Tow behind ATV mower
#11

I had thought about it but for lawn mowing I would think the expense of the pull-behind plus the wear and tear on your ATV would make it a losing proposition. If you're brush-hogging a large area and basically using the ATV in place of a tractor then it may be a different story. But that's just my thoughts.

Hello Neighbor: I live just north of you in forest lake.
I would think the trial cutter would be more of a brush cutter rather then a fine cut lawn mower. Like someone said, your rear tires are going to tear up your grass.
I searched C.L. and here is a nice used trail cutter. Swisher Trail Mower
Here are a couple of riding lawn mowers for under your $850 range.
!! Craftsman Lawn Tractor 25hp !!
Scotts / John Deere 46" Hydro Lawn Tractor
John Deere 185 Hydro
1 yr old RIDING LAWN MOWER
Lawn Mower Tractor
Good luck with the search

Tractor Mower
I was thinking of doing the tractor style mower for a couple years and then replace with a ztr mower...instead we have a son running around! Now I just need to hold on a few years and I can sit in the driveway and drink a beer while my son does the mowing on the tractor!! We have 2.5 acres and the mower takes some time, but it also makes for a little time to myself away from everything/everyone else! Seems like the pull-behind would be hard on your quad just idling around pulling that mower for 2 acres a couple times a week!

Well, I got my mower problem solved today, thanks to dumb people selling stuff on CL. I found this riding mower today, it's a Craftsman with 42" deck, 17 HP Kohler engine, and hydrostatic drive. The guy was selling it for $150 because he thought something was wrong with the transmission. Turned out the only thing wrong with it was that he had the lever on the back of the tractor pulled out that disengages the hydrostatic drive. (For when you need to roll it around by hand) I brought it home, pushed the lever back in, and it works perfectly. There isn't anything wrong with it at all, it even came with a brand new set of blades still sealed in the box.
