I have recently purchased a home on just over an acre of lawn with a big driveway (3 - 4 tennis courts in area). I plan on mowing, snow clearing and some pretty extensive landscaping. A 755 is overkill, but that's the kind of guy I am and I figured a bucket would save alot of time during landscaping chores. I recently found a '89 755 with 60" belly mower and a loader for $11K, it has about 850 hours on it. Here are my questions:1) Does the above seem like a good price?2) Is a loader a viable tool for snow clearing.3) If I wanted to add a grass / leaf collection system like the hydo-dumper on the 4000 series, is such an animal available for the 755?I have experience with large garden tractors, but this would be my first jaunt into the compact utility arena.Thanks,-- Greg

Greg, I just sold my 755 in July and bought a 4700. My 755 was a 1988 w/800 hrs. #52 loader w/ a new 60" bucket, 60" JD belly mower, JD 413 rotary mower (bush hog) it was in exc. cond. and I got $11,200. Your price is in the ball park. You don't say what size loader it has or what condition it is in and that would make alot of diff. The loader is a good tool for snow removal, not as good as a blade or blower but it is MUCH better than shoveling. I have never owned a leaf/grass collection system but my local JD dealer was selling a 755 with one on it at the same time I was selling my 755, so they do make'm. If you need anymore info. just e-mail me or post here. David ....

The 755 is a great machine. I bought one two years ago and have had zero problems and have used it hard. Make sure this unit has 4wd. The 755 does not come standard with this option. For what you plan on using this tractor for you will need it. Good luck Todd. ....
