For the home owner this is the perfect mower for 1-2 acres. The Briggs CXI is sneaky good since they did some good upgrades over the old commercial grade. This is now at the top of my list.
I bought mine about a month ago now with the Kohler and 60 inch deck. The seven gauge deck and 3100 drives for that price were the biggest reasons. It would be nice if it had the reservoirs for the drives, but in all reality since it doesn't cycle the fluid through them the only real advantages to having them is if there is a leak, and to make servicing a bit easier. I almost bought a Toro from Lowes at first, but my brother made me paranoid and I decided to start doing some research. After visiting a few other dealers and many hours online later I decided the Bad Boy has the best specs for the money. You won't go wrong buying one.
I just bought the same machine. My local dealer said they deleted the reservoirs because customers would overfill the oil, then it would expand and leak out, causing a lot of warranty claims from customer error. I like the fact you can change the transmission oil and filter and of course that insanely heavy duty deck. Never really drove a zero-turn before and managed to cut 3.5 acres with a few trees in just over 2 hours.
@@drozcompany4132 That's pretty insane about the reservoirs and I can totally see it happening!!! I think I'm at around 2 acres, with quite a few trees and obstacles... just under 1.5 hours so far.
do you think the lawn stripes would be better on a 54 vs a 60 because of less overhang on the sides so you could get the tire marks closer? I bought a 60 the other day to be delivered in a couple weeks but debating switching to the 54. I only have 1.5 acres so I'm sure the 54 would be fine and some if it has slight hills.
How are you saying the cash price is $5200-$5900? The dealer by me is charging $6500 (Houston area). Tractor Supply sells it for that range, but many people say to avoid Tractor Supply as they do not service them and they have to assemble them where they come assembled at dealers, etc. Is that a rip off price? ($6500)
What's your definition of low hours? Considering most commercial grade mowers start around $10,000 I'd be hesitant to buy something for $2500 with low hours.
1200 hours is about where I draw the line. Just picked up a 60in exmark Lazer Z with 1100 hrs for $2600 off marketplace. My main one got a new engine at 2646 hrs so a ways to go.
Right now we have over 300 Bad Boy mowers in stock. When inventory is high, it’s a good time to buy! If you need any help, give us a call. 405-604-5454.
Good eye. It’s because you’re watching it up close with good lighting. If you were looking at it in person you wouldn’t catch as much detail. There’s nothing wrong with the mower.
