I pulled the trigger 4years ago and I have YT48DXLS FABRICATED DECK. and I am very pleased with my machine. Wet ,up hill, down hill runs great I am at 300 hrs now and loving the auto slip differential. Cuts great machine is strong and very reliable.
I just got the deluxe model of this. the only difference is the deck is alot stronger and comes w/ a life time warranty and the tires are a tad bigger. I was a john Deere man but over the past year i slowly went from them to Husqvarna. We now have a Husqvarna push mower, weed whacker and a 42LS deluxe rider. I only used it for about 90 minutes and i love it! My john Deere was about 16 years old and i had the engine rebuilt, it was also a Kohler engine like this is. But it was time to get a new rider, the John Deere's deck was getting loose and I have no idea how to weld and the guy told me it would be cheaper to get a new one. I was about to get the same exact model and when i asked what was the difference between the deluxe i found out it is the same exact thing but the deck is ALOT stronger and comes w/ lifetime warranty. The tires are also a tad bigger. I plan on this rider lasting me 15 years. The John Deere was my dads so this is my first real rider. It is funny when I was a kid i hated to mow the lawn and i look forward to it :P
Well, once the snow melts, I'll do another review. The only negative is the seat material cracked. I didn't like the plastic, rigid feel of the material on the seat from day one. Both rubber bumper pads on the bumper fell off, have to silicone them back on.. I used it all last summer (2017) with the mulch blade / kit on, no bags, no discharge, worked fine... About 60 hours on her now...
Dave Graziano Almost at 8 hours, no issues at all. Just bought 18 cu. ft. cart. just remember to make sure tire pressure is at 10 lbs. or less. Mine was at 20 lbs. from the dealer, lowered it to 8 lbs. for a much NOTICEABLE softer ride, I was bouncing all over. Good luck, and remember, like buying a car, negotiate a better price.

The Kohler 7000 series are based on the Kohler Command Pro commercial Engine not the Courage
How about an update on how it's holding together?
Good deal on the financing bundle. All things I need and for less than a comparable John Deere
What is the Product # of the upper and lower chute for the bagger? Or bagger model.

Any updates on the mower is she holding up?????
I will post video of hills, wet grass, and "holding up" in a few days. Slow PC + DSL (frontier communications ugh) = :(
How is the new tractor treating you. I am going to look at one this weekend. Any more input would be great. Thanks Dave Graziano

+MrBackyardMechanic i saw how the triple charge works in a video husqvarna posted
How can one do a review if they just got it but, haven't used it, yet? All this info can be gotten from a sales person.
Gas gauge is useless after a while you can’t see the gas level through the cheap plastic
where is the review of the Husqvarna in slopes?
Slopes=Bad for all riders
Junk transmission. ...hope it's running after 200 hours .
