    2005 CC 2554 Purchase

    I am seriously considering the purchase of a CC 2554. I currently own a Husqvarner GT 220 Kohler (22hp) w/hydro, 50" deck, 875 hours. The tranny has pretty much gone out. I pull several attachments (until recently that is). I've seen several posts on the CC 2544 but nothing on a 2554. This would...
