Beat into the ground and back. Had the govenor adjusted once. Replaced the scraper bar. Problems? No. Recommened it? No. The build quality is fine. The component quality is a little iffy. Everything is thin or small. If something breaks that is more than a cable, shear pin, or scraper bar. Marty is getting a PM to meet me at the Delaware line for a freebie. Minds out of the gutter please.

Why can't the readers decide if something is productive? Why do we need a central authority figure telling us what we do or do not want to read? I have nothing against anyone posting here, so the following is not a dig at the originator of the topic, but why is the topic " Boy, i wish there was some more snow..... :)" productive, and this one is not? At least here I found out about some old MTD's and heard about their build quality. Over on that topic, it was just people wishing for more snow. I chose not to read that topic after the first two posts because it wasn't productive for me. But for others, it could be a very productive use of their time. Everyone is different, so let the readers decide. Damn - there's my libertarian side coming out again " Live and let live". --SnowRemover "The King is dead, long live the King"
