I was ready to buy a Cub Cadet 1042 with the 18 HP V-Twin Kawasaki engine. You guys had given me pretty good recommendations on this machine. But, I had always assumed that a comparable John Deere would be much more expensive than a Cub Cadet. Not true! At the local JD dealer today, I found that I can buy a John Deere D130, with a 22 HP V-Twin Briggs and Straton engine for the same price as the Cub Cadet.
I mow two level lawns, about one acre each. I put about 50 hours per year on the mower. I do not do any pulling. I only use the machine as a mower.
So, for the same money, which mower would you guys recommend? Thanks for your advice!
