King of the lawn!

[TwistedCU]

That's how I felt when I cut mine with this new addition to the lawn care arsenal:

22 HP 675cc Kawasaki motor 50" cutting deck and when you run full throttle, you're flyin'!!! As quick as I cut the lawn today (couldn't wait), I should have gotten one back when I bought this place. What used to take the better part of a day was cut to 1 hour. I don't even need a pushmower anymore because this baby get all the harder to reach spots.

Now if it would only weed-whack too :lol:

Use those in my line of work, Exmark Lazer Z 72"... The zero steer thing still blows my mind, those things will go just about anywhere...

Awesome!

I looked at Xmark and Bobcat. I would have loved one but I could buy two of the one I got for their prices, and have money to spare :shock:

Man I gotta wait for it to grow back to run it again .

C'mon rain!!!

I use a lawn tractor at my place. I put a snow shovel in front for winter. I sure would prefer the zero turn radius for the lawn and garden, though... I still have to get the old lawn mower out for the edges...

have you waxed it yet?

My wife couldn't believe me when I washed and waxed my new lawn tractor the first summer I had it..8)

Nice machine, TC! 8)

You need this beastie ... I get to use it when we've got a lot of large parks to do... Not zero steer, but 16 feet of cutting gets 'er done... Daresay you could turn that hour into 10 minutes... urple:

And good call on the cub cadet... I agree with you on the price thing; you could buy a Jeep for what you'd spend on the Exmark, and we've been having problems with the blade spindles failing left and right... Congrats

I bought a new John Deere hydrostatic riding mower this spring. It's pretty nice. Got two cup holders, lumbar adjustment and yes, Cruise Control.
I'm with you on the weedeater thing. The Husqvarna does pretty good. I don't mind the weedeating so much as having to swap shorts for pants.

Have I waxed my tractor? Darn tootin'!

I bought the high pressure sprayer for the Jeep... Uh huh! Just bought the high pressure sprayer a year before I got the jeep, but I did have the lawn tractor...

Just don't tell anyone, OK?

There was a monster Cub Cadet tractor there. It was 27 hp and had a 54" deck . They had a John Deere too. Both were about the same $$$ as the one I got. It had a hood latch and the hood raised from the front with hydraulic cylinders. Oh uh huh (Tim Allen style). I thought about it, and also thought about the zero turn tractor, but in the end I remembered what I was there for...

To trade dollars for time. Hence the zero-turn. I have but one cup holder, but there's another little bin that could hold a couple on reserve in ice :lol:

Anybody want to buy a Craftsman 6.5hp rear wheel drive mower/mulcher/bagger with a one-lever deck adjustment? Did I mention that I don't need a push-mower anymore?

The John Deere I bought is an 06 model and they knocked about $700 off. So I bought the bagger attachment that goes with it.
