Help deciding on mower

Nice mower....those look to be built really well. And your'e right, the first few times you mow with a new zero turn you can't wait till you get to mow again....it's fun work.
 
I think the question isn't for Dale, but for the mower. I wonder if the mower appreciated it? lmao

Don't answer that Dale!

Sharpen the blades a couple times per season, keep them balanced, blow out the air filter (if needed), change the oil, and enjoy it. Chances are you will only put around 15hrs on it this year.
 
I'm in the market. How much, if you don't mind me asking?
How does it do on hills? I have a slight grade behind my house that leads down to the woods.

You should have purchased Uglys' mower! I did a little bit of work on it and it works great. I actually left the Woods brand mower at my parents and keep that one at my house. Works great for an inexpensive zero turn. Just needed some love.

The sticker was $5799 then had a sale price of $5099 then I got him to make it an even $5000 plus tax. I have a small but some steep grade behind my house as well. Mowed Friday right after they delivered it and I had no problems. I wouldn't attemp it when the grass is wet though.
 
Just saw the update..You'll love it man, Gravely's are the best mowers money can buy IMO. We have the exact same one but it's the 60 inch cut and we love it. Congrats!
 
Haha...well, I was mowing the yard of one of the farmers who lets me hunt his property last night. I didn't see the brand new phone book laying in his yard that was left for him. Needless to say this new mower made short work of it. Engine didn't bog or even flinch...lol.

Been there, done that. Mowing properties repoed by the bank it happened to me once. Grass was terribly tall and I didn't see it. Stuff happens. Clean it up and move along. Glad you can laugh about it.
