The X729 is the same as the x749 except gas engine.
By way of introduction, my name is Mike - a lifelong John Deere fan. Cant get it out of my blood. Will probably be buried sitting on a tractor. Its a great escape from the routine of the daily job to get outside & play with big boy toys.
So, I've been looking for a used 54" blower ever since they came out for my x475 AWS. Hard to find. People only sell them with their tractor. The only other tractor I'd buy would be another AWS, this time with 4WD. That's never the tractor being sold with a 54' blower, so I'm always out of luck. Is the x749 the only AWS 4WD choice with John Deere? What was the 1st year the 4WD AWS models came out? A while back i asked if there was such a machine & i was told no. As of now i know that either wasn't true, or has changed.
Gator800r - how did you find your x749? I'm in WI also and would be willing to drive for a deal like that also - even without a blower. If anyone out there comes across another deal like that, please let me know! (and of course for the 54' JD blower also)
Thanks everyone.
