I am looking at getting a B3200 or L series 2800 or 3400 with a hydrostat due to severe knee problems with my left knee. A guy down the road from me has a 3400 with the regular transmission. He says that you can shift from reverse to low with applying half the clutch and brake and it is easy to change directions. For you guys that have a regular transmission, how would it be on a guy after 3-4 hours with no cartilage that is facing a knee replacemnt in the next year? Basically, is it a lot of work on clutch if you were doing something that requires a lot of changing from forward to reverse? I can demo one around the lot but have no idea how it would effect me after a days use.
Also if I were to have a problem years down the road with the hydrostat, how much more expensive would it be to fix or replace than the standard transmission? Pump vs. clutch etc? I can have it worked on for $45 an hour.
