Zero Turn Mower

the one i had was used commercially for 4 years .....they are good mowers......didnt say how much he wanted to spend..........used commercial wont have any warranty ........speed? timecutter is just as fast as an entry level commercial......
 
I do not intend to cut all of it with a ZTR. I have a Massey Ferguson tractor and Rhino 72" cutter to cut what is not used for yard and what the hay cutter does not cut. Sorry, I did not intend to leave the impression that I was going to cut it all with a ZTR.

My plan is to take a day this week and search my area for what is available locally. I do not want to buy one out side of my local area (max. 50 miles) I, also, want to be able to buy parts and have it serviced locally. Although I may have to wait a week to search, cause this plan is set up for the benefit of my bride (I don't know her plans for this week).

If you are going to mow 30 acres a week, I wouldn't spend under 10k. A toro timecutter would be scrapped incredibly fast on 30 acres. I would start with Grasshopper, Toro, or Scag Commercial models. Kubota would also be a good bet.

Get a ferris. I would get one with a diesel engine. It will last longer that a gas engine.

That is if you can afford diesel fuel....it has gotten so much more expensive than regular gasoline it would be a major purchase option decision for me. My father-in-law has a 35 foot Class A motorhome that is diesel and I won't tell you how much it costs for them to travel any distance in it(at 2-4mpg). IMHO, the longevity wouldn't offest the cosdt over ownership of a gasoline powered ZTR. Besides, the other components on a ZTR will usually start to go south long before the engine.

I have 330 hours on my ZD 326. It has been run under brutal conditions most of those hours. I would definitely go with the Kubota. ZD in the 300 series.

You won't go wrong.
