Thanks. I was also looking at the Swisher website. They have a rough cut mower that can mount side saddle to an ZTV or UTV. It retails for around $1200.00 but maybe it would be a viable option. I could pull it around with the Gator if it were a reasonable alternative. The only question I would have is truly how much can one adjust its track outward?? I would need at least two feet.

The sickle is nice because the felled grass can slow future growth. I guess some dislike this.

Swisher is a hit/miss company. The M-I-L bought a 44" trail mower for behind her GT. The battery selection deal for the unit was a major fiasco. The book called for a battery that did not fit. The battery box was teeny. I tried to help in dealing with Swisher and it wasn't easy going. I don't recall the whole outcome, but IIRC there was a ground issue where the battery would not charge, and the first belt was eaten in short order due to a cotter pin cutting it. Major PITA to take apart, but once assembled properly it does seem to work good.
