Well, it's a new day and everything seems better. It rained most of the day so the grass is growing back! I decided to call a couple of other dealers and discovered that I can get a factory new unit for about the same price. My Chief Financial Officer (wife) correctly pointed out that the logic for purchasing a new X540 rather than nursing along the old Cubby was still valid so I'll probably take the plunge (again) next week. We'll see. I just can't believe I'm the only person in the world who has difficulty mowing with a X540 on a slope- especially when the word "multi-terrain" is printed on the hood.

Thanks again- I appreciate all of the excellent suggestions and advice!

Fordlords- I love that old Cub of yours. You are a talented man to do such a fantastic restoration- almost too nice to use :)

I bet the other dealers will work with you to get the 540 to perform correctly. It's a very capable machine (I almost bought one) that will last a long time. And the cutting deck is fantastic (when it's adjusted properly)! That JD dealer seems a bit too proud of himself...
