Henrietta's a German-made '78 model 2040 but, I've only had her for a bit less than a year. She came onto the farm on July 5th and less than 3 hours after showing up she puked her hydraulic pump. $4000 and 6-weeks later I got her back with a new pump, rebuilt hydraulic cylinders and a new front end. Despite the unexpected outlay of cash, I really like my 2040. With the swept-back axle and low mounted muffler she's really manuverable and can fit into some tight places; something that's necessary out at the farm when mowing under trees and clearing brush out of the bottoms.
