Last year my ariens s10g finally died. I owned that tractor for close to
30 yesrs. 15 years ago the motor took a dump andi bought a 16 hp to
replace it. I had a set of tire chains a 300lbs weight box on the back and
a snow plow blade.I pushed dirt like a bulldozer,this tractor did
everthing i needed it to do. My 1.5 acers are now in very good shape but
my workhorse is now dead,motor died mower deck has been welded back
together to many times. I cant spend 7gs on a new tractor. What I need
now is to just cut the grass,pull a lawn roller around in the spring and a
40" areator ever other time I cut the lawn. No blade or snowthrower.
Looking at 155c jd and ..lt155 cub cadet any opinons. The cub cadet looks
like a beefier tractor. Grass is starting grow again any opinions or
coments from owners of these models.


Ignore Johnny's brush-off. We just had a lengthy discussion on a JD & a
Toro. This is as good a place as any to get an opinion.
Personally I doubt if there is much difference between the two you
mentioned - just a matter of what color you like and if anybody wants to
deal on the price or throw in some extra goodies. I'm still sticking with
the oldies - 2 old Cub Cadets, an old JD, and a couple old Wheelhorses. But
I'm still plowing a garden, discing, snowblowing, dragging logs around,
pulling wagons of firewood, etc. (envying your 300# weight box). I would
think either machine you are looking at will satisfy your needs.
