Here’s how I chose my newest mower. I scoured marketplace for two weeks low-balling clean low hour commercial mowers (I had tiers of models/brands I wanted most). Found someone who needed cash badly (skimmed through their Facebook page to do research) and closed the deal fast.

Same. I ended up with a 130 hour John Deere z915e for $3500. It works great and looks new.

For 3 months drove myself crazy researching zero turn mowers for my one acre plot. I choose the Bobcat ZT2000 42". Kawasaki FR651v and ZT-2800 with remote reservoir was a big selling point (plus a heck of a deal from Bobcat). Very happy with the mower.

Bought my first zero turn earlier this year. I shopped around for a month or so. I was looking for a bigger machine we mow atleast 5 acres. I looked at Spartan, Gravely, Toro,Kioti and X mark. Spartan was on top of my list and Kioti second. Same dealer sold both. Took wife when it came time to buy and we both preferred the Kioti, it came with the suspension seat which also had a higher back for mor comfort. The suspension seat was an expensive upgrade. Kioti ZXC LT so far very happy with it. Something i consider when buying expensive toys is availability of service and parts. I dont see the point of buying brand "A" which may be better but the closest dealer is 50 miles away.

I currently have a riding mower that is well aged. The property i mow isnt huge but i cant stand how my back feels after being on the rider for an hour. I recently sat in a BB Rebel and my goodness it was comfortable. My one worry is how much the Rebel weighs compared to a riding mower. A third of the property id be using it on is softer in the spring (my feet sink about a quarter to half inch into the grass as i walk checking for sticks) the riding mower does sink some as i cut through this area but does not get stuck. Im wondering if the Rebel would sink and get stuck in this type of soil or if the tire size would allow it to push through.

I bought a Husq 254F special edition 4 wks ago. I live on a 5.5 acre horse property with no horses, pastures were 2ft tall, not cut all summer. Took me 28 hours to cut the whole place, had to make 2 passes for the pastures. Whole place looks like a lawn. Mine has the 23 hp Kawasaki. Very powerful. Love that machine. Reply

I prefer battery operated zero turn mowers. I am not a landscaper or golf course maintainer. For me, Ryobi Z30Li is perfect for my yard. Zero maintenance, drop the 80v batteries in. In thick grass in my back yard my gas mower bogs down, however, the Ryobi blazes right through, with no clumps. I had a JD S130 tractor type, wasn't zero turn... I will never go back to gas...ever

Great video, I can't say i've seen you talking to the camera in any other videos yet. Question for you or hydro gear: looking at the spec sheets on the hydrogears, when it says gross vehicle weight 1600lbs for example, is that for the pair of transaxles or is that for each? i.e. will a single ZT-3400 support up to a 1600 lb zero turn, or is it 1600 lbs for a pair of ZT-3400s?
@morejelloplease 11 місяців тому
the reason i ask is this: let's take a higher end residential unit with a ZT-2800, that's rated for 1000 lbs. some of these zero turns weigh 800lbs, then add a 250lb operator and you've already exceeded the weight capacity. if it's 1000 lbs per transaxle, and there's 2 of them, then now you're way under the rated capacity. all the spec sheets say gross vehicle weight so i'm assuming it's for a pair, because they all have 2 drive units. I emailed hydrogear a year ago and they never responded.
@TractorBobs 11 місяців тому
Great question! A pair count for the 1000.lb vehicle weight. However, the opperator weight is not a concern here. Thats already factored in before they give that number.
@morejelloplease 11 місяців тому
@@TractorBobs i figured it was the same as a car, GVWR is curb weight of the car, plus fluids, passengers, any accessories etc. so if the gross rating of the ZT-2800 is 1000, i'm assuming that's stretching it on a gravely ZT-XL 52" where it's curb weight is over 700lbs. plus fluids, and your average cheeseburger eating american (myself included) which will put that sucker right at it's limit. I've owned and operated several ZT's with 2800's and I have no issue running one of those machines and also towing a 300lb yard cart with firewood, rocks, etc. the key is warm up the fluids, keep the rpm high for max power and cooling, and gradually press on those sticks. :)

No sir they all have fine mowers. We carry the Bad Boy mowers and they tend to be some of the best in their category which Is why I showed the Bad Boy. Also the Bad Boy is what I personally have access to. Ultimately the decision of which mower is best, is up to you.

Right now I’m stuck between the Bad boy Magnum and the Toro Timecutter with the Myride suspension. The Magnum seems better built but the toro has the suspension, plus I hear that they cut great. Any advice or any other mowers I should be looking at?
@TractorBobs 11 місяців тому
The mowers will have cut with the same quality. And you're right, the bad boy is going to have a more sturdy construction. I'd recommend taking the mowers for a test ride if you can to see if the suspension is worth it. The Toro my ride suspension isn't my favorite so I'd recommend the bad boy. However taking a test ride is allways the best choice if you can!
@mikezupancic2182 11 місяців тому
@Curtis Fultz the manufacturer just builds the warranty cost into the price of the machine. I'm sure you could have purchased a warranty package somewhere for the BB that exceeded the Toro warranty if you wanted.

Get the Toro. I have the 42” no my ride, my buddy has 54” with my ride. He mows 3 acres twice a week for 3 ish years, no problems. Toro 24.5 hp engine. I only have 20 hours on mine so far but it’s great and solidly built.
