Scag Freedom Z vs Snapper s560Z

[FalconB]

I've been doing a lot of research but can't decide. I have 2.5 acres, right now blank smooth property, but pond, house, driveway trees all coming soon.

I've narrowed it down to the Freedom Z 52" and the Snapper s560Z. Major differences I can remember off the top of my head are:
2800 hydros on Scag vs 31or 3200 on Snapper
Kohler 7000- Scag vs B and S commercial on Snapper
ROPS on both

Price is pretty much the same.

Your thoughts please?

Nothing on the mower
However when you do the landscaping make sure you hae 2 deck widths between everything
Thus as the trees grow they will be always be easy to mow around.
