Hey guys! Being new to the club, and fairly new to garden tractors and mowers, can you help me out with some of the abbreviations you are using? I assume anything gb is gear box, but beyond that I am ignorant. Help!! Steve

"IMHO - In my honest opinion (not all opinions are honest I guess)" IHMO can also mean "In my humble opinion".

not really an abbreviation but for new people it would be nice to define what a "large frame" means. That was confusing to me at first. I thought it meant the PowerMax class. -Don

One other clarification - "Welcome to the SITE" is appropriate for this initial thread starter since CLUB membership and hence a "Welcome to the Club", requires payment of dues.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
