Getting a CK20

somehow I don't think hills will be an issue for him...

10 hours so far and no complaints. I am happy I went went with the lighter machine. The back of my yard can get swampy if it rains a lot and the CK20 does a good bit of leaving tire marks all over. I can't imagine the CK25 with the added weight. I can't say that I have needed the extra HP, I haven't run it at full speed yet and it seems to do fine. The FEl has been great and I've found extra uses for the tractor already. Money well spent.

My kids love it as well... pictures attached

The 25 is a heavier machine, but it also has a larger footprint for tires, so overall effect on lawn may not be all that much. Good to hear the 20 is doing all you needed, and more it sounds like. Does look like the kids are enjoying it as well. Why is one buckled in and the other not??

Not sure why one was buckeld and not the other. The tractor was not running anyway.

So you weren't letting them 'tear' up the back yard. Looks like they were having fun anyway, probably not as much the families biggest kid.

I think once they get to drive it for real, they'll have the most fun. I need to start teaching the boy, one can never have to much help. I have to make sure it's in low range and not to many RPM's so he can start to learn to drive it. Thankfully it's all flat land around here. I remember when I lived in NC, the landscaper of the development had 2 Kubota's and his son, who was not older than 9 or 10, would drive the smaller one almost a well as his father.
