    Deere control problems worked out yet?

    Only control issue I've ever heard of is that the H-pattern in the e/h is a bit funky. The system is optimized for ISO, since that's by far the preferred pattern. If you run in ISO, you should be very satisfied. The demo you have on your lot is a lot more valuable than any post on this forum...

    Choosing between CTLs and would welcome any input

    Not true. Panels are easily slid out the back with the boom all the way down. Dipstick is up top with all other fluid fills with the hood open. Access to major components is by far better than most.

    daves thread

    "greasing it will have to be more of a priority than it was with the bobcat. on our bobcat, of course, all the bushings are completely gone and the wear is now on the pins and way beyond the bushings on the cylinders and such. everything is loose" This is just one of dozens of examples in this...

    Ride Control for JD 328D

    It was available dealer installed prior to the D-series. Was told it is not approved yet for the d's, but my local dealer has installed it on 2 320D's for a customer and it works fine. It's a simple system, so really any dealer that deals with ride control on any machine should be able to put...

    Deere or Hitachi minis

    also might be relevant to remember that you have a 25 year old lawn mower (junk as you say, but still going after that long unlike 90% of the mowers that age) and that parts availability for a piece that old might not be the same as for something built in the last 10 years. Also looks like...
