Anyone have experience with their current line up? Specifically the MT100, which seems to be the very last traditional manual transmission lawn tractor available. Unfortunately limited to purchasing from a big box store but will only be used on a mostly flat half acre property. I checked out JD, Husqvarna, Cub and Troy bilt today, all had identical (poor) build quality and had what appeared to be non serviceable hydro set ups. The only "okay" quality mower I saw was a Toro Timecutter but it had a small output Briggs just like the Murray and I would honestly like to avoid zero turns for ease of use. I'm cool doing frequent maintenance I just want to know it's feasible to keep the machine running for more than a few years, particularly the transmission.
