I just bought one today. Gently used for 3500.00. I have 20 acres but only cut about 6-7 acres. I built in the country and didn't know what to get. I used my push mower a lot last year lol. The cub Cadet is a huge upgrade for me!
Too expensive. Had plans to get a 972 Pro Z as well so I had to keep costs down. I should have just got the Ultima ZT2 instead of the 3. Not worth the upgrade just for the shocks on the front
