100 hours on my Scag Liberty Z with FR600V Kawasaki 18 HP. Had since new for three years now. I change the oil once a season. Using straight 40W SN from Tractor Supply now. The manual says 40W can be used in our Florida summertime 95+ degree heat. I changed the hyrdro oil and filters last season, well before the recommended interval, using Castrol 20W-50, and I can tell the difference in how it drives so I will change it every other year from now on.

Hrm, I'd have to look at the log, but I know I'm at about 75 hours on my 2015 Cub Cadet XT1 46"(2? Whatever the HD one was). Its had 2-3 oil changes with various Valvoline/Havoline products (Currently Havoline High Mileage 10W30). Valve adjustment checked at 50 hours, it was fairly wide on the specs both intake and exhaust. Tuff Torq hydrostatic drive has had the oil replaced twice. First time was with M1 15W50, the second time with M1 5W50.
This is a Kholer 7000 22hp OHV twin. I don't need that big of a mower for my little 1/2 acre of mowing I do, but I prefer how the V-Twins run and its the first brand new rider I ever bought so I figured I'd get one that was slightly future-proof in case we decide to buy some property with a larger yard.

Trusty 1989 Wheel Horse 212-H with a 12 HP Briggs I/C flathead....1860 hrs and still going strong save for some piston/wrist pin slap. Burns no oil and is used every summer to mow a 300x75 field and a 1 acre yard. Bullet proof and built like a tank with it's Eaton 750 rear end and a VERY hefty frame. 100% original save for normal maintenance, spray can job on the hood, a steering gear, and a starter
