I'm looking at getting a jd tractor that can rototill / blow snow within the next two years. Is the cornering / steering that much of a difference between the x500 and the x534?
x500 or x534 your preferrence?

I'm not sure about the steering difference but if you are considering a snow blower I would go with a model with hydraulic lift. I have the X530 and the hydraulic lift for the heavy blower is nice. I think I read that the X500 with the blower is fairly heavy on the mechanical foot lift. There is a spring assist that makes it a little easier but that is an option. Also I thought I read that you can't put chains on the 4 wheel steer model. Not sure about that. Maybe someone else can confirm.

The turning radius of the X500 is 22", for the X534 it's 27".

Roger that! The hydraulic lift is a must.

OK, a X534 is 4 wheel steer, the X500 is not.
If the X500 turns shorter, why offer the X534?LOLOLO
