I mow and maintain 4 acres with an S240, 48" deck. Takes about an hour per acre. I have jumped out the RIO switch (simple jumper that can be removed to put back to factory) but not the seat switch. After a year I am happy with the machine. I did add a ball hitch as well to allow towing my 5'x10' trailer when cutting large limbs and carting to a burn pile. Also bought a dump cart for utility purposes. Not a JD (cost) but found at Amazon. Changed the headlights to LED for a couple of bucks. Summers are long light here in NW Indiana but during winter, gets dark early.
