I believe it’s time to get a new mower.

My local shop of preference carries Badboy, Exmark, and Cub Cadet.

Another shop in town carries Gravely.

And then there’s Lowe’s.

I’m thinking about the Badboy ZT Elite with a Kawasaki engine.

Any advice?

I mowed professionally for awhile with an Exmark. The stock battery lasted 7 years. Great mower.

My grandpa loves his Hustler.

I’ve had my badboy for 10 years, mowing 3 acres, and no issues. I service it, myself, every 100 hours.

How big you looking for? I have a 2018 Husqvarna Z560 60" commercial with 60 hours on it I'm going to sell.

But seriously, Badboy or Gravely

Can’t go wrong with a bad boy or a gravely, but pay attention to the transmissions. That’s what separates the commercial from the residential as far as quality/longevity

Yeah...I didn’t realize that the lower end mowers have transmissions that aren’t serviceable.
