ZTR mowers

I've got a flat 1 acre lot and am considering getting a smaller ztr mower. I just compared the cub cadet and troy bilt 42" mowers and found that they are made by the same company (MTD) and virtually identical except for 1hp difference in the Kohler engine. Even most parts are interchangeable. Well, maybe the cub cadet has a few minor niceities. So my question is: is the cub cadets 1 extra hp (20 vs 19) and a few minor features worth the $300 price difference or is it paying for name recognition only? Yeah, I know the Kawasaki engine is better but they only come on the larger size mowers. Red So far the best constructed and dependable ztr is commercial John Deere. It is a real Deere and not a rebadged MTD. They are pricey at around 7 grand. You get a good ride and with Gator blades you don't have to rake up the grass. Your Grand kids may wear it out but you probably won't live that long. Mowing the lawn is not just a chore when you have the right equipment. |
