The 620 gets my vote Fred, but that's the only AC lawn tractor I've used!

| That's a tough one we talking past or present. We have most all yellow and orange garden tractors. Growing up I used a early B10 and graduated up to a 710. Out of all the yellows and orange ones its them two and if I have to pick I say the B10, I think i like how the Briggs rain over kohler but now a days I kinda like our 912 H,s with electric lifts. |

My favorite was my 716H. That was my snow plow Tractor that had a bored and modified 16HP Kohler in it. Boy, could that dude push some snow! Loved fuel with that modified engine, but could push 14" of wet snow all the way down our long driveway and across the street without even slowin' down. Amazing machine. Even the wife liked it especially with the electric lift. I'm building another 716H but not for plowing. This one is for fun! Forgot to mention, the wife loves her B110 that we got from Eddie/IL. Another neat Tractor! Steve@B&B ------------- 39'RC, 43'WC, 48'B, 49'G, 50'WF, 65 Big 10, 67'B-110, 75'716H, 2-620's, & a Motorhead wife |

| 312H. Good hydrostatic, enough power for a 42" deck. Plus, it looked cool like the big Allis's at the time. |

I like my Agco 918 with power steering and 48' mower and 42' blower. I've had a 212 a 712, 3 912's but the 918 beats them all hands down. So much more power with the 18 horse v-twin and the power steering is great. |

Has to be my first, my B110 with big ags. Thing is just awesome with a tiller, plow, and 46" snow blade. Second would be my B10. It needs a snow blower in the worst way. I'd love to have a B112 too. With a vari speed or high/lo. AaronSEIA |

My B110. It's a beast and I haven't even got around to restoring it yet. A close 2nd would be our old early AC 608. I spent many hours and miles on it as a kid-mowed a lot of lawn. Also waiting to be restored if I could stop using it long enough. ------------- "My name is Lionel and I'm an Allisoholic" |

| My dad says a strait 3speed B-10 with tire chains is a tank. But the 900s operate better. |

Oh boy...I'm torn between the classic appeal of the old footdraggers, and the comfort, power and ease of use of a late model machine. I'm kinda split...

Even though the bigger machines and later ones may have more function, for me there's nothing quite like driving around my B-110. ------------- 10 various B-series garden tractors, AC Homesteader8, 416 hydro,710 gt, 914, 916H, 917H, 920D, and many misc attachments |

| I like the B110, simple is better 3 speed short tractor and I just like the looks of the flat hood. I have had them all, but that's my personal vote all of the yellows were great and way ahead of JD ,CC Jac/ford and anything else of the day. Cal in Ctm |

X2 Especially with power steering (or a Simplicity 7790). It's compact and has hydraulic lift, hydrostatic drive, easy steering, and lots of attachments available. ------------- Mark B10 Allis, 917 Allis, 7116 Simplicity, 7790 Simplicity Diesel, GTH-L Simplicity Ignorance is curable-----stupidity is not. |
