It’s finally come time to replace the Kubota zero turn mower. I’m not dead set on any brand, but gonna steer clear of Kubota. Too many issues with this one, whether it’s the Koehler engine the dealer sold me on, or Jesus just isn’t partial to orange, I’m gonna switch brands. Gonna go for the Kawasaki 730cc engine too.
I’ve looked at a couple of mowers with 60” decks to cut my 3 acres. I looked at the Bad Boy Maverick and they’re nice. They’ll finance the normal price of $9200 + tax at 4yr/0% but it’s only got a 2 year warranty. It has a soft ride suspension that’s elastomer pads front and back.
Along the same line is the Hustler Fastrak for $8600 + tax and they’ll finance at 4yr/1.9% with a 4yr - 750hr warranty. It has dual gas tanks for 8.5 gallons with a manual selector valve. The choke is a separate lever. The deck adjustment is not a twist knob. No separate lever for the parking brake to kill the engine if you forget to move it.
Both have the commercial 3200 serviceable transmissions, comfy seats, ROPS, and no lights but kits are available.
Do y’all have any experience with these or other mowers? I’m not against continuing to look around kicking tires of other brands too. I’m a miserly cuss and not interested in a $15,000 gas mower or a $21,000 diesel mower.
