Question by Twlight Zone2: I have purchased property that will require at lease a compact tractor-any-body know about used Mitsubishi’s
Rather than purchase a new unit I’m looking for a used one–I like the Kubota tractors–they appear to be of a comfortable size. These units are expensive and I am looking for a used unit of some type. Some say, stay away from those tractors that are hard to get parts for as-Mitsubishi, Ford etc yet these units are the most common in the used market under 2,500.00.
I can purchase a used (2yr. old),Husqvarna lawn tractor , 21hp w/48″cut for $ 900.00–is that appropriate-for 2.5 acres?

Best answer:

Answer by captbryguy
Yes the Husqvarna lawn tractor will be fine for just mowing 2.5 acres.
You may also consider your terrain and weather.
For example, if you have steep hills or creeks or rocks or sand or snow or ice.

You may find that some Husqvarna lawn tractors are built buy a common manufacturer.
I do not consider them a heavy duty daily use type of tractor.
What 21hp engine is it – the kawasaki or kohler?

If you can find a good Kubota and can afford it – do it,,,,,
