Traded My 2016 X754 for 2019 X754

5/5

I just traded my 2016 X754 for a new 2019 X754 - overall I am very pleased with the new tractor, except the new tractor comes with alloy wheels and there is no option for wheel weights on the rear wheels thus leaving me with wheel weights I cannot use and no option other than suitcase weights or ballast box on the back. What an engineering fubar!!! Did anyone at John Deere even consider this is a work tractor not just a pretty toy with glamorous wheels that look good - I hear its for weight requirements to lighten the tractor - really I need to do a lot of work with this machine not shine it up for looks. Please get this corrected on future models - I am in a snowy area 20 miles from the JD Horicon plant -Lots of SNOW - What a MISS!!!!! Pretty disappointed with this situation.

Pros

  • great machine

Cons

  • important options missing

Great tractor

5/5

Have just over 300 hour on my second year have owned it. Mows the lawn so nice and I have about 4 acres to mow. The wife uses this and I use a 72 inch. 3 point finish mower pulled by 2038r. Love both of these and we can mow the 4 acres in 2 hours. One problem I had was putting on the deck, the rear tires would spin on the deck when the front wheels were at the front of the deck trying to come up on the deck. Had to get a little run at it but this makes it hard to makes sure the auto connect is lined up.

Pros

  • easy to run
  • love the diesel
  • no problems

Cons

  • little hard getting the deck installed

High quality machine, runs very strong

5/5

Got this X754 tractor new in mid June. Has 60" HC deck. Ran it to 20-hrs & did a break-in oil & filter change on the motor and kept Cutting. It's a very strong machine, does everything well. I have the plow & lift/angle kit for snow plowing. Installed rear wheel spacers to gain width & stability on some very angled hills. It's a winner & no heat issues in 95 degree days because, ....... I watch the temperature gauge & cleaned the screen filters, no issues. Thanks John Deere for another great lawn & garden care tractor!!

Pros

  • powerful & well built machine
  • awesome digital owners manual covers all the needs

Cons

  • on steep lawn turning sharply causes lawn turfing

Overheating Fixed

5/5

This is the best lawn tractor I have ever owned and at age 70 I've had many lawn tractors to compare it to. I could not have said that when I first purchased the X754 because it would constantly overheat. John Deere now has a fix for this problem. The part number for my particular mower (62 inch deck) is AM13376. I mow two acreages taking about 5 hours. Now I can mow both acreages without stopping to clean the screens.

Too many problems, poor quality

1/5

5 year warranty doesn't mean much. Had this less than 2 years, a little over 240 hours. Just got a bill for almost $1500 to repair the deck hanger and mechanism. I was told the reason it wasn't covered was because the gauge wheels were running on the ground. Maybe they were on the ground because the hanger parts were worn out. Funny that Deere had a repair kit for this issue. Had a similar issue with a 1025R. Perhaps the tractors aren't built to handle the 60" deck. And then the plastic dash has cracked. For the price, it should be built better.

Pros

  • engine

Cons

  • quality
  • price
  • company support

What a Great Machine

5/5

THis is by far the top of the line with regards to lawn and garden tractors, I have owned many John Deeres 400s and 700s and some competitors over the years and the X754 meets all my needs spring, summer , fall and winter. Easy to use - reliable and a lot of bang for the buck - nothing seems to stop it. This is my second one because of the great trade value and the dealer gave me a good deal, I was able to move to a new one after a few years. I love the all wheel steering and diesel engine. Some minor quality issues but overall easily fixed when I contacted the dealer. (Decals came off, Headlights not connected and a loose wiring harness).

Pros

  • easy to use
  • awesome power and ride
  • all wheel steering

Cons

  • mower deck needs wheels that are turnable for stor
  • manuals could be better written
  • drive over feature for deck needs refinement but w
  • seat back cracked for no reason
