Last night I crashed the two day old BX25 into the garage door (which we just got this year). The BX was unharmed except for a few minor scratches, but the garage door and frame was completely destroyed. While we were removing the door, it started pouring rain. So we had to try to find tarps to cover the BX, but they were all too small. We tried the best we could to dry it of with rags, but I hope water did not get into the controls. Getting back to the accident...Our garage doors are 8'x8', but the opening is smaller. When I rolled up the door last night (we don't have an opener) the door did not go all the way up, so there was about six inches - a foot that was in the opening. When I pulled out I was looking at the sides to make sure the mower deck would not hit the frame, and I never looked up...Needless to say, I don't think I'll be driving the tractor anymore. (at least for a while) Now all I keep thinking about is all the attachments I could buy for what it is going to cost to replace the door...
