I suppose after 15 to 20 years most equipment will need to be restored to further its life. That's part of the fun!
Well, in my previous house, I didn't have a heated Garage or Barn/Shed. I have a Zero turn now, so there is no need to mow with them Now But I don't have any trailer Queens except for the Cub Cadet Original & 60 RER Plus a Simplicity Wonder Boy and JD Sabre Most tractors I restore them enough to be used. With Mowing, it really doesn't matter what the Grass conditions are; Grass will get In places even if the Grass is dry. Even after blowing it off after each use, grass still gets Into places.

But when You Have this Many Machines. You really can keep them Pretty clean. as I don't Mow with them. But Most still get used In the dirt
