Absolutely love it. The build quality is second to none. When I'm not at work, I'm in the garage taking things apart, cleaning, repairing (if needed), and reassembling. I've replaced the motor to deck belt and a pulley on the mule drive, other than that just getting all the fluids changed. Even going back with synthetic lubes hasn't been a problem.

I think I've got the green flu, or whatever it's called. :smile:

That's great!:eek: Any well-built and maintained piece of older stuff is usually a good value; traction-control, zero-turn, back-up safety switching, tire pressure monitoring systems, catalytic converters, disc brakes, awd traction control, low windshield washer fluid warning lamps be damned. It is ultimately just mowing grass, and having it look good when you're done.:smile::biggrin:
