I am looking at looking at buying a garden tractor. A Husqvarna 2354GXLS (23hp 54" Deck) vs. 2754GLS (27hp 54" Deck) vs. Craftsman’s GT5000 (26hp 54" deck)

I am not pulling or plowing anything just cutting over 2 acres with a slope (some parts about 45% sloped).

One tractor is 23 hp with 24"x12" rear wheels
One is 27 hp with 23"x10" rear wheels.
The Craftsman is 26"hp with 23"x10" rear wheels but goes 7.5 mph

They all have the hydrostatic transmission and 54" deck.

I have heard that Craftsman’s and Husqvarna are made by the same company, not sure if that is true.

Questions:

Is there a big difference between 23hp and 27hp (horse power)? I currently have a 17.5 hp that is not good on the slopes.

Since they are very similar, should I be looking a hp, speed, tire size, or brand?

Thanks for the replys.

You WILL notice that HP difference on slopes. Also the bigger the rear tires the better. I wouldn't consider its speed whatsoever. Even with big fancy lawn mowers you have to go pretty slow to get a good cut.

im selling my LT-125 last walk around drive talk about it enjoy!

It's a 2006 Husqvarna riding lawn mower that i paid $2500 for new. it needs a new battery but other than that it's fine, has a 48" deck, i'm looking to sell it now but was wondering how much i could get for it?

which model # is it? i know the 20hp 46" deck at lowes is currently going for $1599 new and the 23hp 48" deck model is selling for $1799. i know there are larger models or ones with more bells and whistles but this should give you an idea of what to expect. also depends on how many hours are on it.

I have a Husqvarna (YTH2448) 24hp riding lawnmower that is giving me problems. When in drive, the engine lopes. When I engage the mowing deck it stops and the idle speed picks up, but when I have the speed/acceleration down low and mowing deck unengaged, it sounds like it's about to shut off. I've changed spark plugs (has 2), new fuel filter, changed the oil filter, cleaned air filter, vacuumed any debris out from around the motor and still have the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Depends on the carburetor. The ones I'm familiar with have 2 idle set screws. One for low idle, one for power. sounds like the low idle needs adjusting. If you do decide to play with the settings, 1) mark the screw head and carburetor before doing anything so you know where you started. and 2) keep track of the number of turns you give it. Pen and paper are a real good idea. Turn a quarter turn at a time. Start counter-clockwise.
