Question about SCAG Mower???

[cgreenway]

Hi, I was interested in purchasing a Scag to mow my yard, the B3030 Kubota does a very good job, But I was just always wanted a zero-turn and a stripper kit and mulcher, but my question is, Scag has a entry level unit in the Tiger cat line, it's 26 hp briggs and 48" cut, for 6499.00, and A unit with a 19 hp Kawasaki and a 48" cut for 7499.00, A grand more, was wondering if that motor was that much better with the brand and less hp???, thanks, for any info.

I imagine there's more difference than just the engine, probably running different hydro pumps or something as well. scag makes good stuff, if you can afford it go for it.

I have a Scag Freedom Z48 with the 26 hp Briggs. I am thrilled with it. The same machine is available with the 19hp Kawasaki which costs approximately $400 more.
