Other than that I can tell you I have personally ran both, and found them to be really comparable in terms of quality. Most trailers here haul Exmark, but I believe that is probably the same across the board. They are the Kleenex of the lawn care world.

Where does him asking about an opinion of a mower constitute "old timers" calling him a moron. Personally I've never seen that on this forum anywhere. We all give our opinions, some louder than others. But everything is just that, an opinion. overall your "warning" this new user that people on here are not helpful and just provide snotty answers, which sure isn't the case

He's all bent out of shape because no one told him to go buy a cub cadet tank and that they were best mower on the planet. Everyone said they were junk. In the mean time someone else bought. Which IMO is a blessing in disguise.

Good way to promote the site. Tell new ones that us old farts call them morons.

Please post some examples of this kind of behavior from the old timers (If you can). I want to make sure to avoid those guys when I can.

I like them both, and I run exmark. To me JD parts are more expensive and sometimes certain parts are only available threw JD.

No I agree that is not the case for a lot of members on here. However, being new to the business I have searched through a ton of threads where new users are asking good questions about starting up etc. only to have a lot of responses that are rude and inconsiderate. As a whole the community is great and helps out but I am just saying at first it can be somewhat disheartening when you get replies that seem to put your business down. It was a warning so that a newb realizes that you have to let some comments roll off.
