You won't want to hear this, but generally the best thing for trimming along a driveway is a push mower. However, it all depends on the space you have and the steepness of the road banks. A ZTR shines when there is a lot of turning to do on relatively flat land, like if you have a lot of trees and bushes to mow around. A ZTR will run rings around a tractor in that situation. If most of what you mow is open in that five acres, then a tractor with a 6 foot finish mower and enough horsepower to pull it, something like a 135 MF or a 3000 Ford or better yet, a 4000 with independent PTO will work fine and you will have a tractor availiable for other jobs. Having said that, a good ZTR would still cut rings around the tractor because it will generally cut faster, also you don't hav to take time to hook up. Bear in mind, none of these mowing options will cut tall grass and brush. They are lawn mowers, not bush hogs.
