I'm new to the forum and just bought a 32 HP Big Block Vanguard last week for my wife.
She has a TORO 23 HP 52 inch deck that she just loves but it is 14 years old and still in good shape but she said she wanted a new one.
The TORO has a mulching kit under it and a home made striping kit that lays down some nice stripes and she just loves it. They wanted to give
us change for it for a trade in so we just kept it.
So the bar was set, will the new IS3200Z 61" ICD match up to the old TORO? So far the answer is NO.
It is leaving a trail of grass on the right side of the mower and she has to double cut to get rid of it so it does not save time.
I am in the process of checking the deck set up the way the owners manual says it should be, I hope it is that simple.

The stripes in the picture are from the TORO. The new Ferris has the striping kit on it but it is too high to lay down a good stripe, I will be working on that too.
I have not contacted the dealer yet.
