I am looking for a new mower, my last Craftsman just died. I just can't see buying another one. I want something more substantial, more tractor like. Mostly I would use it to mow the lawn, but thought it could pull an arena drag to dress the round pen where we ride our horses, maybe do some other chores.
I've seen lots of different models for sale, is the hydrostatic better than the clutch, which models have a three point hitch, do any have remote hydraulics, which have hydraulically raised mower decks, are they all shaft drive, do the two cylinders have that much more power, is there a big advantage to a creeper rear, if I find one without a mower deck are the decks interchangeable from one model to another?
Thanks in advance!
