I had a JD L110 for 14 years. Now all I heard was the issues with the K46, now I just sold it with the Wineeeing just starting. Now a friend across the field has one, he can only drive for an hour before he has to stop or is it stops till it cools down.
May I suggest at the age of 30 something you have a long life to enjoy the pease and time alone on the unit. Go and look at a Zero turn, make sure it has a minimum ZT 3100 this way you will go for 25+ years with no issues. I have 2 acres that took me near 5 hr. with the JD and now with my new Hustler Fastback SD, just under 2 with a smile on my face!!
You will never regret buying Quality..... :thumbs:
Good luck
