A good friend rolled his JD 445. He was not injured. The tractor did run for a time while upside down. It locked the motor. A short block is no longer available and was $2800 at last pricing. Fellow has one advertised as "low" hours. Then when you read the actual ad it say that the hours are 1500+. That is not low hours for a garden tractor to me. Do you think 1500 hours is low hours on a garden tractor.
PS the parts needed add up to over $3500. His mower is worth maybe $3000. I have tried to talking him into just trading his in as a parts machine but he will not even talk about it. He is going to end up with a repair bill that is as high as he could have bought a newer garden tractor for. That makes zero sense to me. He did not buy the current mower new it was ten years old when he bought it. So why not just move up for the same money????
So I would guess two different examples of differing opinions. LOL I had not even thought about the owner's view in those terms until I started this post.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
