    My JD riding mower has steadily declined the last couple of years to where it barely runs. It will start and run but wants to "choke" out, acting like it isn't getting gas, then in a minute, start...

    JD GT245 dead; electrical problem

    My GT245 just died in the middle of mowing the lawn. It was running perfect, and then died cold. I'm not too technical, but it seems to me that it must be an electrical problem because the tractor...

    JD GT245 Road Speed ?

    What else can I check to increase the road speed of my GT245? The belts are good and not sliping, the forward pedal moves all the way to the stopper. Can the trans oil be old? Thanks Denni

    John Deere GT245

    I'm just about to buy a GT245 with a 54" deck which might be slightly more than I need for my 3.5 acres, but I'm happy with that. I have not read too many comments on the model and maybe that is...

GT245 John Deere
Great Tractor
Model Year: 2005

I love the JD GT245, it has the power of the 20hp Kawasaki motor. Also the 48C mower deck that can handle all that is thrown at it. And other brands just don't stack up with the JD make and also the others can't even get near the reliability of them either.

Pros: Kaw. motor, and durable.
Cons: No gas gauge and a better way to make the hoods on some of the tractors withstand the vibration.

GT245 John Deere
My JD GT245
Model Year: 0

I have owned different types of garden equipment and I have to say the best one I have found is the John Deere GT-245. This is my second one I have owned and nothing else that I have had matches up to it. I have owned Cub Cadet GT2544 and a John Deere GT275. My in-laws had purchased JD and I didn't want to follow suit with them but after owning a JD GT245 the power of a 20hp Kaw. motor and 54" mowing deck and the quality the GT245 has I feel that for a older tractor that is the one to beat.

Pros: Kaw. 20hp motor, power, ease of use, durable, and quality of parts.
Cons: No gas gauge, hood does not take the abuse, no holding bars when on side of banks and a easier lift for the 54"c deck.
