Hi guys, I'm new to zero-turn mowers and need advice. I have a 4 acre lot, with 3 acres of grass needing cutting. The land is gentle sloping hillside. I will build my home there, so eventually will be 2.3 acres after house, driveway, flower beds, etc.. Also I'll cut my office, 0.4 acres too. I don't want to spend any more time on the mower than I have too, but I like doing things myself. And while I am on the mower, I want the most comfortable ride I can get. If possible, I want to get 10-15 years out the machine, with low maintenance. I have herniated discs in my low back, so I want to have as little of pain as possible - My wonderful wife knows all of this and is cool with whatever I buy.
As a starting place I've been to local Scag, Exmark, Bad Boy, and John Deere dealers in Greenville S.C. area. The rural Scag/Bad Boy dealer seemed the most hungry for business, but all were nice. I've considered the Cheetah 52" or 61", but honestly, I don't know enough to know, what I don't know.
Thank you for any advice.
Cheers,
Jack.
