They are definitely nice machines. I wouldn't go to a 72, that's a big lower that will leave bad cuts in anything not golf course smooth. What I liked about the 60 is that the outside of the tires are even with the outside of the deck. It's a big, heavy, wide mower, rides like a dream

I don't understand the deck deal...stamped, welded, fabricated? What do these mean?

Stamped decks are a thin sheet of metal that is pressed over a mold to form a one-piece, weaker deck. Fabricated/Welded decks are welded out of thicker steel plate and much more heavy duty. If you have an un-even, bumpy area to mow or any bunchgrass, you don't want stamped.

This. If you have uneven terrain get a commercial grade mower. If it's smooth you can get residential but I hear the ones from the big box stores are inferior than the same models from a dealer or farm and garden store.

If your dropping that kind of dollar you want a fabricated deck no doubt.

Appreciate it. That was my next question. I saw some Hustlers at Lowes...I take it these would be cheaper built models ?

From my understanding, absolutely. I have no personal experience though. My first ztr was the Scag and its commercial and a tank.
