I Demo'ed a Kubota Zero Turn yesterday

My neighbor owns a dealership and Kubota pays him to get people to use the thing. Wow. What an incredible piece of machinery. $7,500 is a lot of money for a mower but the build quality is unbelievable. Shaft driven, super welded deck, comfortable ride and cup holder. I hated to give it back.

I can't justify that much money with a kid going to college.

I didn't look but if I had to guess about 50". I have no prior experience with a zero turn so it took me a bit to get the hang of it and I didn't even come close to running it at full speed. I think it has a 22hp engine.
He also said Kubota is coming out with a residential mower for $4500 which will come with a Briggs engine. For another $400 you can get a Kohler engine

It's a daughter. I'm doing good to get her to clean her room, much less get on a mower to earn money.

well if she drops out, you can comfort yourself with a new mower.

You done messed up. Should have never test rode it if you weren't gonna buy. You'll have wet dreams about them now.

the cup holder is crucial here

Learning how to run a zero turn and simultaneously drink beer is an art form

That's why I threw it in. Very important in the big scope of things.

I go with the knee hold on the left-hand bar. But I'm a Southpaw; so it may not work well for everyone.

I hold both handles with my left hand. Steer with only one handle when I have to make a hard turn.

My yard looks like a blind kid mowed the grass. I missed some stuff because of the swerving. One little push of the handle and the things off course.
