Buying Advice Purchasing first ZTR

[Nightrain1]

I am sure it is doall, like I said, there are many good machines out there. I still like the diesels myself. Plenty of power, longevity, and an inherently 30% more efficient then gas. They do require a little more maintenance, but well worth it imho.

Before you buy, take a look at a Toro ZTR.. I bought a Titan 4800 about 3 years ago and it has been FLAWLESS.. We mow about 2.5 acres every 5 days during the spring and summer... Never leaves a blade standing, always cuts perfect (no scalping) and will mow as fast as you can stand to hang on to it.
The one we bought is basically a residential version with some of the industrial components on it.... Welded deck, greasable shafts, fold-down rests on the seat. Ours has the Briggs on it, but I have noticed that the new year models are offered with Kolher, Briggs, and Kawasaki...

I have owned and used an Exmark since 2001 with 0 problems in 525+ mowing hours.
