    Bought "new" Simplicity Citation XT 52"

    Well, in my case, I got a Snapper 360z 52” last year (a left-over 2017) at a great price. My local dealer quoted me the firm $3899+ our 10.5%tax = $4308. (new 2019) An out-of-town dealer quoted me $2999+ their 8% tax = $3239 (new 2017) He informed me the only change for 2019 was an now...

    460Z

    Only thing, the Briggs 25hp engine with the “cyclonic” filter has a bad failure history. Everything else is fine. Kawasaki engine is the choice.

    2 acres and a $5,000 budget for a new ZTR....looking for some wisdom

    Sorry denk, It’s not $6k. It’s not EVEN $5k. $4350 shipped no tax. Huge deal. (BRUNOs , link below) At the dealers, $4699 minus what you talk them down. 2 acres is not that large. Ferris 400S 48” model is only 753lbs. Not a tank. Do your homework before you start slinging prices out there...

    zero turn under $3000

    Most of your residential zero turn mowers under $3000 incorporate the Hydro Gear EZT hydrostatic transmissions. In my opinion, While these are reliable units, they are sealed, non serviceable units. No drain plugs and no filters are on these models. They are essentially “throw away” units. I...

    1st time ZT shopper some guidance on models to consider.

    Congratulations on the new mower. I found slowing down a little made a nicer overall cut. Less scalping. Now I’m slowly easing UP the cutting height and found a real nice cut job. Just more frequent. But I love running this machine. SNAPPER 360Z 25hp Briggs/52” ZT2800s.

    Is there a reliable Zero Turn for $3,000?

    Hi. After much study, I purchased a SNAPPER 360Z 25/52”. I know these are the smaller residential models, but the 52” model has minimum features for your $ budgets.... Four models available, but the largest is the 360Z 25/52”. A 25hp Briggs Professional with 10 gauge 52” fab deck. This is the...

    1st time ZT shopper some guidance on models to consider.

    I like the idea of suspension on the mower (Ferris) but I have read a few reviews the the suspension allows the mower frame to move too much causing mower deck to “float” too much causing uneven cut. Just something I read. My cut is perfect on the rigid frame Snapper 360Z 25/52” I just...
