I was going to have to replace it after 10 years, last summer, and after looking around a lot, I settled on a Kabota, a really well built mower, and very user friendly. but you can only get parts from Kabota,  The model I was going to buy is about $5,300.00, which is roughly comparable to most brands, for this size mower. I'm 75 years old I think, and have a little money put back, and it suddenly occured to me, how many times could I have my lawn mowed and trimmed, for $5300.00 plus all the Gasoline, oil, parts, etc. it would cost for me to do it! As  it turned out I can have it mowed, and trimmed, for about 7/8 years, for that amout of money, while I set in the house with the AC going, and watch out the window. If I'm still kicking in 7/8 years, the new mower I was going to buy would be worn out, and so would I, and I would have to buy another! I called a lawn service, and this young man came out to give an estimate, and ended up buying a backhoe and dump truck I was thinking about selling! These YOUNG ENERGETIC GUYS keep my lawn looking better than I did, and just take care of it, even if we are gone somewhere!</p></blockquote><p></p>
