I will say I really like my 3000 series for mowing, it's the best Cub tractor I've mowed with, it cuts really nice. I have the 48" deck but there was a 42" deck available. The power steering, hydraulic lift and foot controls are great for mowing. My wife even likes to use it.
The market pricing on them makes one a great deal too.
It seems to do everything very well, it is great for snow removal too, it pushes a 54" blade no problem and the snow blower is really nice.
Great bang for the buck IMHO. I'd stay away from the B&S engine if possible however.
