One thing I will say, the Warner electric actuator On the XT3 GSX is a Bit Faster Than the Thompson actuator as far as raising and lowering Front Blade & Deck.
But I still wish MTD had used an electric over Hydraulic actuator or even a Hydraulic cylinder On the XT3 GSX model for Lift, Then You Could have had the OEM blower raised and Lower By the Onboard Lift system.
I don't mind the electronic Power steering on it. Oh, the Other thing, I wish they had used a Pedal for the Diff/lock instead of a Lever. I tried the diff/lock, it is nice, haven't really needed it though. I think those two changes would have made the XT3 GSX an even better seller than it was. Had they Made the Cast Iron case for the Transmission in the USA, though. I think they would still be in production. The issue was getting the cases from China these last few years. I was Hoping they would just go to an aluminum transmission case and continue the XT3 series.
