My old John Deerre L120 riding mower is in need of more repairs than I am willing to put into (10 yrs old). I am looking at getting a new ZTR mower for my 1.5 acre lot. I would like to get a 46" to 50" mowing width with a fabricated deck or at least a heavy duty/reinforced deck due to tree roots, gum balls, etc.
I found a couple of models and have tried researching them but would like to get some opinions. Below is a list of what I am considering. Thoughts?
Any input is helpful. Thanks.
