I have a 1/2 acre plus lot that I am looking for something 42” - 48”.. I currently have a 48” Husqvarna ZTR, but just am an awful driver trying to control the front wheels around planter beds and etc...
From research on this site, it appears Cub Cadet, John Deere, and Husqvarna are the options (I’ve been looking at the JD X300 Series, but do not now how or which competitor’s models to compare them to)... are there others?
Priorities are:
Good clean cut
Good mulching (will bag at times)
Easy handling / Steering
Smoother ride
Reliable
As a curve ball, I would like to use it down the road for maybe pushing snow for a 35’ x 35’ driveway. Do I need to upgrade transmissions for this small area?
I will consider used for better models.. What level of hours is too high for used?
Your advice and input would be appreciated..
Tks
Bob
