Read articles →An owner-operator's 300-hour, roughly year-and-a-half real-world verdict on the LS MT573, not a dealer walkaround. He runs through specific issues he's experienced: a recurring hydraulic steering gurgle he wants LS to recall, cracking plastic window grommets, a failed speed sensor, a dead battery, and a back-glass parts delay stretching past four months. Also covers what's worked well: AC, loader, third function, three-point, and R14 tires. Best for shoppers weighing LS reliability and parts availability.
An owner-operator channel that explicitly aims for unbiased real-world reviews of equipment they personally own and use, with no evident dealer or brand affiliation.
A recurring hydraulic steering gurgle, cracking plastic window grommets, a failed speed sensor, a dead battery, and a back window glass that took over four months to arrive.
Mixed. The speed sensor came in about two weeks after ordering, but the back window glass was ordered in September and still had not arrived by January.
The owner says the quality is all there, it feels reliable and powerful at 73 horsepower, and it has done everything asked of it, though parts support needs work.
It worked great even at 100 degrees in Texas, with no issues except needing to clear grass debris from around the radiator during hay season.
