"I live in the mountains of Warren County Pennsylvania. There are low temperatures, a good amount of snow and a large forest and stream. The 2516 handles it well and I have a versatile selection of attachments. I would suggest as standard equipment: 1) block heater 2) agricultural tires 3) battery trickle charger They should be standard on all tractors. "

"4 wheel drive, takes care of all my jobs, from Backhoeing to blowing snow, to shoveling dirt. The perfect little rig to handle what northern Maine can dish."

"I have done quite a bit of mowing and snow blowing with this tractor. Haven't had a single issue with it, other than getting stuck in deep snow a couple times. Only burns about a gallon an hour under full load. Bucket will lift anything that fits in it. Highly recommended. I am trading it in on a bigger one (3616 cab)."

"After replacing an old, tired 8N, this tractor fit the bill just right. It has plenty of power, and will handle most any 5 foot implement. The loader is quick on and off, and handles anything you need it to do. It is compact and will fit in tight spots. The power steering is wonderful, and shuttle shift is easy to use and convenient. I do recommend rear chains for traction in the slippery snow, but overall is easy on fuel, and power to spare. Also if you run without the loader, front weights are a must. Overall: Very reliable, and I have had no issues in two years. Mahindra is good quality at a reasonable price. "
