Bad Boy Zero Turn Mower

I've done some research and have almost decided to pull the trigger on the Bad Boy 60 inch 27 HP ZT Elite Zero Turn mower with the Kohler engine for $5,000. I have to cut about 3.5 acres in south Louisiana. Yah or Nay?

Good solid mowers but not great. Great bang or your buck.

That sounds like a good price. My brothers 50" has a 30 HP though, is 27 HP enough for a 60"?

I just looked at some pics. Looks alot like a Hustler.
Appears to have a good welded deck (really good).
My only concern is that I do not see a chain for hanging the deck.
That means that there has to be some sort of arm solidly connecting the deck to the mower. I'd be a little concerned about that connection point failing over time, unless your land is really smooth.
I may be fuller-o-shite than a christmas turkey, but that's my take. I'd take a closer look at that particular connection point before buying.

Bad Boys own website only rates if for 0-2 acres? and their's nothing 'PRO' about the Kohler Courage 'Pro'! Step up to the CZT, with the Kawasaki FS is twice the engine. It's rated for 0-4 acres?

I've been looking at the Bad Boy 54" at TSC for 3499.
It has a B&S 27hp, how would that compare to the Kawasaki and Kohler? It definitely looks like the vest value for what i need, but kinda worried about the Briggs.

I have a Bad Boy 60" 30HP Kohler Command Pro that cuts 15 acres a week. Deck is very solid and is chain hung in the back. Quality of cut depends on the quality of the blades and deck adjustment (level side to side and correct pitch front to back). I have about 750 hours on it. Had to replace the clutch stack last year; otherwise no problems.
I think a 60" 27HP mower is more than you really need for your acreage, but it would certainly knock it out in short order.
