OOOPPS. I also forgot to mention that they are all metal. The

on higher priced john deere and such have plastic hoods. Go figure,
pay less for better construction!



I'd take a fiberglass mowing deck over a steel unit, no corrosion.



I've never seen a fiberglass mowing deck - but I don't think that is
what
he is refering to. I think he meant steel vs fiberglass HOOD.



I know THAT, I'm just saying plastic is not always inferior to steel as
a
construction material.

You've never seen one because it would last too long.

Nice try at saving face, but no cigar.

Not that it makes much difference - but I don't think he means
"fiberglass". I think he means one of the stronger plastics. There are
some pretty strong but they won't resist fatigue like steel will.


The OP was not talking about a mower deck. He was talking about a tractor
hood (bonnet). I suppose fiberglass would make nice fenders too, but that
doesn't address the plastic hood costing more than a metal hood.

Bill


I disagree. The OP was specifically talking about the mower deck - and
mentioned nothing about cost. But I was not responding to the OP.
