Hello.
I'm considering upgrading from my 24 year old Craftsman lawn tractor to a ZT. However, my yard has 2 18 degree slopes in series with a total elevation change of 18 feet. The companies I have researched indicate this is too steep. However, when I talk to dealers, not box stores, they say no problem. Also, there are different opinions on towing capabilities. I sometimes tow a cart with 200 lbs of load (but not up the hills) and plug aerator.
Do these qualifications indicate a lawn tractor is a better choice?
If a ZT is OK, should I go to a serviceable type tranny?
Thanks, Mike
