Mowing Saving Fuel

[dodge man]

The offset mowers I'm talking about have an engine on them, and yeah, its not going to save any fuel, but it will be faster.

That looks like a blast! I love the way a tractor feels when it's pulling something. I can only imagine what a rush it is to see the grass clippings flying off of those reels. :thumbsup:

Andy: You are right! Nothing better than waching all that grass fly and hearing the 2 cylinder engine pulling. IMHO, the 48 B has way more torque than my JD 4400, and the B will pull mutch better. Guess it is the torque from two large cylinders!

Mowing is my biggest fuel use. My 1996 27 HP Cub Cadet did pretty well on fuel with my 72 inch groomer, but it beat the tar out of me on our bumpy mole and elk conditioned hilly ground. My new 2010 41 HP LS with the bigger wheels and suspension seat makes the ride way better on my 5th lumbar disc, but the fuel consumption is the price I am paying. Just got my annual off road diesel delivery (three months early). $621.39 -- ouch!
