Sounds like a good price. I paid around $1000 or a little more for mine last fall. I have a 6' and used to have a 5'. Both are built like tanks and very easy to service for routine maintainence. Never had anything go wrong with either. Factory support is great if you have any questions. I would not hesitate to buy another as I personally can't see spending 2 grand at the dealer to cut my grass. The yard looks great and you get a lot for the money. Hard to find nowadays.
