We really enjoy our LS XR3135HC, too, cford36. However, we don't have the MMM. We use a zero-turn to mow the yard, and a rotary cutter for the pasture. I'm not convinced the 3135 would make a good general mower. It's almost 1400 lbs heavier than the Kubota B2650. I looked at several tractors, including the B2650, before deciding on the LS. Had lawn mowing been a primary requirement, I think I would have went with something less likely to tear up the lawn.

That's true. I'm not going to use mine for mowing.
