Hi all. I'm new to the forum. My name is Ron. I've owned several different brands of mowers over the years, Wheel Horse, Snapper, Massy Ferguson, MTD, Cub Cadet, and now a Husqvarna. I bought my Husky about 3 weeks ago and so far I like it. It is a 2554 model with a 25hp Kohler engine. I've had likes and dislikes with all of them but for the most part they have been good to me. I currently mow a little over an acre every week and in the past I mowed a lot more. I'm 66 years old and starting to slow down. Thanks for accepting me as a new member and I look forward to exchanging a lot of good information in the future.
