Looking at a new Scag 48" Liberty Z

Gonna look at a Z today. I am curious on how the ride is. My old bones can't take much bouncing. Mowing just under 2 acres, I thing a Z with 52" is a good fit. I also have a 500' driveway to edge.

See if a suspension seat is an option. Some mower companies list them as an option.

I found one with a Kawi and they offered to upgrade the seat for free. $5710.91 tax out the door.
I do like the Deere Z530M & Z530R but no Kawis in the store at this time.
Tuff decision.

Thinking of upgrading to a Scag 48" Liberty Z. Has the Kawasaki engine & HG 2800 pumps.
And the 5 year warranty.

Love my Toro. But maybe time for a slightly bigger machine. Not a need, more of a want.

Appreciate any input.

I bought my LZ 48 in August '19. <74 hours. I plan on draining the hydros, refilling with Amsoil Synthetic. Change

I have the LZ 48 Kawasaki powered. Bought it Aug '19, has <74 hours. Changed oil and filter at the start of each season, as well as greased the zerks. Check components for visible signs of wear. I use Stabil, Yamaha Ring Free and Seafoam. At least once a month during the offseason, I'll crank her up and take a spin down to the lower 40. To this point, my only complaint is paying the higher price for non-ethanol fuel.
 
Thanks for your input, I'm really liking my LZ 48, I got in May 20 / 2021, the cut quality is superb !! only 13.5 hours at end of my mow season, & all I have ever used was 100% gas..So I just bite the bullet on that. And add a few ozs. of seafoam for last tank of gas..

You're opposite of my practices, I do my oil & filter /service at end of the season. And let her sleep.

But plan to service the hydros early about 50 hours.

Now since mine is all cleaned up, I have given it 1st Paste Wax job. & Armor-all'd the tires. But that's me.
