My only concern would be that the 749s 4WD system is brand new, so any problems may not have surfaced yet. Other than that, it's a top of the line machine - if you've got the bux, go for it!

Regarding the collection system (either of those would be powerflow setups, right?) just be aware that it's really, really wide! I have a powerflow / MC519 rig on my 60" deck, and there's no question of fitting it into the shed with the powerflow on - just not going to happen. If you have a place to back up and dump, the 519 makes sense, otherwise the 3-bag may be a bit more maneuverable.
