Nice. I picked up a 2003 21hp MTD Yard Machines mower a while back. Sold engine and does a great job with its 42” deck. Use nothing but non ethanol premium in it and it runs li k e a dream.
When we moved to our place in 2011, I bought a used Craftsman rider with a 46” deck and used it to mow the acre or so around our house and left the rest of it as hay for a neighbor for his Angus cattle. But my wife hated all that long stuff surrounding our place. Plus, the last couple of years, every time I used that mower something broke, be it a belt, bent rod (I mentioned in another thread that a mouse had built a home around one of the cylinders, caking the cooling fins with dried mud), even a rabbit chewing through a fuel line. It took 2.5 hours to mow that acre.
Now the five acres takes the same time and same gas. And it’s like living in a park. It’s also fun to practice using my Irons on it (golf). That 60” zero turn changed our life. Funny how a mower does that. I should have bought it when we moved here.
I’ve heard of MTD but never seen one. Are they as fast as a Honda? :-D
