Im looking to get a mower, finally. I need at least a 48" cut, bigger would be nice. Also, must have a power flow type bagger. We looked at a 99 345 with 500 hrs. Was in nice shape but it didnt have a bagger. Price was $3000. The misses didnt like driving around (this was the first one and it was only 30 minutes from the house) so she mentioned getting a new one. A 340 with a power flow would be around 5 grand according to the deere website. I found a 445 with an mc519 about 3 hours away with 800 hours listed for $4900 at a dealer.
Im torn between the 400 series tractor that could spin a 60" deck and a new warrantied smaller tractor. I think the older series, even the 345 are better built than the new x series.
