OK, I've looked at them all. Owned a bunch of them and had really good luck with the all. Maybe I don't beat it up? I dunno. Maybe it's the maintenance? I don't know, but I have had outstanding luck even with MTD type, Craftsman type lawn mowers over the past 30-35 years. No complaints. Never had an engine failure. Don't expect to get more than 8-10 years out of one, but occasionally have, never had one go less.
Here are the rules.
Nominate the "best" Lawn Tractor, in your opinion, and why, for $1600. Sorry, but that's the budget. No nominations accepted under the guise of "spending an extra grand and getting soooo much more" logic. I get that. Truly do. But that's it. $1600.
Deck width is of no concern.
Your nomination may include a higher priced unit if you can verify that it is actually on sale at the limited price. I am quite open to suggestions. Tell me the warts, tell me the good points. BTW, no "options". That skews everything too much to compute baggers, etc.
Mucho appreciated. Genuinely.
