I am about to purchase a brand new Sears lawn tractor, Craftsman 20HP with a
42" mower deck for $1200.00 (US) It is a Briggs and Stratton twin cylinder
overhead valve engine. I have just less then 1 acre of land, I know this is
much more then I need but sounds like a great deal.

Just wondering if anyone may have good or bad experience with Sears tractors
or the same engine. It is a 6 speed transmission. Sears is having a
special for $1200.00.

Any feedback on this tractor or even any other Sears Lawn tractors would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Mike


I've got an old David Bradley walkin' tractor, which is an old Sears
brand. It's about the same age as I am, and it's still going strong --
not the original engine, obviously. It has a 5 HP briggs engine on it
now, so the hood wouln't fit even if I still had it.

Probably doesn't help you much, but it's fun to talk about. :-)
