[QUOTE="-Pjackso, post: 3424291, member: 8119"] As for brands - I think most big names are equally good, it's just what color you like best. What's important is what DEALERS are nearby. You will need parts at some point. Find a dealer and look at the various levels of mowers available (residential versus commercial). Try to skip entry-level and aim for mid-level or commercial-level. The (mid/commercial) level mowers get you rebuild-able components, thicker decks, thicker spindles, more robust parts. The (mid/commercial) mowers are heavier which makes for a better ride. The entry-level stuff bounces you around a lot. Suspension can be added with flex-forks on the front. Higher end seats help too (spring cushion). $3K is a good start - but that'll only get you entry level stuff. Nothing heavy duty. Use the $3K as the down-payment, and look for 0% financing to ease the pain on the rest. Measure your gates -BEFORE- you buy. :) Buy as big a cutting-deck as you can manage. I really like my my Hustler Super-Z. Hustler has been in the zero-turn commercial business for decades. [/QUOTE]
