My best mower is a Jubilee and a woods RM660, 72 inch mower. Everyone tells me how great my lawn looks. I too have back issues and can't ride a ztr or do much on a riding mower. Running in second gear, 1800 rpms, I'm doing 4 mph and the blades are singing, because pto is a little over 540 rpms. I think the tip speed of the blades are close to 200 mph.
My most comfortable mower is my 1950 Farmall C with a 72 inch woods belly mower. That may be one of the first ztr's, it has a narrow front end and can spin on a dime. The Farmall seat is the most comfortable seat.
The Jubilee is around 30 hp while the Farmall is closer to 20 hp. I'm not a fan of diesels because they give me a headache and my gassers have no problems starting. Not to mention I know how to work on gassers.
I can push snow with both tractors. The Jubilee has a 3 pt and I have many other attachments for it. It works best for grading drives and digging post holes.
I don't worry about a dealer, I do my own service work on the old simple antique tractors. If you can't do that, find the best dealer that's the closest and get a truck and trailer to take tractor in for service and repairs.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
