Hiya guys,
My first post here! Just wanted a little info to help me clear some things up... I'm looking at purchasing a Branson 2810/3510 w/ FEL, 5' BB, & 5' BH. I can get the 2810 with everything for $13,790 or the 3510 for $15,590. The catch is, I have about 1.8 acres that I will be mainly mowing (85% of the time) but I do help out the friends and family when needed (moving brush, digging ditches etc) so I want something strong enough to help but not so big I look stupid mowing a yard with a $13k lawn mower! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
I live in a pretty rural section of North Carolina with the nearest Branson dealer about 7 miles away. I like the Branson's look and stance. I have did my homework (for about 2 months now) and found that the Branson has the best bang for the buck. I have other dealers close to me also (Kioti, NH, MF etc.) They are all in-line but usually $500 to $2500 higher and most of the units don't look as sturdy as the Branson does.
The only other question I have is: Is hydrostatic better than Synchromesh in terms of reliability or does it even matter?
Thanks guys! I enjoy reading the forums here, they help me tremendously.
PS. Give Branson/Century their own thread!!
