Go look at a Ferris and picture it orange and white.

I know who makes it I work at a Stihl dealer and we carry the mowers. Just wondering what others thought of it if they owned one.

Both of the local JD/Stihl dealers carry Ferris and not the Stihl mowers.

The zero turn market is highly competitive and saturated. Stihl is obviously banking on their brand name to sell these mowers. I believe it is a good looking mower, however, they are expensive and are very late to be introduced to the market. Time will tell. Yes, they are built on the Ferris platform.

Well, Stihl had Zenoah originally made their trimmers\blowers\etc to test the waters before making more than just chainsaws.

I am not endorsing Stihl, just saying.
