They cost a little less.
but they're
more than worth it
For years we've been telling you that a
John Deere costs a little more, but it's
worth it.
Now there's a John Deere that costs a
little less and is worth more than you
might expect. We all it the "R" Series
Riding Mower.
John Deere "R" Series riders are
- worth more because they offer you a
package of features most of the competi-
tion can't match. And at a price that you'll
probably have to hear twice to believe.
All models have a full-length
welded steel
frame and a 5 -
speed gear -driven transmission that lets
you clutch and shift on the go.
The new high-performance 30 -inch
mower and optional 6'/z -bushel rear bag-
ger provide cutting and bagging second to
none.
A tight 27 -inch turning radius and sec-
tor -and -pinion steering get you in and out
of tight places easily.
A cushioned seat and 2 -position, rub-
ber -mounted footrests soften the ride.
See us today for a John Deere 8 hp
"R" Series rider. Because when it
comes to quality ...more really can
cost less.
