I still like EZ for one reason. It does the pulling. Sure PS frees up power and weight, but I don't think lack of power and too much weight (watch it) are what makes me a slow driver.

IF I disconnect the EZ, then casual running in the yard becomes more of an inconvenient chore than a simple button push.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but my EZ still works fine. And it's staying on until it breaks.
