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.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
