Hello all, I just joined today.

I had been reading this forum off and on but recently have read it more because i am in the market for a lawn tractor. i hope when my post gets approved some of you more knowledgeable owners can assist me in my questions.

Thanks

Good morning - Welcome to TBN & the forum. You will need to provide additional information so you get accurate answers. What are you planning to do with your tractor and how big are these projects. Examples - one acre lawn needing to be mowed 2X weekly. Half mile gravel driveway that needs year round maintenance.

Flat ground or slopes?
Do you plan on using lawn tractor of other uses?

1 acre with hills, mowing needs at least once a week. A ton of oak trees so leaf pickup in the fall. A driveway that is about 100 ft long all paved and three cars wide, probably 2000 sq for the driveway including a hill. about 200 ft of sidewalk. Right now I have an Ariens doing the snow removal.

I posted something in buying pricing comparisons, It describes 2 units I am considering. I am open to other suggestions though. Thanks

EZ turn mower may fit your needs.

I've thought about Zero Turns but I have a hill to contend with. I have talked to a lawn service about it, they would not recommend it particularly since it is a shaded north facing slope so it stays a little damp to wet. The grass grows great on it though!
