I have a 42" ZT1 which I really like, however our 2-3 acre mowable area has a serious slope to it.

I have to be very careful not to rip up the grass when turning or stopping, and even when dry it is easy to slide (1 wheel not turning, a skid).

While mowing across the hill (recommended safest way) the back end will slip down the slope a few inches at times in a couple areas.

Obviously our lot isn't right for a ZT, a conventional tractor would be better- sorry, I am a ZT guy!

Does the ZT2 have better traction, or worse? I bought the ZT1 thru Home Depot, and have the ability to return it for full credit, to hopefully get a ZT2 from them. Just a matter of.... is it worth it.... a lot more cost.

If the traction is better, and I won't rip up my lawn as easily, I need to think about it.

Thanks for any help.
