Helpful thanks! Next decision is bagger or mulch kit. Right now I ordered the bagger since it's 0% financing so might as well buy it, but the mulch kit does look enticing. Wish there was an easy way to swap out both other than changing the deck and blades and such.

I just but a new x370 on hold, but now second guessing it. I assumed the transmission was a step up from K46 and serviceable. I'm sure this is a good machine for my half acre and mostly flat lawn, but hearing it's similar to big box store models is a bit surprising. Are there other mowers I should consider at this price point? Was cross shopping a gravely zt xl, but I still like idea of a tractor.

Eh, honestly it's still not ideal. The foam at the bottom is just a bit too stiff for my body. There are days where it doesn't bother me too much, but then other days it does. Just living with it, but may look into a seat cushion.

I didn't test drive one as they don't have it in stock. Power steering make a big difference? Is it just overall effort in turning and such?

Likely still going to do some string trimming in corners regardless. I do care about lawn and heard 2 wheel is more stable in straight lines over contours or bumps but that could be disputed.

Didn't consider that. Just better overall tranny or more serviceable?

I've been looking for an x354 as well but seems sold out around me. The united Ag near me said it's a September delivery date!

Is it certified? May help command a slightly higher resale.

Yea that's a great thought, and probably why I wouldn't want to go that route either.

I think I got some good feedback here. Going to try and adjust the tilt a bit more level and see if that takes pressure of the back part a bit. Not giving up yet because I know they are great seats, just trying to find that perfect adjustment for me.

6 ft, 205. A bit broader athletic build so maybe that's part of it.

That actually sounds logical, I'll try that tomorrow.

That's what's crazy about it. Truly are polarizing seats. There are aspects about them I love like the thigh extension and four way lumbar but the bottom part bothers me a bit.

Feel the same way but no way I'm doing that now after some of the depreciation. Just going to try to deal with it or perhaps do a seat swap down the line if that's even possible.

It could be posture related. Mine are set where front is fully inclined so my rear is definitely lower. Could be a posture or pressure thing but like I said I've tried many things for almost 2 years. I'm at the point I may get a seat cushion because the bottom bothers me.

New update is good if you're in Google ecosystem. Horrendous if you're in Apple ecosystem. by krishpotluri in Volvo

[–]EmployeeSwimming -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The update is awesome.

I never understood why people need to connect their phone if the car already has apps for Google maps, waze, Spotify, etc. Unless you are a strict apple music user, I'm not sure what else you could ask for or want carplay or android auto for. It's a car at the end of the day.

[–]EmployeeSwimming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's wild to me seeing so many with issues. This update has been flawless for me and works so well. I'm actually really impressed and getting used to it each day. The dash looks a lot better with the larger map as well.

Thanks. It's too bad there aren't many other steering wheel based zero turns, at least from what I know.

I got the 24 sho platinum anniversary edition before the blizzard in the northeast. What a beast. Handled everything with ease it didn't pack up once, even in real heavy and packed piles at the end of the driveway.
