Looking at a G6200 this evening. Info/opinions?

Later this evening I will be checking out this G6200:

It looks pretty clean but I don't know a whole lot about them. I don't know if it has the optional rear PTO setup, but I'm guessing not, which is a bummer since I'd like to run a tiller on it, but $1200 seems like a good deal even with the higher hours as long as it runs well and doesn't have any blow-by.

I'm assuming these tractors are shaft driven? Is it heavy duty as far as garden tractors go?

I ended up buying it, got it for $1100. Will post pictures soon.

I tried to post before you bought it...but my dang internet (satellite) was under a massive cloud and wouldn't get out.
The good news is I was going to say that that is a good model and they sell for $2k+ normally, so I'd say you got it for a good price!

Well I feel a LITTLE better hearing that considering it might have a bad hydrostatic unit lol. If the hydro is bad, then I guess I just have a donor diesel engine for something else.
