I find when we have too much tall grass the mosquitoes get really bad. It was like that when we moved here and you couldn't even go outside during the day without being attacked .

I agree, near 1/2 the time to cut with one of those zero turns
Bernie, you're going to need a custom floor mat for that machine. Cardboard just doesn't cut it lol!
..........hey Darryl that was the demo day.....salesman put the cardboard there.....bought it that afternoon after they gave my a great trade in on the Cub Cadet (Kabota) diesel you see in the barn. I miss that diesel tho, used to use it push/tow cars in/out of the barn or shop, the gas motor in the Ferris machine just doesn't cut it for that but for grass - ain't nuthin' better.

We've been selling Ferris zero turns at work for a number of years now. Well built machine, very few quality concerns and the customers all come back with that crazy smile and the statement "I can't believe how fast it is and how good a job it does." Not the cheapest zero turn by any means but a great machine. Same company as Simplicity, who we've been a dealer for since 1990. A big part of my job is lawn and garden parts in the summer months. I actually enjoy that almost as much as auto parts.
