[AT] OT - zero turn mowers

[Lane Freeman]

I bought a Cub Cadet Commercial Zero Turn Last Fall and I'd never go back to
a tractor mount belly mower. I was using a NH 25HP diesel with 72 inch belly
mower. The Zero turn is 31HP with 72 inch deck and cut my mowing time in
half.  It will go through high grass at full speed which would have stalled
my NH.at a crawl.   From what I'm told this is mainly due to the depth of
the commercial deck.  I can also mow most everything without having to go
back with a push mower to trim.  Probably one of the best equipment
investments I've ever made.
