Zero Turns.

Today I learned that ducking under an 8-inch diameter live oak branch isn't enough if you have a roll bar on the mower. I also learned that if you hit a big live oak branch with that bar you will do one hell of a wheelie.

o Ya. Should have warned you about that...

How many neighbors see you do that ??

Sounds like you’ve never driven a tractor with ROP. ROOKIE! [emoji23]

He's a Kane Brown kind of country boy. I kid. I kid.

Ha. The ones I've driven either had a full cab or would just smash you like my grandfather's old Ford 5000. .

Hey now, If it weren't for me it's likely you would've never made it out of Mississippi. Trying to stop at a gas station at night with about 30 people hanging around outside. Yeah, it's a rural gas station, but it's awful dark over there, keep driving.

For those who don;t know. In the south we have a ton of Redneck black people, most of them are good people who work and hunt deer like we do, but that doesn't mean they like white people.

None that I know of. But I did hop off and look around to see if there was anyone rolling on the ground.

I opened up the woods in our backyard and planted more grass. Wanted a bigger deck walk behind but fell into a great deal on a Toro time cutter 4200.

Jumping back in this pool. Looks like Hustler and Toro prices are about the same now. With the increases of everything else, I'm thinking I need to buy now or be stuck paying this guy $40 a mow. Which is pretty nice, but I expect him to have a big increase in that this year. I also entertained BadBoy, but they are also close to Toro price.

I’ve been kicking around the idea of getting a new one, too. I’ve got two (2) cub cadets with 60” decks, each one with around 400 hours. They’ve been pretty well maintained. Thinking about selling or trading them both in and upgrading to a Gravely or a Spartan.

Nothing getting any cheaper. Problem with that is nothing last like it used to either. So it isn't like I'm buying my last mower.

"It's not how fast ya mow, it's how well ya mow fast"

I decided to keep my mowing and hobby work (tractor) separate, given the lay of our land. With less than 2hrs on her to date, I cant stop smiling. 60" deck and 9-10mph frees up hrs./week!

I did a lot research, it came down to JD/Scag/Ferris as expected.

I test rode/mowed a Hustler and really liked it! Very nice mower, IMO

 

[giles]

Wanted a high back seat, arm rest and suspension...ended up with a 60"

Cup holder?

He just bought a really expensive chair for the summer gathering

 

[giles]

Damnit, Jon! I told you to stay away from him!!! Bad influence

 

[finelyshedded]

As high as it looks like it rides Dave’s gonna feel like he’s 5’10”!
I swear, if he’s sittin in that thing around a TOO fire this summer I’m gonna blow a snot bubble!

Is there a Bad Boy dealer network now? I know Tractor Supply sells them. I've talked to factory reps at trade shows before. I just haven't seen an actual dealership anywhere yet. Is there one close to you?
