[AJD] Lawn Tractor

[Dean Vinson]

Hi Dick--that makes sense to me.  My question was mostly a lament about the
apparently low standards for which Deere (or whoever) built these little
tractors.  I guess a business is in business to do business, and maybe it's
dumb to ignore a market segment which has the potential to make money for
the company and shareholders.  Just seems such a contrast to the
hell-for-stout durability of the old ones.

Frank: 
I like that too - However I listen the Ford list too as I also have some
Fords including an 8N with a 60 inch finish mower which I use when I help
the wife mow.

Dean:
 Because my wife will only drive a hydrostatic mower / tractor, and she does
most of the yard mowing. So I aim to keep her happy. Also it is a
2002 and I didn't spend any where near a couple thousand.

Greg:
I agree that this L120 will never come close to lasting as long as the
Snapper 1850 that we bought in the 80's which my wife was using up till now.
