I believe this to be true on the selling price. I bought mine and total with taxes was $5100.00. Soooo, how would you like to save about $900.00 and buy mine? I will tell you the reason for wanting to sell. You can't put a striper kit on the Z. You can't put the better hitch on the Z. It will only run about 7-8mph and I would like the swing out tanks that aren't offered on the Z. Now let me give you the selling points. If none of that matters to you or will never matter, than this is a great machine. It will mow as fast as it will run. I have a 60" deck and a 27hp Kohler Courage Pro. This mower is made heck for stout and is relatively easy to service. Since I've had it, I put the rubber mat on the floor plate, added headlights and an oil filter relocation kit to make my oil changes way easier. If I sell this unit, it will be to buy another Bad Boy. How is that for a sales pitch. When I priced these Zero turns, nothing else came close for as rugged as this thing was built. My mower is out of warranty but it has less than 100 hrs. on it and I have all the service information since it was new. It was broken in right and the fluids have been changed on it and I would service it again before I let it go. It also has two sets of blades. I really have not been serious about getting rid of it but at the time, I couldn't afford the higher priced mower. Keep the thread going none the less and maybe I can learn a few more things about the Bad Boy, good or bad.
