SCUT or FEM for mowing hilly 2 acres

[AxleHub]

We've finally decided to go with the Kubota F2690 with 60" rear discharge mower and 52" quick attach snow blower. The JD 1025R does not correspond to our needs while the Ventrac 4500Y is simply too expensive and there's no dealer service in our area.

I'll post photos when we conclude the sale and get delivery.

Thanks for the advice

So who had the majority decision . You . . Or the Wife ?

Congrats on the F2690. I'm green with envy.

Of course, pics are mandatory when you get it if you want to maintain your status as a TBN member in good standing.

Speaking of which . . I never got a membership card . . No secret decoder ring . . no certificate for my wall . . not even a hearty handshake.

When is the official "I got a tractor" ceremony and reception.

The 2690 should be a great mower congratulations and we want some pics when you get it.

Equal say. I could have been satisfied with the Kubota GF1800 or the Husqvarna R322T, but my wife suffers from arthritis and she has to have power steering. Since she does 75% of the grass cutting and we wanted a FEM, we decided to opt for the Kubota F2690. Still have to finalize the price and delivery with the dealer.

You must be on double secret probation.

I kinda figured I was "on the list" when my secret decoder ring didn't arrive

Didn't consider the grasshopper, it's not 4WD and she's not comfortable with z-turns
