Soon I will need to buy a good lawn and garden tractor and I know nothing about them. Our new house is on 1.25 acres and I can't even imagine mowing it with a push mower. I'd also like it to be capable of mounting a plow blade for the drive in the winter.
Does anyone have any recommendations of who makes good ones and maybe some to stay away from? Any other info you may have that would help me select an appropriate tractor would also be appreciated. Thanks |

I am in the same boat as a newb with a country property. Fortunately it came with a '53 Ford tractor for plowing, which needs TLC but there are tons of replacement parts for. It also came with a Craftsman lawn mover which does not seem to have a great front end (steering probs). John Deere is still the gold standard, otherwise your Sears guy can fix you up.
