best zero turn $3000

What is the zt mower for 4 acres with some slope? I have a JD LA145 and looking to speed up the Process.

Thanks.

Tagging along... I don't have that much to mow but I got tight spaces, all different slopes and obstacles. Eying the Kubota Z122 myself and the 42in is $3899 a bit more than your target and their 48in is $4500. Sounds like you need a bigger deck than I do. Good luck.

Best ZTR for $3k-$4k IMO is a used commercial grade unit. Scag, Exmark, Hustler, Bobcat, Bunton, Toro, etc. Many out there.

I wouldn't buy anything from the big box stores, they just aren't the same machines you find at the dealers, and when something goes wrong, they are no help.
I agree, if you can find a used commercial model that isn't worn out you will have a better machine to attack that much grass.

Someone needs to come get my Grasshopper 721-D (Kubota diesel powered) with 61" deck for $4,200.00 bucks..... It's low houred, ready to go, and works just fine...

THAT'S the best deal for a good mower I know of, or even heard of for any where near that money...

Wow... that does sound like a great deal. What year and how many hours (just curious)?

 

[Sawyer Rob]

It has around 800 hours on it, I'd have to look and I've owned it about 8 or 9 years... I can't remember the exact year...

Then that sounds like a heck of a bargain... good luck!

SR, which transmission is in your 721D - the Gemini or the G2?

IMO a used commercial machine. Every $3000 new zero turn I have seen is junk. Diesel powered would be nice, but you won't find one for $3000.
