My neighbor, a lady drippin' wet about 107, handles a 4WD 1710 with FEL like a champ. Over the years she's had it, it's been terrific. For around 25HP, using the Shibaura 3 cylinder engine, it really has some snot. In our incredible snows this past winter, it pushed through in 4 wheel remarkably well.

Yes, 5 grand is really, really good on this unit. I think you've picked a winner.
