I have narrowed my choices down to 2 tractors....Husqvarna yth 24v42 ls or toro timecutter ss 4260. Both dealers are excellent ...not sure which way to go. Any thoughts....

My last mower was a lawn tractor. I always had a hard time with obstacles in my lawn. Picked up an Ariens zero turn and mowing is a pleasure. I now mow in half the time. After you have used a zt for about 1/2 hour you will have adjusted to the controls. It is much easier than turning the wheel of a lawn tractor. I also find that I have much more room for my legs. I am really comfortable on the zt.

Z is just easier to get around objects and true zero turning is nice instead odd circles and turns you need to do with a tractor . I have tractors but use Z's at work.

Mine is rated to pull 300 lbs. I will never use it that way though as I have a tractor.

I would take the Toro over the Husky anytime. Just built better. As to towing, I would never tow with a ZT as the reserviors are not large enough to keep the fluid from overheating.
