The extras are tempting!!! My Scag Tiger Cub/48"deck/26HP B&S with a Scag collection system was $9,600, tax included, in 2008. However my next machine will have the HD particle separating air filter assembly which I feel is important particularly with a collection system and the dust that it circulates around the rear of the machine.
I know that prices have gone up but the Tiger Cat, formerly Tiger Cub, has been upgraded to a foldable ROPS and cast iron deck spindles as standard equipment. My Tiger Cub has a rigid ROPS and cast aluminum deck spindles. I really would have prefered the foldable ROPS.
