Wow this is a great site! I am in the market for a used riding mower. I'm looking at a 1998 John Deere LX173 15 hp Kohler with bagger and a Cub Cadet 2135 with a 16 hp vanguard v-twin,hydro,mulching kit and 220 hours. Both have 38" decks. The JD is asking 1000, but is willing to take 750 and the Cub is asking 800 and willing to take 650. Any advice on either one of these units would be much appreciated. The JD might need the carb cleaned as it sat last year but it has been routinely maintained up until that point. The cub is supposedly ready to go. I am no mechanic so any riding mower advice would be a great help.
Thanks,
Chase
