Thinking \'Bout Selling the B7500
I have a B7500 that I really love, but am thinking about maybe making some changes... maybe to a different model. I wish the 60" MMM cut a better cut. It always seems like I get a rough looking cut after I am done. I do not know if it is due to the weight of the tractor flattening the grass before the mower, or the ground-contact style mower. Don't get me wrong... it really cuts well, but I don't get the results I had hoped for. After spending the cash on the MMM, I think I could have gotten the same results with a RMM, and had the versatility (or ease) of removing the RMM when using the loader instead of the chore I have with the MMM. In addition, the front tires really chew up circles around the flowerbeds I have around the trees in the front yard. It looks like a dog has been running circles around the trees fore years and worn the grass away in a six inch wide swath. I've tried tire pressure changes, 2WD, 4WD, slower speeds, etc... but no difference. The wife is a little unhappy with me after I spent $$$$ for this fancy tractor, and the old garden tractor did a better job. Should I have gone BX2200 with the suspended deck?
