be very frustrating for owners who need parts and materials but have to wait for shipment and delivery from warehouses far away. A big advantage of landowners using Mahindra of Mobile for their tractor and equipment needs is that they carry a full range of parts on hand. Hankins says, “We have a full line of Mahindra filters, fluids, and popular parts in-stock here at the dealership. We have ordering capability for all available Mahindra parts through Mahindra USA. In just a few short days we can have anything Mahindra parts related.
And as far as service for a Mahindra tractor goes, Hankins points out that Mahindra of Mobile has owners’ needs covered. He says, “ Our shop is full service. We have certified Mahindra technicians capable of completing maintenance service, repairs, replacement, and Mahindra warranty work. In addition we can add equipment like 3rd function, backhoes, or rear remotes to your new or existing tractor.
Other Important Reasons to See Mahindra of Mobile
We asked Chris Hankins why buying from a local dealer is so important. He says, “Buy local, buy from someone you know! We want to develop long-lasting relationships with our customers; we want you to know who you’re talking to. We don’t want to just sell you a tractor, we want to sell you the perfect Mahindra tractor and help you keep in tip top shape so every time you turn the key, all you have to worry about is where to start your work.”
And we found some new owner testimonials about the product and the service buyers have had with Mahindra of Mobile. A buyer wrote to Hankins and said, “Chris, I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for all the time you spent helping me decide what was best for me. The tractor and implements are perfect for our farm, and the instruction your delivery guy gave us really helped us understand how it all worked. Thanks again, we will see you soon!” James- Irvington, AL
Finally, Chris Hankins expressed the long-term intentions of the new Mahindra dealership in the Mobile area. He said, “I think all small businesses are of economic benefit to the local community. In my mind farming on any scale is the backbone of America. We hope to provide people with the equipment they need to grow or harvest what they want, like vegetables to sell at the local produce stand, hay for your horses, or a beautiful greenfield for the deer to feed while you watch on a crisp November afternoon. In doing so our hope is that every unit we sell becomes of economic benefit to the community. Even if that benefit is just helping your neighbor move the tree that fell during a storm.”
