Residential Mower decision, Help please!!!

[kyalpacas]

I have just over 1 acre to mow, fairly flat, except by road where it slopes into drainage ditch. I am deciding between these:

2014 Craftsman 54" turn tight riding mower, 24 hp Platinum Briggs/Stratton, 20 hours

Dixon 42" ZTR with 22 hp Kawasaki, 261 hours

Toro Mustang XP ZTR 50" Cut, 25 hp Kohler Courage, 69 hours

Husqvarna ZTR 54" with Kohler 24hp motor, 75 hours

I don't have much need for a cart or any other accessory needed with my mower, I have a pickup if I need to haul stuff away. Just want a good cut, that my older children could potentially learn to mow on.

given choices, & if taken care of, i would go w/toro. dixon ok too, but substantially less cut width.... with the right zero turn, you'll go circles around the traditional rider. best
