Shawk--you'll help me figure out how to defer all payments--right??

I seriously would consider the RFM, as it is a viable option to the ZTR. This statement is coming from one who has done both. I do not regret in any way getting the 757, as it is a great machine, but for me--I would have gotten the RFM again and used that to mow with.

Thanks for the replies so far. I've now had the chance to drive the 3320, 3203, 757 and a 2520 with RFM. I've eliminated the 3203 (ROPS won't fit, no PB in case of backhoe in future) and the 757 was pretty easy to drive, and climbed hills like I coudn't believe. The RFM wasn't bad--but with all of my trees, buildings, and other obstacles I can't see making it work. I am also hoping that the 757 is small enough that I can get my wife to help with mowing--or wait till my son is old enough (what is old enough to run one anyway??). Waiting on trade-in quotes.

Well... is the 2520 still in the stable ? :D

Still in the stable--for now. I've got a quote from one dealer, waiting on one from another. Seems like the deal is possible--trade-in is somewhat painful, but made up for in no tax gain (would have to sell outright for at least 1,000.00 more than trading in). I will also be getting quotes from the local Kubota dealer to ensure that I am getting a good trade-in deal. I'll post any results.

Update--3320/300CX and 757 on the way. Thanks for all of the feedback. 757 is available now, 3320 may have to wait a week or so to get the larger R4's, toothbar, deluxe hood guard etc.
I did drive a 3203 with a RFM--I can see that type of combo working great on some slightly open terrain than what I have. I could also see me taking out a lot stuff around the house (I rarely look back with the LX-5 on, and would be sure I would forget at just the wrong time with the RFM on).

You are not going to regret that change.

On the 757 - my wife has taken the 757 away from me - it is too much fun to mow with and she loves it.

D--great, is she available to come up and give my wife some training? Seriously--one of the reasons for going this way was the hope that my wife (and son when older) will be able (and willing) to mow while I am doing work on the 3320 at the same time.
