Considering this unit. Owner states it is in good condition, used < 5 times I am told.
What do you feel is a fair price?
Are there any issues I should be aware of?
Anything specific to check when looking at it?
Reviews have stated it is tough to steer/ handle. Anyone with first hand experience? True, false?

Thank you.

Ok, it's just what the trigger steering is called.
Thank you!

Just read the JD1330 thread, the reviews sound as good as it looks.

decisions-decisions!!!!

Could anyone explain a little how the free wheel steering works?
I am in the market and am swaying wildly from a single stage Toro to the 825, 1028, some Ariens and I even looked at the JD 3330.
I'm considering a 2005 Ariens ST 8526 LE; 932105 but the reviews I have read complained about the handling/ steering being tough.
My train of though is the simpler the better, the less to break and maintain. The last thing anyone wants is to have a malfunction while clearing after a storm.
I live in Harford County, MD., just above the Chesapeake Bay. we don't get a lot of snow, but this last year set records.

Thank you,
Jeff
