A little grease up front can prevent a lot of trouble down the line!

Al	I bought a new Kubota L3400DT-1F with a Woods rotary cutter today. I got on the thing for the first time this afternoon and after about two minutes the mower began smoking. Now the blades won't turn at all. Does anyone have any idea what could have happened?

In this classic post from our lawn tractors/garden tractors forum entitled "Kohler vs. Briggs & Stratton engines", consumers visiting our site review and compare their experiences with these lawn tractor engines.

While John Deere is a proud brand name with a long history of quality and innovation, we have indeed had many negative comments about the models of John Deere lawn tractors sold at many retailers such as Home Depot or Lowes. In this popular thread from our lawn and garden tractors forum, the discussion gets off to a fast start between supporters and opponents of Big Green. Follow the jump below to read this interesting set of reviews and comparisons on the John Deere lawn tractors vs. Craftsman vs. Cub Cadet, Simplicity, Gravely and many other lawn and garden tractors.

In this classic thread from our tractors forum, Henry asks some simple questions about the reliability of Cub Cadet lawn tractors vs. John Deere lawn tractors based on Consumer Reports. This was back in January of 2005. This set off a chain of more than 100 posts over the course of 3 1/2 years (and still to this day new people join in on this discussion)! Read this fascinating, informative, and heated discussion between John Deere and Cub Cadet partisans by following the jump below.
