Worth paying more for a better machine

I have a 9 year old MTD with an 18 hp engine and auto trans. 42" cut.
The engine is fine, and the thing does the job, but the mower deck is a PITA to get off, making it hard to change the blades without contortionism or standing the thing on end. Its adjustment is also a nuisance, so I don't mess with it.
The steering is junk, and was on it's way south without some damage I did when not paying attention.
I wish I hadn't been a cheapskate and had (a) gotten a garden tractor instead of a lawn tractor, and (b) bought a better brand.
