Best commercial zero turn?

[Industrial Toys]

Maybe a landscapers site would be best to ask. I think high priced parts are alright if the thing last forever before it needs parts. That's the key of good commercial equipment. Even with the abuse they regularly get, they just keep going. Initial cost of course is higher, but in my mind, worth it.

Low hour Kubota Diesel ZT just went here at auction on the weekend for 8K CDN.

Anyone have any experience with Bush Hog brand zero turns?

Walker does a lot more that groom high end lawns these days. Watch this video all the way through and check out the awesome features on a 37 hp. out front read discharge mower. The title of the thread is BEST commercial zero turn. I think Walker is right up there with the best. You will pay a premium for them.

Does anyone here have any experience with the Toro MyRide operator suspension system?

Just bought a Titan MyRide 60 inch today. My 40+ year old Deines crapped the bed yesterday. One hydro all but quit. At a thousand each, not going that route. Have been searching a bit, ride system seemed good. Went for test ride, sweet, not hard to convince me to buy. Not commercial, not diesel but will fill the bill for this old body. Pick it up tomorrow as we had too much other stuff to do in the city. Bought at a local dealer.

What model was your Deines?

Got a new Bad Boy Maverick a couple weeks ago. Love it...but probably would have liked several others I looked at too. Mowed a few acres in roughly half the time of tractor and brushhog and it looks like a golf course now instead of, well, brushhogged. I look forward to mowing now too...hope that lasts a long time. Need traction tires though and maybe a bigger gas tank... the Kawi sucks the gas down.

Please keep us (me) posted on your experience with it. That's a model I'm considering.

The old Deines is an 1800, 60 inch. Kohler Magnum 18. May have to look at possibly rebuilding the hydro if possible, to sell it. Runs great, just a tad hard on the body now as I get older. They really haven't changed much over the years.
I will be cutting this aft with the Toro, will post results.

That's a first that I heard of a Kawi sucking gas down. What are you comparing to?
