It will be $7300 with taxes, shipping and setup. Just trying to make myself feel better about the high cost. Thanks for the info.

My prices were 5,820 & 6,420 for the 540 & 540 respectfully with 54" deck. So the 600 difference is consistent. You may have some room to work on price but prices seem to be regional and you may be getting the best price for your regionI would have paid that difference, but my dealer would not throw in the HDAP tires with the 540. So my difference would have been almost a grand. I am very pleased with my 530. Very powerful and smooth running & mowing machine. You won't go wrong either way. Good lick with your decision.

Did you have to pay shipping? Yeah i guess since he is throwing in the hdap tires it makes it a better deal. I'll try to get him to an even $7000. Let's see what happens. NYC is ruff to get deals.

I didn't have to pay shipping. They had both machines on the lot and I took my trailer with me. My price for the 540 with HDAP tires was 6,720 + tax, so your price is in line since this was the lowest price I got and from my closest dealer to boot. If you have hills, you will appreciate the HDAP tires. My 530 is far ahead of any mower I've ever owned and I enjoy using it a lot.

Nice! I had to order my tractor. There was no shipping fee, but I did have to pay a bit more than you are paying. I also got the 48" deck, but no HDAP tires. Here in Florida, zero turn mowers are very popular. They sell many more ZT's than tractors No local dealers keep anything larger than X300 series tractors in stock. Makes it tougher to get a deal when you have to order them.

Will provide pics as soon as i get it. I also had the dealer install the mulching kit with blades. I'm not getting a bagger any time soon. I'm wondering how good is the kit in general? Should i have just stayed with the regular blades and side discharging?

Congrats!! I know your gonna like it. I've been pondering the mulching kit or gator blades myself and will be interested in the responses. I have to say, I am impressed with the overall cut of the factory blades though. The clippings are dispersed much finer than my previous mowers. I've always had to take the plastic chute off my mower decks to scatter the clippings, but so far I have left the chute on my 530 and I am happy with the way it cuts up and dispersed the clippings. I mowed some pretty tall grass around my pond this weekend and it left a nice finish with just one pass. Would have had to run over it 2-3 times with the old mower to achieve the same results.
