I have three plus acres to mow 1/2 open fields, 1/2 around trees. Would a manual transmission be fine or how would the auto(with cruise control) hold up? I usually get about 10 to 11 years out of the sears lawn tractors before the manual transmission starts to act up...(hard to shift).
from what I have seen the Home despots John Deere looks like a clone of a Toro/sears/cub cadet....I do not have the money for a commercial mower(with a sulky) so, I think either the big box stores,, but I am leaning more towards the Toro dealer, but the Toro looks like a JD clone......thanks for any input...
I would go for the john deere 20 HP automatic. You can adjust your speed with your foot, that makes it easy to mow around trees, bushes, etc. Just make sure you maintain it and it will last a good long while. John deere seems a little pricey but they are good lawn tractors. If you get lucky you might find an old IH cub cadet,they are manuel trans, but never wear out,and are easy to work on. If you go John deere I recommend nothing smaller than 20hp. I have 20hp and cut one acre. It is 6 yrs. old and runs great. Good luck, shop around and you will be surprised at what you can get for under $700.00 (used)
I was unable to find a Ferris that had one. So I put one on mine and made a video of it. Seems to work well so far.

On an otherwise fair June afternoon when I was 12, my father beckoned to me from behind his huge and terrifying orange lawn mower.
"It's high time you start mowing the lawn," he said.
The mower was a 1955 Jacobsen Estate — a laughably polite misnomer. "Estate" evokes images of lawn parties, dainty cucumber sandwiches and tall glasses of iced tea, a world far away from the malevolent mechanical beast that was the Jacobsen. It was reminiscent of Maximum Overdrive or the truck from Steven Spielberg's 1971 made-for-TV chase movie Duel. Constructed of steel and cast iron, there were no safeties on it. The front cylinder blades were like a vicious bared mouth chewing through everything and anything in its path.
