Saw this not too long ago. A dixie chopper XCaliber Twin zero turn with 2 27 horse Generac engines.....For a total of 54 HP! 74 inch deck, 14 gallon fuel tank, my only question is, isn't this a little bit overboard?

Didn't even think about that! Gas around here is close to $3.50 a gallon. $49.00 To fill it to the top once!

Yeah, seriously! I wouldn't want to use it commercially or on super large yards! :eek:

It might or might not be overkill, I don't know, but I would think you would need lots of power for a beast like that!

True, but on any commercial mower like a Hustler Super z or something, they have max engines of usually close to 37 Horse power. I imagine they do just fine, and so why would you need 54 horsepower, with two gas guzzling engines instead of one?
