MMM for my B7500

[don716]

I'm bouncing back and fourth between the MMM and the RFM for my B7500 and I was wondering about how much they cost? I want an Orange one that matches my tractor.Does anyone else make those in this color other than Kubota and Woods? How high of grass can you cut with a MMM?, and how low can you cut grass?. I think the MMM would look better than the RFM but which one would outlast which with regular weekly mowing? I want something that will last a very long time. What size should I get?, a 60"?
Thanks for the help,

I have the Kubota 60" MMM as part of the package when I bought my 7500 in the spring. I use it to mow 2 1/2 acres. I chose the MMM because I have some fir trees to go around and a MMM is more manuverable than a RFM. I believe the range of adjustment is 1 1/2 - 4 " cut. I have been very happy with this mower as it is well built. You can go taller by lifting the mower up if necessary. A rear mower is good if you have a lot of trees or shrubs that you cannot go under with the tractor; you simply back up to them. But obviously that is time consuming. Whichever way you go my rule of thumb is put the widest cut mower on that you can. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

For lawn mowing I prefer the 60 in. midmount on the b7100 we have. But the loader has to come off to make it real easy around close stuff. Off course if there is loader work the midmount mower has to come off. In soft/rough conditions it is also much easier to get hung up with the midmount.
