The steering wheel tilts for operator comfort. Simplicity has taken care to make the new mount system backward compatible, so that older Legacy tractors can accept a newer loader, while a newer model will still be compatible with older attachments such as a snowblower. And the loader, still manufactured by Kwik-Way, now is a curved-boom mid-mount design, rather than the old subframe system. The 18” high-back seat is much thicker – think high-end z-trak – with armrests that fold when desired. The hood now has a racier design with a muscle car-like hood scoop, LED headlights and a mesh grille. the lightless hood hoop of the previous generation.

The current Simplicity Legacy XL lineup consists of three variants based on two engine options: a carbureted 885cc V-Twin making 31 horsepower with 2WD and choice of 52” or 61” fabricated mowing decks, a EFI 885cc V-Twin making 33 horsepower with 4WD and 52”/61” deck choices, and the same fuel-injected engine with 4WD, a 540-rpm rear PTO, and 52”/61” deck choices.

Should the Legacy XL have been included in the comparison? Read on and decide. In the two-part subcompact comparison ran a few weeks ago, we chose to exclude the Legacy XL due to Briggs & Stratton dropping the diesel power option and keeping the comparison apples to apples.
