JD X380 vs X570 new purchase?

[Tractorable]

Definitely go with the X5 series to get the K72 transaxle. You really need to shop the transaxle on riding mowers because that’s always the first thing that breaks, get the best one you can from the git go.

I hemmed and hawed for a long time and eventually went with the X590 mainly because it’s fuel injected with no choke, just turn the key and go, no messing with carbs and chokes etc. I wanted a machine that was wife friendly that she could just get on turn the key and go. No regrets, love my X590.

This is also true with zero turn mowers. The type of hydrostatic drives that they use is what largely determines the life expectancy of the machine.
