Conquest™ Yard Tractor
Cub Cadet XT3 Lawn Tractors
Narrowed down to 2 mowers. I mow my dads lawn too, 3 acres total, not totally smooth. Don't want a 0 turn. Want the blower to do a few paths here and there and not have to push my current blower or get out the big blower on back of the farm trac. I have a plow truck. Don't need 3point, don't need a bucket. Just want a mower with a front blower.
Cub xt3gs is $7600
simplicity $8800
Both will come with front blower, chains, weight and 54 inch fabbed deck.
I know the simplicity has better suspension, commercial engine, antiscalp deck, but is it worth $1200 more.
I looked at some used stuff and it was beat up or well over 10k. These are at the high end of my budget anyway.
