"JD X500 multi-terrain tractor- 25H.P.-Differential lock-wet disk brakes" I'm itching for some green, maybe so I can talk about them from first hand experience, maybe because some have hydraulic remotes, differential rears, disk brakes and REAL cabs! It's certainly not because of the green! Much prefer red and orange! So here's a picture of a vertical shaft, which for years was a prominent "No!" in my check list for what's a good tractor, but now that my WH 264H has changed my mind, why wouldn't the JD X500 be a good choice? Not sure what "multi-terrain" means... Didn't see anything about PS but maybe it does. (Further review suggests no PS!) I'm not looking to buy this unit. No hitch of any kind on this unit and I don't need another mower, but I'm putting more focus on the fact that it's a vertical shaft and thinking "So!" I'm not asking about the X500 specifically, just that maybe I should be less prejudiced against vertical shafts. Anyone with first hand experience? Any reason why a vertical shaft can't be used in a durable GT? And by the way, why are vertical shaft engines cheaper!

My main reason for joining up here is due to the recently acquired Wheel Horse RJ, however for the past 27 years I have been collecting John Deere's. My collection consists mostly of the round fender 110's and 112's, but I do have a couple of flat fender 120's, 140's, and a 110. My biggest goal has finally been accomplished back in 2009, and that was completing the entire round fender collection, meaning I now have all 5 years and all 11 models made throughout the 5 years that these round fender have been produced. I also have numerous attachments and accessories for these old machines as well as all of the tire types, sizes and brands made from 1963 through 1967. They take up a lot of room when it comes to storing them all, but somehow I'm always finding a way to squeeze in another one. I don't have pictures of the entire collection yet, and they aren't all restored yet either, but I recently started unloading the garage so that I could update the collection for insurance reasons, so here are some pictures of what I have out currently: 1963 110 1964 110 1965 110 1966 110 1966 110H 1966 112 1966 112H 1967 110 1967 110H 1967 112 1967 112H Second 1963 110 Second 1965 110 Second 1966 110 Third 1966 110 Second 1967 110 1967 60 1969 60: 1971 70: 1973 70 1974 70 1970 120 1970 140H3 1973 110
