Gr 2120 arrived

[stutrac]

well it arrived today while I was at work drove it around tried the bagger so far so good, can not wait till the grass grows to try, tractor in storage till my BX is sold I would love to keep both BX and Gr but no storage and will be down sizing our home more reviews to come as soon as I have more hrs on it, I like the Gr due to the weight,and the 21hp seems a lot quieter then my BX, the BX leaves ruts on my lawn and the Gr is lighter and easy to go around tight spots, the BX takes a few times to turn to make a tight fit around trees but I have all positive things to say about my BX, but it is used at a mower 98% or the time so I hope to sell in the next week or so, I will use my GR..pics to come soon

I'm interested to hear your feedback on the GR2120, esp how it handles slopes w/the AWD. When my old craftsman finally gives out I will probably be looking at one.

I ordered a new GR2120, to replace the G1800S I've enjoyed for 20 seasons now.

The new machine is scheduled for delivery the day after tomorrow.

I purchased the GR2120 with the option to extend the warranty to four years, after reading about all the issues this model had, when it was first introduced. I had very few problems with my G1800S until the last year or so, expected for a machine with 18+ years on it. The GR2120 seems like it has a lot more features, much more going on with the hydrostat, etc. hence my decision on the extended warranty. I am also reaching my "golden years", so working on the machine (beyond oil changes and swapping out mower blades) is more in my past.

Congrats on the new machine Stutrac!

Bought a GR2120 in 2015 with 35 Hrs on it, had Midstate Tractor in Middletown install a snowblower and snow plow quick connect and joystick control (hydro up and down and electric side to side and up/down chute control for blower, plow is up/down only...lift a lever to move it side to side.

Keep up with maintenance on it and the GR2120 will keep going for a long time.

I decided not to get a snowblower the $3400 in cost does not make me worth it, I have a snow blower now but if I buy aouther one I will but a Honda,

If you would want to "mix and match", I have an "as New" G2546B surplus to my needs.

You would need to source all the drive and attachment hardware. That is the "mix and match part"
I have no idea about the cost of those components.

I'm in S Vt, so not far.
