HST is definately easier and more fun to use. However they will cost more to repair when they break, and probably be a dealer only repair job.
When an HST goes bad it is usually all the way out, unlike a gear tranny which will usually complain and get your attention before it goes all the way out. Towing a tractor with a HST can be a problem with some brands too.
Check out the 'What's ailing my bota 4610' thread in Owning/Operating on this board to see what can happen when a HST goes south.
As you can probably tell I like gear trannys best. Synchro with shuttle shift is my favorite.
Good luck and happy tractoring /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
