    Zero turn vs. 4X4 tractor for mowing

    I have that exact mower and cut about 17 acres. I can cut at full speed, significantly faster than your tractor. I can do 17 acres in about 5 hrs. As far as ditches and steep banks, this tractor is heavy. Its a pro zero turn. Its not really meant to cut steep banks and it gets sketchy AF...

    Cold running problems
