I had a B7500HSD sold it about 3 years ago bought it new in 99. I've had sellers remorse ever since. 5' mower cut very well a little low on power in heavy grass but easy to mow with. FEL didn't disappoint. Had rear tires loaded and fronts with chains year round. Have a lot of steep and side hill mowing, chains kept front end from sliding and rarely spun a tire. I only sold it to get a larger tractor, wished I could have kept it. I had impliments' back blade 7', box blade 5',stone rake 7' and brush hog 5', post hole auger which were all to big but handled them pretty well.
No real issues other than normal wear, tear and routine maintenance. Had a hard time keeping it cool when mowing it would fill the fine screen in the grill quickly, changed that out for coarser one and had to keep the radiator blown out good.
It had 1400 hrs on it when it was sold and gave no indication of weakening. The current owner loves it and won't sell it back to me.
