I have a Grasshopper that I've been using since 1995. I am considering buying a new mower and want an outfront deck and preferably diesel. I am considering a Grasshopper 725d, but would like to know what people have to say about Walker or anyother suggestions for outfront mowers. Thank you

Walkers are SUPERB mowers, but are very expensive.
Doth are excellent mowers...
don't overlook the Hustler Diesel ... Hustler Turf Products - Commercial Mowers - Hustler Z Diesel
My favorite mower and it's built here in Kansas... :smile:KennyV

The walker diesel is nice 23.5 hp yanmar 60" cut $14995.00. But you are limited to flat ground the Ventrac is the best out front deck tractor you will find. At just a little over $20000.00 you can have an all purpose machine.
Does any of these companys offer an outfront mower deck
Hustler does ... it is in the industrial line.... Hustler Turf Products - Golf Mowers - 3700
or any of their 4000 series, also industrial line....

So does Exmark (it is like the Walker mower).
(Exmark Manufacturing - Products)
Ferris makes a 3-wheel out-front mower:
