Of the 3, which would you get for 1.20 acres? I'm not sure what the prices are on the Kubotas, I'm assuming they will all be in $7,000 range.

$7000.00 is an awful lot of money to spend for 1.20 acres. You can get plenty of mower for your lawn for much less. If you are dead set on one of them then any will be fine. I am a big fan of hustler, but the kubota mowers are great as well. Any mower you get in that price range will be over kill for your lawn. Do you have steep hills or any ponds on your property?
I always see this 0% mentioned. Just so you know - Sheffield financial is a company. And it's NOT 0%. You pay 0.9% prepaid interest and about $50 documentation fee. For me it was about $125 upfront.
I bought Raptor SD for .7 acre and feel like I'm cutting too fast No doubt $7k machine will be nice, but check Raptor SD with 60 inch deck. It has financing, nice seat, engine guard. You will do your 1.2 in no time. $4400.
I agree, there are always hidden fees because they have to make something. I read a lot of negative reviews on the Raptor and have shied away from it. Looking at it though, it is the one I initially picked.
The raptor and the raptor sd are two different mowers. The sd is a better mower and can handle your lawn with ease. There are many other options out there as well. The kubota kommander 100 series, the exmark quest or pioneer series, toro Titan mx series, ferris is600, snapper pro s50xt, gravely zt Xl, husqvarna mz and mzt series, country clipper edge series (cool features such as single joy stick control and a flip forward deck). There are many more options those are just some off the top of my head. It is close to the end of mowing season. Take your time and check all the dealers in your area. If you wait till after mowing season you will get a better deal
I guess the inconsistent reviews scare me. It's one of those things where you don't want to spend $5000 on a headache when you can spend a couple thousand more. I originally planned to buy offseason but the local dealers barely have anything on the floor. Most of them are farm equipment dealers and have it to an art on small equipment inventory control.
