Which is the better tractor for mowing and just better built features, I don't mow much just like these tractors.
Thanks again.
 
If your primary (or only) use is going to be mowing and you have a lot to do, go with the 455. That is exactly what they are designed to do and are a very good machine. The 755 is a compact tractor, that can also mow. They will cut grass, but are slow, cumbersome, and will not provide nearly as nice of a cut as the 455.
 
I had a 755 and now have a 425 that has a front blade on it mainly for snow.
The 755 if 4 x 4 will be more capable on hills and can be used for other things too with the 3 point hitch and PTO. The 755 I had was like mowing with a NASCAR it was very responsive and nimble hydro. Maybe the other person is confusing it with the 750 which are gear drive ? I mowed alot of hours with a 750 and belly mower. Dad still owns it. Great machine. They are all good machines. If they are in similar condition and price I'd go with the 755 as it will allow you do more with having a standard cat. 1 3pt hitch. and pto. The belly mounted mower deck should be pretty much the same deck and mow the same.
 
I have a 455 but this 755 i'm looking at has a 60 deck under it and 3pt. hitch, will this tractor handle a 42 tiller and not tear up the tractor?
 
I would not know how it would tear up the tractor ? Just make sure the tiller has some sort of working
protection device like shear bolt or slip clutch in case you find some unknown hidden object. The one I had actually came with a JD brand tiller. I think it was larger than 42 maybe even a 60 ?
I ran a small Kubota with a tiller once and those hydro's are the way to go for tilling ! I sold the one I got with the JD as I had no use for it.
