I can't find it now, but there was a guy a few weeks back who had a lot of trouble with his brand new tractor but I don't recall what model he bought. My opinion is your 2166 is probably a better machine.

Thanks for responding, yeah I really like my old 2166 but it's getting to the point that the more I have to put into would be well on my way into a new machine. I have patched & painted the deck twice in 14 years & a new shell is over $400.00. Now the motor is needing some attention, hopefully it's not too major. I read the post with the guy having trouble and unless I am mistaken he had bought a used XT1. Cub lists some of those with the Kohler Courage engine which seam to be trouble prone from the get go. I would hope the XT3 Kohler Command Horizontal like in mine would be light years ahead in durability, but I could be wrong. Anyway thanks again for responding.
