GW If you want a mower that stays in the shop get a cheaper zero turn.If you want to get on it and mow get a Scag.Your too far from me so I hope Im not out of line with this but I own a lawnmower shop and see all the mowers out there,Ive owned them all and mow have a Scag Tiger Cub,48"cut and mow roughly 4 1/2 acres.It takes about 2 hrs cause I stop for a brewsky break.In 5yrs its NEVER broken down on me.IMHO its the only way to go.My wife had a cow when I bought it but she now understands the value of a good piece of equipment.When something gets used that much and never breaks it get cheaper all the time.Also there like a tractor,they dont depreciate much over time.Ive owned them all and you cant beat a Scag.Talk to the commercial mowers that have themand theyll tell you straight,they are the best.If you ddecide to buy a cub cadet because of price get 2 or3 so you can get youre grass cut
