New (to me) Rear Finish Mower

Very nice mower Roy, that ought to make quick work out of your lawn.

Roy, I've got a PRD 7200 Woods that is painted blue to match my NH 1720. You've got the same mower in Deere green. That is a real nice unit. I really like mine. I especially like the rolled bar edge on the bottom deck for extra support and the cast iron sheaves. You're gonna like that unit a lot. It is a heavy bugger for a 6' unit.

Sure is heavy...it weighs darn near the same as that 84" Befco I had.

Funny thing...when my buddy and I first discussed him buying my Befco (and he is very happy with it, BTW), I found a Woods RD7200 72" RFM on the local Craigslist. I'd made tentative arrangements to go look at it, once the Befco was sold.
I just happened to call my local Deere dealer on the way home from work to see what they had and the salesguy told me about this one. The Frontier, being a PRD7200, was actually a newer mower (sold in 2007 or 2008) then the RD7200 (about 9 years old, according to the seller), for the same asking price.
Reckon I just lucked out...

My father stumbled upon mine at an auction. Think its an 07. He said he couldn't pass it up for $700, Was hardly used. It took some time to talk him put of it though!
