Ya know, I know these 4000 series vertical shaft mowers aren't "tractors", but I use mine for mowing. And I tell ya, my dad lives next door and he has a Sears GT3000 like the one below, with a 22hp Kohler and a 46 inch deck. My little 11hp with a 36 inch deck was almost embarrasing him today. He was actually frustrated at the fact I could mow through cutting at least 2 inches down at a faster speed and a better looking cut. I tell him he has to remember he's cutting almost a foot more, but he still has to slow down at times more than I do because his deck just can't get rid of the grass as fast. And I consider my old Landlords better at cutting, I just don't want to put the wear and tear of mowing on them. Oh well, this 30 year old Simplicity "lawn tractor" can still cut with newer box store models...
