The 175's are a lot different from the 185. The 175 uses the "big stick" mechanical hi-lo whereas the 185 hi-lo is hydraulically operated and can't be feathered like the 175.

That is why you either like em or hate em I guess, but for what I do I haven't found a better machine. I could use my cab tractor, or even buy a newer fancy tractor, but my production would suffer, and I would surely tear up more equipment mowing what I mow. A lot of competition has come and gone since I started in 2001.....everyone thinks it is easy (including Bryce - LOL).
