Questions and answers
how good is this lawn traqctor
The Cub Cadet GT2542 is considered a good lawn tractor, especially for its price. It is part of the 2500 series, which is generally regarded as a great value. The 42-inch twin-blade deck may not cut as efficiently as larger three-blade decks, but it is suitable for smaller lots, such as one acre. Users appreciate its solid build quality, reliable frame, and drive system. The model is also backed by a three-year warranty, which is honored well. Some users prefer it over other brands like John Deere, citing better construction and longer-lasting parts availability.
