Guilty as charged. Thats what I get for stopping in the Pit first yesterday
Well, i had to be directed to the thread, so all good!Guilty as charged. Thats what I get for stopping in the Pit first yesterday
But it's still Walker or bust, for me. And I agree, the brush mower or 12" chipper would suit the OP's need
Had a big Dixie chopper and a walk behind exmark when I cut lawns. Had a buddy come cut with me one day, he said he had run a zero turn before and I used the walk behind for slopes and tight areas so it took a little more skill. I let him take the Dixie, Well don’t ya know it the fucker took right off into the middle of the street with it and ended up in the ditch across the road. I walked over after watching it go down, before I could even finish asking “what the fuck was that?” He said “that damn sumbitch is fast as hell” he still swears to this day that the mower was at fault but I’m pretty sure he’s just a fucking idiot. Chalked it up as an $1100 lesson. Don’t trust other people.
Never trust anyone, and that includes yourself.
I would add that the Ventrac 4500 is a beast of a little machine, comes with a diesel option, and has a lot of attachments for large scale brush clearing as well as large scale lawn care.
Hell yes, the Ventrac is one of the best machines on the market by a freaking mile. Smokes anything made by John Deere or Kubota in my humble opinion.
I second the Scag 61 followed closely behind by a Kubota. Engine is up to you, I have owned them all and had issues with each. Kawi have had bent pushrods, B&S burned oil like a mosquito fogger when filled to proper level (since new) but ran for 1500 hrs like this till one of my DA operators knocked the air filter off and trashed it.
