man I've been trying to get a new mower for the last 2 weeks.. Back story: I have just a half acre, but it's 70% 15-20 deg slope, and the flatter 30% at the bottom of the hill has a ton of gardening obstacles scattered around. I bought a Cub rider (ZT1 LT46) at Tractor Supply and took it back the next morning cuz it had no hour meter, and no room to put tire chains cuz they put the decks all the way back almost against the rear wheels now! (apparently thats what they all do now for the 46"ish decks/mowers since they're all made by the same company now). Then I bought a John Deere S170 because it had enough deck clearance to put chains on ( literally the only mower out of 40 that I looked at around town), but then I took it back 2 days later, because it had an awfully loud rattling pulley noise when the blades were engaged, and the stupid hydrostatic drive was so touchy that this thing just slid everywhere no matter what I did, and the grass was dry btw. Should I get a small zero turn, put wheel extenders on the rear wheels, and weights on the front? You think that will work for my yard? I had a 50" ZT until last year, and it would do everything except the steepest parts. It was very squirly though and I was the only one that could do it lol.
I do lawncare full time and I got a toro z master 2000 and I’m more impressed with my jd z530m with kawi I use it more and haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve had some things break on my toro. I think next time I got to replace a mower I’m getting another jd probably a r series in the 500
Good luck! My major neck surgery was 3 weeks ago. Still can't work etc. Been a rough time. But major surgeries in the neck has one of the worst and longest recovery rate. I know people with that knee surgery too. Turned out good but theu all had pain for couple weeks after. So you got this 💪
love toro brother but customer service last few years sucks . Bought a brand new kubota tractor & customer service is awesome .Any hook you look after your self & take care
