I've decided what i want to buy. the problem is when. I went to the local John Deere dealer and decided on the JD X300. He still has them on hand at this time of year. problem is, he said in all honesty He would question me buying it for one or two last mows of the season where we live, only to then put it in my shed for the winter. I probably wouldn't bring it out again until May. He thought it would be a shame to have my tractor burning up warranty time for 6 months after only a couple of mows. I may wait until spring, but will probably get the JD X300.

Thanks for your help.
