I think the John Deere c62 looks like a really good buy. I have done some reading on that model and it seems to be well made. I worry about parts or service for it down the road though. Thoughts?
I really like the thought of a 346XP or 359 too but the 359 is a tad out of my price range.
I also lean a little toward the Stihl MS270 since I have had good experience with that store. The Stihl dealer is a John Deere shop and the same place I bought my lawn tractor from. The tractor broke down once and they came and picked it up, made the repairs, and then brought it back to me charge free.
Although the local Husky shop has a good reputation as well. I only wish my uncle didn't live 800 miles away.... I'd be on his doorstep every night begging for the 359 at cost. lol
