How do engine and transmission life compare?

What's the time between overhauls for the 100 Series lawn tractors compared
to the x700s? I'm guessing 1800 hours on the 100 Series, 2200 on the X700s.
And what's projected transmission life on these tractors?

My dad just had a 420 transmission repaired after only 1,500hrs. Too much vibration under a load and not enough power. The charge pump shaft was was worn and needed to be replaced. The mechanic said it should have lasted longer. Someone in the family was handling it harshly I guess(not me!).
