I sold a lot of these machines while i worked at lowes and we ate a lot of them. Good engines. Hydrostats are their downfall. $2500 is a lot for a mower with a lot of problems. Go with john deere.

Get a zero turn. You won't regret it.
Stop jackin JADA. Yeah, what he said. I don't want a mower with great hydrolics and a crappy motor tho. Word is that Briggs has headed way downhill the last several years and Koler is right there with them.
Great idea. I'll put up the down payment if you'll foot the bill for the rest.Quote:

Dadgummit! I don't tolt ya'll not to say "John Deere, Exmark, Kubota or what not. I want model numbers and I want 'em now along with what makes that a great mower and don't make me tell you again.Quote:

Briggs has always been crap. Their only plus was that they were cheap and easy to work on. Kawasaki or Honda is the only way to go. Take out a loan and get a commercial zero turn that will last you the next 20 years. Exmark is prolly the best deal for the money. Gonna cost ya up front, but it's lots cheaper than getting a new $2500 mower every 5 years.
