I have a couple of Dc's Both are 96 modeks.I bought one new and the other used.Both have over 4000 hrs on them.I have had to replace an engine on the one I bought new.It is getting a head gasket replaced now.The other as far as I know has the orignal motor on it.Both have served me well.I'm looking at the Dc Excaliber maybe with a 33 hp Generac and the 66 inch deck.

If you were trying to attach an image to that last post and it didn't work, try making the image a bit smaller before you upload it again.
