anyone have one? I say on one at Lowes teh other day. It seems OK. The attachments don't seem as rugged as the ones on my GT, but then again, they are LT, not GT...

My dad has either a L130 or L135.. He really likes it.. it cuts very well, but quite noisy IMHO.. I borrowed it to aerate my yard and do some clean up work and it runs good.. His is older and I think he got the Kohler engine instead of the B&S..

I had a Scotts L2548. Same as a 155C I think. It was a great tractor. Comfortable, maneuverable, cut great and had a bagger too. I never had a problem with it. After about 300 hours, I took the deck off, replaced the spindle bearings, drilled and installed grease fittings on them and changed the belt. Towed some good loads with it too. The Briggs 25 HP V-twin is loud but so what? It's a tractor. I put in an ear plug and go mowin. I will say that the pulleys underneath for the drive belt are only good for 300 hours and the same with the drive belt. I couldn't stand the RIO so I just pulled the plug on the tranny reverse sense switch and tied it up.
