Eight years ago I bought an Ariens 42" riding mower from HD . Now the poor thing is getting to the end of the road . Still runs good hardly pulls my FA , DW can still get around on it .
I went to our country Tractor repair guy Old Ed , he is older then me but I asked him should I repair or go get another one. He said Heck doesn't sound bad , I can go through it ...If the transmission is leaking it is gone otherwise I can repair cheaply. Cheap to Ed was less then 300.00 Includes oil change , new belts , new blades, tuneup basically going through everything .
I go to the mower stores and I feel like Hank Hill , but he tells me that the only way I could get better then I have is to go with a Zero Turn.
The new ones look so good and I am like a kid . What would you do .
8 year old riding mower , might spend 300.00 . Or spend the 3K get the Zero and rock on . We mow a little over one acre .
