    Yesterday. Would you buy and EV?

    I don't know how bumpy your ground is, but keep in mind, the ride on your tractor is likely much smoother than it will be on the EGO. I know this for a fact because on the tractor you have a much larger foot print to absorb irregularities on the ground. I wasn't prepared for how much I would be...

    Yesterday. Would you buy and EV?

    I don't always mow everything, every time. So I can't say. I will say I could likely go another half hour after the first one and a half hours if I had a need. Recharge time is very fast, and if I had the need, there are slots for two additional batteries. I also like the built in port for a...

    Yesterday. Would you buy and EV?

    I could mow more, but the rest of my acreage is only suitable to mow with my bush hog. No riding mower could handle it.

    Yesterday. Would you buy and EV?

    I waited a long time for local dealers to get the EGO ZT. Price with veterans discount, $5,000. But because Lowes accidentally delivered the floor model, the let me use it for a week before bringing a new one, and gave me another $200.00 discount. I love the flexibility of this mower. From...

    Little to NO Tractors

    My poor dealer doesn't have any tractors. The problem seem to be: loaders aren't coming from KMW, tires and wheels aren't coming from the supplier. What's worse is, they receive tractors based on a quota. If they meet the quota and above, next year they get more tractors. But, you can't make...

    Carpenter Bee Wars

    I run a a zip tie up into every hole in order to kill the eggs, or larvae, and I leave it in there. In addition, I have a few brown lunch bags I fill with enough material to make the bag pooched out to resemble a hornet nest. Before filling the bag you need to crumple it so it looks more...

    Suspension Seat 15 Series

    I need to replace the original seat with a more comfortable one. My dealer doesn't have one which is a direct fit. Has anyone replaced their seat with a suspension type? How difficult was it to do? I believe all of the 15 series used the identical seat.
