Is Raptor SD overkill for homeowner with 1 acre?

93 hours on mine with one archer. But I just had one hydro pump replaced even thought my 3 years warrenty ended in May, my dealer worked a deal with the rep, so they say. Also had a steering belt break this spring,

You've got a good dealership. Mine is a POS.

It's great that you have a dealer that supports you like that. Did they have any idea what caused the failure on the hydro at such low hours?

Didn't get a chance to ask. The hydro oil was real dirty, 2 years ago and also this year. Had it changed for the 2nd time and as soon as they dropped it off, the levels were not in-line when you went forward. Cut my yard and they came picked it up again. Replaced the one side pump and now my handles touch when I try to go forward on one and backwards on the other. QA is not very good. Anyone know how I can fix this myself, or is it a lot of work?
