This is a 2001 John Deere LX279 with a Kawasaki liquid cooled 17.5hp engine. It has been my personal mower for the past ten years. Everything works as it should. New PTO clutch last year. Every spring it gets a complete tune up with a synthetic oil change. There is no hour meter so I don't know that information but I can tell you that for the last ten years it has mowed a quarter acre lot. The price is firm. I have two mowers for sale and whatever one sells, I'll be happy keeping the other one. Best to text. Could use a good wash and wax. It is the mower I presently use for my property, so it won't get it's next tune up and oil change til next spring. It's not ready for either one right now. Mulches awesome!
