Riding mower for rural 2 acres with hills?
21 - 25 of 25 Posts
I bought a inexpensive old tank of a mower- an old craftsman GT6000, six speed manual.
Plan on putting on some new tires and hopefully running them with low pressure to help with the ride- It has been a few months since my other mower gave up and had forgotten how bumping around on a mower for 4 or 5 hours feels...!

Reasonable decision. I've heard the GT6000 is a decent machine. Care for it and it should do fine. Congrats and good luck!

2015 Craftsman GT5500 Review
Lawn and Garden Tractor Reviews (All Brands)For those looking at garden tractors, the Craftsman line is worth consideration. I purchased a Craftsman 2015 GT5500 after looking at Husqvarna, John Deere, and Cub Cadet. It's hard to ignore the GT5500's price point and features. For the price of one John Deere X360 I could almost buy two...- 16
