Soon to be a Ferris 700 52" 27hp Briggs owner, Suppose to be here tomorrow or Sat. Anticipation, I'm hoping for a smooth ride. I have on old Snapper 48"ZTR With the single joy stick. Its a great mower but its like an old buck board. My body can't take it anymore. I may even purchase an air ride seat for it. We shall see how it goes. I cut about 8 acres, So its a work out. I also have a Kubota 3430 with a 6' finish mower. Glade to be on this site for valuable info. and to see what others are doing. I live in N. Fl. And retired so I'll have lots of time to fiddle with my new toy. Thanks for having me, Rosco:smile:
