wh5208speed 645 #1 Posted October 3, 2014 Picked up a real nice 522Xi. These models are really starting to grow on me Thad (Ohio) 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JERSEYHAWG / Glenn 4,497 #2 Posted October 3, 2014 (edited) Thad. Really nice. Best of luck. What size deck is that? Here's mine next to my 416. Let's here how you like it. Edit: Re deck. Mine is small. 44" your deck looks bigger. Glenn Edited October 3, 2014 by JERSEYHAWG / Glenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh5208speed 645 #3 Posted October 3, 2014 It is a 60" deck, which I have always liked. They are just so stinking heavy though Thad 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
546cowboy 301 #4 Posted October 3, 2014 Yes they are heavy ( 300+ lbs. ) but nothing cuts like one. I have had two 520H's with 60" decks and boy did they mow nice and say what you will, with a 20 horse Onan, they are unbeatable for a tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken B 3,164 #8 Posted October 3, 2014 That looks to be real nice! These tractors are starting to really grow on me. I have been reading a lot of good things about them, it seems most people that own them really like them. If I can get by my distaste of the box store tractor look of the front head lights I just might own one someday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forest Road 594 #9 Posted October 3, 2014 Welcome to the club! Mine has 1100 hours w an FEL. These tractors are so well built its not fare to compare them to our old tried and true lil red tractors. Ken if you buy one. I promise it'll be your favorite. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shallowwatersailor 3,213 #11 Posted October 3, 2014 That is a nice looking tractor. With the hubcaps on, it could be poising for a brochure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Power steering, hi low range, tilt wheel, cruise control. But best of all,,, a real working beast. Did I forget to say COMFY, LOL. Real power. I had to get by the looks myself, know what you mean there. Just try one, bet you sell another tractor or 2 to stuff one in your shop. Glenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snowmobileaddict 403 #17 Posted October 6, 2014 Best mower and leaf vac I've ever owned. These are great machines and do the Wheel Horse brand justice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
