I'm looking to up grade from my old JD 210 to a new machine. I basically only moves snow with my tractor, but a mower deck may be handy. I have my eye on the YTH24V42LS with locking diff, I was wondering what your opinion is of it. As far as my 210 goes, I don't utilize it to it's full potential with groung engagement, etc. Also I would like to hear from someone with the GTH series machine with the Hydro-gear tranny. Any help would be appreciated.
