One of the two machines below would be used to occasionally clear a portion of my camp driveway of snow in the winter (once a month or so). I use an IH Cub Lo-Boy to plow the majority of it, but there is a creek between the two portions that can't be crossed in the winter (there is a footbridge). One of the two machines below would be used in the summer for trim mowing. I currently have a 2001 JD Sabre 1742HS with 130 hrs that I would sell.
1999 425 with ~750 hrs, 54" deck, 54" blade, rear wheel weights, bar tires (worn), and chains. Appears to be in good shape. $3700
OR
1997 GT275 with unknown hours, 48" deck, 42" blade, chains. Good shape. $1600.
Both machines would cut grass fine. My dilemma is how much difference would there be in snow plowing (yes, I realize the plow width and hyd lift/angle on 425)? Will there be a GREAT difference in plowing ability (of course, weights would be added to the GT275)?
