BION, I am looking forward to mowing today with my new toy that I bought yesterday. Hopefully, rain will hold off enough to get everything cleaned up around here. If you’re in the market for a new zero turn, you should take a look at Hustler. I searched long and hard, and decided on the Fastrak. Happy mowing!

It’s never fun, but that thing will surely make it not take as long.

What/who's motor has it got? There were two to pick from on this particular model, Kohler 27hp and Kawasaki 23hp. I got the Kawasaki. After talking with folks and reading reviews, Kawasaki was hands down, the favorite.

I’ve always wanted some acreage, but that right there scares me off a bit

Dude, that is sweet. My only problem with that is getting around too many overhanging limbs and trees and tight spots overhead. I’ll prolly drop the ROPS down for a while until I can whack some overgrowth along some fence lines. Once we get this place cleaned up more, I will most definitely look into the sunshade. I didn’t know they had that. TY

Nice XTR! OP I'm in the same boat as you. Just bought a new Bad Boy Maverick last week, only mowed once. Went with the Maverick because of the suspension; my land is very rough and bumpy.
