I had a 7254 back 3 years ago, paid too much, at the time I thought that all the creature comforts would be great! BUT at 25 hours I knew I had bought the wrong tractor. At 50 hrs the digital dash panel blew, warranteed, no prob, $800. Had continuous problems with the switches for the pto, again warranteed. Pto shaft was missing a spacer, hydrolic leaks out, warranteed no prob. The on demand 4wd is a joke, as soon as you need it, it comes on so strong you dig in. Winter starting forget it, need to get hydrolic oil heater to get it going, keep in mind this is a gas engine. Hydrostatic wine, too loud, too light wt to do real work. Bolts all over needed to be retourqed. Anyway I learned alot and sold it at 350 hrs, if someone has a nice yard to mow, and move some mulch, crushed rock, etc this small tractor will perform, just didnt meet my requirements. I now have an 870jd which is alot more tractor for less money and has the same hours.
