My xt1 has fixed 100 acres in my ranch and does a perfect job. My property never looked better. I got my cadet like 2 yrs ago and now I have 60 hrs did a full tuneup at 50 hrs. I love it
Lemme tell ya something. STAY AWAY FROM ANYTHING CALLED YARDMAX! Chinese junk! I bought a ‘22 around 5-15-23 and used it only about 5-6 times. It is made with extremely cheap components. The plastic knobs for closing and locking the handle broke off. The height adjustment broke off. The front wheel broke as I was using it and the axle came out off place. The plastic for the undercarriage cracked in two requiring its complete removal. That cover the belt and pulleys for the self propel assembly. Needles to say, that can no longer by used. Surprising no engine issues (yet) and it will cut serious grass-provided you have patching up skills. THIS POS IS CHEAP FOR A REASON AND YOU WILL GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR!
The problem is the "American" stuff, that is still made in "Foreign" Countries is also made with "cheap" stuff; however, the "American" stuff is VERY EXPENSIVE and has a much weaker engine and only lasts four years before it stops working. My last two mowers from Snapper and Cub Cadet both ended up lasting only four years. I don't have the money for this. I'm stuck buying the Yardmax at this point, because of the attitude that I know from the start that no mower out there is going to last long. "Made in America" previously meant something special.
I guess we're not going to mention the Check Engine Light, on solid, that could be minor, it could be major, and if not addressed soon, can and mostly likely will lead to major expenses down the road, in my state this would fail the state smog test, and the seller is responsible for it passing. Sad such an otherwise nice camper van would be neglected her required maintenance. Needless to say, this can and should be used when negotiating the sale, any used vehicle buyer should have a reliable technician do a thorough inspection prior to purchase.
At 0.55 it looks as if the pin block has come severely loose from the front panel. there seems to be a huge gap. Maybe that is the cause of the fast detuning. It sounds as if it has gone severely flat.
I wish I could have bought one of these trucks brand new back in that era. Loved the look of the exterior, the front was really sharp. The interior was very comfortable and the green backlighting for the gauges was cool. I agree with the guy driving, of all the vehicles I have driven with manual transmissions, these trucks had one of the smoothest shifting transmissions ever.
back when ford still had integraty.now they want 80k for a recall special.& just wait till your warrenty expires.you get to foot the 2000 buck bill every 4 months until you sell it.
