Probably the World's last too. I can't see how those tracks would NOT tear up a lawn. My dozer is "zero turn" but It'll dig a trench in soft soil or grass when turning. And it has street-cleats not those high traction bars. Rubber or not, you'll tear up the lawn.

I can see it successful. There is a niche market for lower cost lawnmowers that can handle slopes well. Bet you can put this together cheaper than a Ventrac.

Starting cost $13,600. Tracks and cheap don’t belong in the same sentence. The whole thing is pointless. If you can’t mow it with tractor tires on a regular ZT it doesn’t need mowed. I’ve sure it’s a rough cut mower only too. It would destroy grass.

Slope mowers are expensive and under $14k if it can handle difficult areas a bargain. Look at what Steiners and Ventracs cost. It's not meant for a flat manicured lawn. Great video showing capabilities.

Check out the deck.

Cool idea Id love to demo it. I wonder how much ground tear up there is on tight turns? The machine will be way lighter than a skidsteer.

The look on this guy's face is saying, "Oh crap, I tore-up the lawn on this $5 million dollar house". Look in the background along the walking path and behind the mower. Is that the look you want around a pond? :eek:

Looks like it would slide sideways easily
They also sell wheeled versions.
