Looking at a 718 Grass Hopper. Has an 18hp Vantage Briggs engine, single rear wheel and 52" deck. Any thoughts about reliability? Not sure how old it is, but it has about 900 hrs. I have a Kobota diesel now. Runs great ,but the deck is worn badly. I like the zero turn and the deck out front on the Grass Hopper. I have lots of pine trees and fence to mow under. Any advice will be appreciated.

I don't know a lot about Grasshopper's, but generally you don't want to buy a mower if it has over 1,000 hours on it. If you are just using it for YOUR OWN yard, it would be fine, but I would look for something with less hours if you have a lawn care company.
