Well my Gravely has finally bit the dust after 13 years. I wanted to see if you guys had any recommendations. Wife says I don't need an industrial lawn mower.

I don't know what you need but does you or your wife do the mowing? Should there be some scene control here?
Another Hustler fan. I have one Fastrac and a SuperZ. Both have Kawasaki engines.
Stay away from the Raptor if you're looking for longevity of your equipment.

I was in my local mower show and they have a brand called Ferris that looks like it is built like a tank. Equipped with a suspension system with shocks and three different brand of engines. Of course they say it's the best mower out there but who knows.

Ferris 1500, going on 10 yr old, never put a wrench on it, except for a new battery and drive belt!

I've heard good things about Ferris and the ExMark. Both good mid priced equipment.
