Oh don't worry the sorrow will fade away pretty quik !
I gave away my last push mower over a year ago and haven't missed it yet .
Have you noticed yet there is alot more gas in the tank than what the fuel gauge shows ?

 

Time Flys....we are now 550k down the road since I bought the truck in Sept of 2017 and went on a overhaul and component replacement rampage .
In the last couple months .
All new shoes , drums , cans and slack adjusters .
All new shocks .
All new air bags .
All new hoses , hangers and lite cord out the back of the cab .
Rebuilt the air dryer .
Next up will be new oil in all the boxes again and should be up to date on things ..apu all gone thru too including the the generater and updates .
I've become a big believer in proactive component replacement and strict maintenance intervals long before what oems recommend, at 1 million 50k its still tight , clean and looks good and rarely have a breakdown .
I also think I've dispelled the myth that cascadias are junk and in fact think most trucks are beat and undermaintained .

 

I will also add that what I did was blind luck considering
the freight market and used truck Market between 2017 and now...between the purchase price , the apu and the overhaul I financed 84k , no way I'd do that now .

 

I haven't decided yet and have 3 years to do it but if I trade the x330 a year before the warranty is up I will definitely upgrade to a x380 with hydro deck lift and power steering.
But at the end of the first year of the mowing season with 18 hours on it its probably unlikely.
