Hi all,
I'm considering picking up a ZTR for my lawn. It's probably 1/2 acre, lots of obstacles and turns. I'm currently looking at two options:
1. A used Dixon 33" mower, no bagger for $990 on CL. I need a bagger and would buy one for it from a dealer, I'm not sure what the price will be.
2. A Snapper 44" from a local dealer with bagger for roughly $3600. The snapper has been on his floor for quite a while and he's selling me the mower itself for $2,679, the dealer-cost sheet he showed me has a cost of $2,879, retail from my online searches is around $33-3,600.
From what I've read on here, Snapper doesn't have the greatest following. From everything I've heard about Dixon, they're good machines, but this one is used and smaller.
Any thoughts on each machine separately or one vs. the other?
