Im looking to replace my lawn tractor with a ZTR. I have about 2 acres to mow, with several trees and the back yard has an approx 15 degree slope at worse for about 30 ft. across 150ft The yard is rough with some mole soft spots.
I have $3000 to spend. I looked at the Husqvarna 5424 and the Toro SS5000.
I like the Toro the best and generally find many more pos reviews. The toro comes with the 24 hp 725cc Kohler V-Twin engine.
Does anyone know if this years model engine is a decent one. I know some years were bad for Kohler and some for the Kawasaki. I can get the Kohler for $2650 shipped and the Kawasaki $2999 shipped.
Any other suggestions appreciated.
