Mine is worth it to me. I have a 757 that has been great so far.
After shopping for a ZTR, I decided that there are many high quality brands and mowers in the category that would serve me well. I made the decision to buy the Deere based on the dealership. I bought it from the place in a neighboring town instead of the one closest to me, because I liked them and thought they were the most professional, honest, and helpful of all of the places I spoke with.
I am actually considering buying a garden tractor now too, even though I have a CUT and a ZTR. I am not sure if I really need one but I am trying hard to rationalize that idea. :laughing:
