I have about 3/4 acre of “yard” that needs mowing at our farm a couple times a year and it’s a pain to haul my mower from home to do it.
I call it a yard and it is, but it’s very rough and it’s been hard on my “good” mower.
So I’ve been looking around at used and new riding mowers in the sub $2k range.
I can buy a one owner 2016 JD X300 with 411 hours (nice condition) for $1500. But I can also buy a brand new Cub Cadet with hail damage for $200 more.
Am I better off getting a used but higher quality lawn tractor, or a new one that’s probably less well-built?
