Message: <blockquote data-quote="_CY_" data-source="post: 2768154" data-attributes="member: 7629">glad you asked .. my G1900 3 cylinder 18hp diesel is waaay over powered for what I mow. one can generally raise diesel hp up by about 50% when comparing against small gasoline engines. this hoss uses the same 3cylinder diesel as compact Kubota tractors like B1800. since I'm mowing a piddy 1/2 acre which is considered a large yard in the city .. I've got Kubota G1900 with 989 hours up for sale at $3450. reason for bring up is to compare prices for a commercial quality mower like a used Kubota G1900 vs paying about the same $$$ for a new consumer mower that's no where near the durability or quality. but do stick with only low hour machines .. stay away from gear that's got say  6,000+ hours, although it's not unusual for diesel equipment to go those kind of hours and still be running strong.</blockquote>
