Overview
Round three of an eight-part head-to-head series, this installment focuses entirely on mower operation across seven specific tests: turning radius measured with paint marks and a tape, hillside and ditch-bank mowing with input from a second operator, and a detailed underside deck inspection including internal airflow dimensions and steel thickness measured with calipers. Practical and methodical, it suits shoppers who want granular mowing comparisons before buying.
Tractor Time with Tim is an owner-operator channel where a non-professional enthusiast runs hands-on tests on his own property, with no apparent dealership affiliation.
