I WONDER IF I'M THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS RUN INTO THE FACT THAT THE SIMPLICITY PRESTIGE LAWN TRACTOR WITH THE K71 TUFF-GUARD TRANSMISSION HAS AN INTERNAL OIL FILTER THAT COSTS $48.00. THIS IS MY THIRD SIMPLICITY TRACTOR AND PROBABLY MY LAST IF THEIR GOING TO CHARGE PRICES LIKE THAT FOR MAINTENANCE PARTS. THE OWNERS MANUAL SAYS TO CHANGE OUT THIS FILTER AFTER FIRST 50 HOURS AND THEN EVERY 250 HOURS THEREAFTER. ANY COMMENTS?

I understand, but this is not new for Simplicity. I have a 1986 Sun Star, with 18 hp Kohler engine. It is a great tractor, will mow anything. My point... The mower deck takes a long belt, which Simplicity will not allow to be cross referenced with other makes. I took the belt to an Auto Parts store, they matched it, and sold me one. Simplicity's price (10 years ago) about $60.00. Auto parts price.. $14.00. The kicker....The Simplicity belts lasted about 2 years. The parts store belt, once in about 10 years. Take the filter to the Parts store, Simplicity won't tell you, but some one else probably makes it.
