Default My new addition

I have been using a 26 year old riding lawn mower. 28" cut. 8 hp. It has been a great one, but it's time for a change. Yesterday I pulled the trigger on this beauty.

It's a Gravely 34", 16 hp, zero turn. I love it. I had to get rid of my previous zero turn after the divorce. I'm glad to have one again. I have a medium sized yard, and I had no idea that they made one this small. I can get around all my stuff no problem.

I'm a complete yard geek.

Awesome. I gotta look at riders when I get home. Buddy has a JD LA105 w/bagger he bought just so his wife wouldn't have to use the push mower while he was deployed. Sell it to me for $500 off retail

If you are looking at riders, I strongly recommend the ZTs. They take some getting use to, but once you do, they kick ass.

Or if you are like us and also need the versatility of a regular tractor, get one with glide steering. We may not be able to zero turn but ours will turn circles around a 5 gallon bucket as well as move our trailer or anything else we want to do with it like plow snow.

Not sure how ZT are on hills but ours rocks! I've been having to mow my grandparents yard (next door). They have some major (steep) hills and I've not had any issues.

Like this, but we have bar tires. http://www.kubota.com/product/GR2010/GR2010.aspx
