I'm looking to purchase a used ZTR for my home use. Have about 2 acres with some hills and trees. I'm looking to spend around $2,500-$3,000 and thinking better off with a used HD residential/lower end commercial than what I could buy new for that price. I previously had a 54" Ariens garden tractor that lasted about 7 years although I had many issues. The wheel would fall off occastionally for the past 3 years, now won't even move forward. I was hoping to be able to get 10 years without so many headaches this time. Here is what I have seen for sale locally. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
