oh yea i found out toro bought out wheel horse and if you notice the weights say wheel horse/toro or something like that on them - my neighbor pointed that out for me, the equivalent is a Toro 520xi from my research, they made these for new holland. I had the unit before these in the FORD version. it was made by shibaru with a diesel engine on it. In my opinion it was built much heavier. This one has power steering, hydraulic lift, dual range hydro, speed sensitive steering, and a water cooled 20hp kawasaki. Its sitting at 818 hours. I liked the GT75 I had better, totally different feel than this one but being built so much better even at 20 yrs old it will likely outlast the kids mowing they need to do. I like my lil deere. It cuts better and I have a bagger for it for clippings for things which is handy.

i dont knwo much about the pulling other than dad has an old cub cadet my nephew used to pull with, its got cut tires, 10 or 12 hp kohler thinking i might get my gson interested in it but i have yet to see any with a hydro used for pulling - not sure why ? they always lose traction before they run out of power in my experience watching them, i think he pulled in the 750 and 850 classes they go REALLY SLOW with a speed limit like 2mph

neighbors had a well like that on their property, their grandsons now in their 40s -50s inherited the place and called dad and I to go over n cover the well - it was just like that one, 4 to 5 footish across, took the old 400 over and pushed several big logs over it that were not movable w/out equipment - the house has since been demolished and the well filled up with debris. i was amazed at the craftsmanship of the stone work and the sheer size and water in it , probably 20 to 30 foot id guess - the porch of the old house was built over teh top of teh well so they could just bring water up thru the porch to bring into the house - my great gma/gpa and aunt/uncles both had their homes built over their wells, both had pumps in the kitchens up thru the countertops. My folks have 4 wells on our home place all tile cased tho. One dug with horses that I got to see done/experience. We lived on well water till the 80s when rural water came thru, we hooked on but gma n gpa never did. dad drops a floating pump down a couple of them to water his garden with now days
