Ok Guys, Lawn/garden tractors are fun machines to own and use and we all seem to feel we made the right purchase for our individual needs. However, there are alot of models out there with different features at a wide range of prices.
What do you dislike or have concerns about your tractor?
This is not to put down any brand or start a bash, I just would like to Know what you think could have been better engineered on your model. Lets be honest, If a Lawn/garden tractor was perfect, there would be $100 bills coming out of the chute instead of clippings. :lmao:
To start things off, This is what I don't like about my GT5000:
1, Turning radius too big
2, Kohler smokes on startup
3, Traction was poor (no posi traction) and I had to add wheel weights and AG tires
4, No hour meter on my model
5, Rear axels are 1" but have plastic bushings on them for "show" to make them look bigger.
6, Headlights are operated by key switch (I would rather have a separete switch)
7, Sears needs to sell more and better and less expensive implements.
