Mahindra is providing Scott with a machine that will make his yard work so much easier, and he can do it in style. More performance. More strength. More value. Mahindra tractors deliver on every point. This is a powerful solution for all seasons and one that provides great piece of mind for our hero,” says Lysa Liemer, executive producer of Operation Build. “Mahindra tractors are heavier and sturdier for greater traction, stability and control giving Scott the tool he needs for all seasons.”
