Thanks for accepting me as a member. I have a John Deere LX277 that I bought in 2003. Now has aver 600 hours on it. I use it to mow grass and blow snow. Had some hiccups at first but have figured out most of it's telltale signs. The Kawasaki engine appears to be good on gas.
Gave our old (2001) Craftsman rider away and got the wife a new JD X300. She's happy and we have some friends that don't have to push mow an acre and a half anymore. Welcome to the forum.
