My good friend had a 40 hp John Deere, about a 2005 model or so, we rib each other a bit. He had his for his landscaping company and used it mainly for mowing and a little loader work for about 3-4 years.

Some complaints for a 50 hp MF compact too, fast but weak loader, very sensitive hydro pedal, hard cold starting.
