You're dramatically overstating the potential to back-flip and your second paragraph is pure nonsense. This is some of the worst advice I've ever seen on this message board that doesn't have to do with dating.

If your lawn is on the side of a mountain and you drive like an 8 year old, ZTR might not be for you. But then in that case, you'd probably be better off getting a billy goat than any kind of riding mower.
