I finally got my mower. I actually got it last week but with the rain I finally got to mow with it this weekend and man-oh-man, it sure is a nice mower. Plenty of power and a very smooth ride. I really like the suspension seat and 72" rear discharge deck. No more grass blowing over me or the mower. I put 3 hours on her and it was nice. I'm a little disappointed that the factory blades were not as sharp as I would have liked it but I can fix that. I did order a spinner knob to make it a little easier to trim around my trees and not have to put my beer down. And once Rural King sends out their 10% off coupon, I will order the orange Femco Tuff Top to give me a little shade. It was more than I wanted to spend but my dealer wrote it up as a tractor so I didn't have to pay sales taxes. I did have one mishap while mowing. A little locust thorn punctured the sidewall on the main drive wheel and gave me a flat. I took care of it today at the tire shop for $11 but already see the need for a good tire sealant to keep these flats at bay. Once it stops raining and dries up, I'm going to find the stragler locust sprouts, snip them off and add Tordon RTU to them so they wont come back. I did order some tire sealant from Gemplers.
