re: I need a new zero turn mower

Old man has Gravely 52 HD with a Kawasaki. Good machine. We run all Kubotas at the rec. park I manage (except for the Toro turf mower). The new Kubota line (the one meant to compete with SCAG, Exmark, etc.) is running Kohler engines, and I was leery at first, but the dealer who I've delt with for years assured me Kohler had straightened all their issues out. For Kubota to trust them, I figured why not. Purchased one over a year ago, and that Kohler has surprised me. No issues thus far, and that's running it in a commercial setting. My two cents.
