Hello,

I've come across a dealer who has 3 2009 and one 2010 Ferris IS 2000s in stock - and he's got them pretty attractively priced ($7K-$8K range).

It looks as though the 2009 IS 2000s don't have the ICD decks. And these decks don't have the striping kit.

Any reason to pass up these offers and buy a 2011 instead? Was there any major changes to the IS2000 between 2008 and 2011 (other than the deck)?

He has 3 52" deck and 1 61" deck, I'd debating which to buy, but I know I want an IS 2000 - any experiences with these 61" decks scalping?

All units have 25 or 26 hp Kawasaki motors.

This dealer actually let me load up a demo IS 2000 and take it home - its sitting on my trailer in my garage right now - so I'm fired up to give it a try on my home turf tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice!

Darren

Lawnsite.com has some info on these type of mowers. Ferris is owned by Briggs and Stratton and they use Kawi moters in them! :confused2:
