Unofficial Home of Old Simplicity & Allis-Chalmers Garden Tractors

Purchased 917

A few days ago I was cosidering buying a 917, and asked for some feedback from the members here. The feedback was all positive, and I purchased the tractor. It truely is a NICE machine. I thought my Wheel Horse tractors were tops, but this surpasses them. I am amazed at how well the deck cuts, the hydro is quiet and smooth and I like the M18 much better than the onan in the Wheel Horse. I also got a 42 inch snowthrower with it and am anxious to see how it compares to the Wheel horse thrower. If it is as good as the rest of the machine I will be very pleased. Now I got to get some of those red atachments modified to work on the AC. Snowman

I love these testimonials! Once you've mowed your lawn with a Simplicity, you'll never want to use anything else... unless it's an Allis or new Massey, that is! think you'll find the snowblower does a fine job too -- I moved tons of snow last winter with mine. We had a 24" snowfall and a 28" plus lots of 6"-9" ones, all of them were pretty heavy stuff.... Just run the throttle wide open on it, and learn how big a bite to take. It'll throw snow 25-35 feet.... Enjoy your new toy! Kent
