73" bucket!! That is awesome!:thumbsup:
Great looking machine.
I noticed on your deck,it has the "squared wheels". Read alot of posts where JD changed the square wheels to rounded on the 62D.Wonder why not the 72 also.
Maybe check into that.

Very good point because my old 62D was and early model that had the square wheels and dug a lot on turns. Then deere changed them to the new style with grease zerks and that problem went away. I had that on my list of things to watch out for. Since this deck is brand new deere must not have an issue with this deck or just not enough complaints or sales volume to have a fix in place. These do have grease zerks and the front wheels have a spring return so they should not go sideways and dig.
I did read in the deck owners manual that the rear gauge wheels on the 72" are allowed to be on the ground full-time if you have a rolling yard. The fronts of course are to be off the ground.
