Hello all, I am a homeowner in search of a zero turn as my toro rider of 15 years died at 300 some hours sigh....
I have several slopes and a front bank, however a neighbor with a exmark came over and had no issues going up, down, even diagonal on it.
Money is absolutely a deciding factor, so jumping up even 500 more in the line is not going to happen.
It is 1.5 acres to mow.
That said, i really like the kubota kommander48 and i am comparing it to the airens and gravely 52.
My local dealer both are close, in fact i have 3 kubota dealors in 15-20 min and 1 gravely/airens dealer in same range. I also have exmark toro and hustler, really like the fastrack but not spending 5799 for a 54 or 5599 for a 48.
how about the kolhler on the airens vs the kawi on the gravely? i have been quotes 4899 for the 52 maxzoom and 200 more for the gravely with the kawi?
he stocks the airens would order the gravely.
He doesnt seem to want to move off his prices, in fact the kubota dealor is the same, there i was looking at the 48 e series.
the reason i want to stay under 5000 is everything just explodes and before you know it im buying a 10k mower to mow my grass, sigh, if i cant get a quality mower for under 5k than im going to box store junk, sad to say but have to draw a line someplace and 5k is it.
in fact i was considering the 48 maxzoom, but not sure how to trim with the 48, the 52 has enough of an overhang to stick into beds, and under trees.
So long winded and rambling but any thoughts?
