New Deck

[murph1]

Anyone seen or bought the new Ventrac Hydraulic tilt deck? Wanting to know any experience with it. Would have to trade my old one in.

I have seen some things on Facebook about it. I don't know much but would defiantly like to learn more? Is it basically the same deck with just a hydraulic lift or are there any other benefits over the older 72.

The deck is different as seen in this ad Ventrac

Murphy, your "old" mower could not be that old. I know my old back would appreciate hydraulic lift on my contour, that beast is heavy! The new series of decks are touted to be of heavier stock and better bearings/spindles. Also seem to have some design features to help avoid snagging fences or building walls.

I called it my old one so not to confuse anyone. Never said it was a antique.

I'd be interested in how much they give you for a trade in. Which one do you currently have?

I have a 60" side discharge about 4 years old.

Mine has less than 160 hours. Not quite 2 years old. 72" side discharge. I'd like the hydraulic lift as well.
