No hijack at all...glad to share. I started with a 72 inch Landpride rear finish mower. Liked it but had the opportunity to buy the 918H. Its a real beast - I can pretty much destruct anything with it - very heavy duty. One day I can knock down some real nasty stuff and the next day, it gives me a very nice cut around the yard. I grabbed it off of Craigs List and feel I got a heck of a deal at $2000. The deck had been in a barn, covered with a tarp after its first five hours of use. The thing did not even have a scratch on it.
I like it so much that one of these days, I 'm going to put my Landpride 72 RFM up for sale.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
