Agree.... my 2004 LT160 has been bulletproof. Bought it new and now has over 800 hours on the engine with just routine maintenance. Mowing a bit over an acre.
Change the oil/filter/air filter/gas filter every spring, new plug every other year or so and that is it.
The LT series are actually made by JD and are heavy duty for a lawn tractor.
