And I absolutely love it! I have been mowing our 5 acres for the past 8 years with a Woods RD 8400 finish mover behind my John Deere 4500 CUT. That worked good but have had problems keeping the pneumatic tires from getting flats. After getting two flats the first time I mowed this year, I decided to make a change. Stopped at a local dealer who was having a demo day for Ferris mowers. Liked the way they were built. Scheduled a demo with the dealer and when the day came for the demo, the salesman never brought the machine or called to explain. I got kind of PO'd and went to the next closest dealer who answered all my questions, let me try one at the dealership, and had better pricing. Long story short, I am now the owner of an IS 700 Z with a 61" Deck. I never really considered a ZT previously and now am glad I did!

Congrats Ragged and good move going to another dealer. I went through the same ordeal in my area and thought, if they treat me like this when a potential sale is involved, how much worse are they going to treat me when I need help with no big money involved?

Pics?

Very nice back drop indeed!
That's sorta the view my grand parents had in the Catskills. Even the dandelions look apropos for the scene:laughing: I would have to get some decent sway bars to go with the coil-over suspension, maybe 1" drop springs too:thumbsup:.

It does go pretty fast compared to what I am used to! Thanks for the compliments on the view. We can have a fantastic view and enjoy beautiful sunsets. Having been here for almost 10 years now, we are still amazed by the view. Now that I won't be spending as much time mowing the lawn, I may have some more time to sit by the pond and enjoy the view while having a cold one!

That statement right there, is what it's all about. but 1" drop springs would still be pretty cool 8^)
