Pretty timely post!! I am closing on my new house this Friday, and was able to get the sellers lo boy 154 as part of the deal. It is in good mechical shape, but hat the common broken front grill (fiberglass). That 60" woods mmm will help keep my 2 acres tidy! I have always wanted a numbered lo boy because they look just like a Cadet on steroids. That is interesting about having the torque to mow at low throttle because from what I have read people say that 1st gear is too slow and 2nd too fast most of the time to mow, but being able to throttle back a bit and bring the rpm down will be good. I would like to find a snow plow for it as well.
