Lawn tractors are
great for
mowing and light chores. Super convenient for yard cleanup because
you can use an optional rear bagging unit, or even tow a light
trailer.
Today most lawn tractors are equipped
with a 42" or larger deck. Gone are the days of the Toro or
Ariens rear engine riding mower.
These units sport a Kohler 20+hp engine,
which is more than plenty to accomplish work around the yard. All models
of Toro tractors also
have a KeyChoice system that allows you to mow in reverse without
turning off the deck. The gas tank is huge at over 11 gallons...
that'll keep you busy! The cut is quite nice, and will leave you
smiling, as you sip away your ice-T in the cup holder!
The
next level up is a Garden
Tractor. Toro's GT2200 is a nice for larger lawns (up to 2.5
acres). They are stronger for bigger chores around the yard.
Although not quite what WheelHorse used to be (nor do they cost $7000),
for many people this machine would work well.
