STIHL Zero-Turn

Has anyone seen or bought new of these? I did not know STIHL was now making zero-turns. I wonder how good the suspension is? Only 11,849. LOL

I wonder if these will be a flash in pan. Just that who considers a manufacturer of mostly hand held products to be a source for a rider?

Yup, that's a re-branded Ferris. Ferris is owned by Briggs and Stratton as far as I know, I wonder why Stihl would partner with them?

Technically Ferris is owned by Simplicity which is owned by Briggs and Stratton.

There has been so many mower companies being sold and bought it is getting hard to keep on track of who owns what. Husqvarna was the big buying company a few years ago but Black and Decker and Toro are hitting the ground running the last year or so.

MTD with the purchase of Excel AKA Hustler and Big Dog. And Toro with the purchase of Spartan mowers. And Oregon was sold to Platinum equity. Briggs with the KPS bankruptcy sale.
