New mower choice

Looking at a new purchase, narrowed it down to the following three:
Bobcat 6000MX w/Kawasaki FX850V 61" (9996006; HG Pumps & Wheel motors)
Scag Cheetah w/27HP Kawasaki 61" (SCZ61V-27FX; 2 speed ZT-5400's)
John Deere 930M w/25.5HP Kawasaki 60" (F801V; Tuff Torq integrated Pumps/WM's)
Pretty much listed in order of personal preference, but looking for any experiences good or bad from members here. The Cheetah has the lowest price, but not enough to rule out the others. Dealer network about the same for all.


May also consider the Scag Tiger Cat II w/23HP Kawasaki (STCII-61-23FX; 12cc Hydro-Gear pumps & Parker wheel motors as a 4th position depending on feedback here.
The TCII doesn't look to be built nearly as well as the others (although I do lean towards the pump/wheel motor set-up, hence the Bobcat being first on the list). Any insight is appreciated.

It seems the efi B&S vanguard engine is preferred over on lawnsite.com

Looks like you have a made a good choice list. But in my opinion Scag Cheetah w/27HP Kawasaki 61" is good among them. :smile:
