Re: Zero turn mower vs. 60\" Mid or rear mount
70 Boss; As you know, CUT's or sub-compacts are the best compromise machines going. The capabilities of a lawn mower and the ability to do some serious work in one handy package. I have had a BX for 3.5 years and it does a great job mowing and has done done some work that I could never have done with a garden tractor.
Howevere, IMHO, there is nothing better than having specialized machines if you can afford it. I have a long range plan to acquire a ZTR mower and possibly replace the BX with a larger CUT. This is not something that I have to do, as the BX does a fine job; rather something I would like to do. I would say your plan is probably a good one. One thought about the Bobcat, you lose the three point hitch and towing abilities (although there are quick tach implements for the skidsteer.) Don't know how important that is toyou.
