It is time to buy a new mower
Love my old 1979 Simplicity Tractor (16HP) 44" deck it has served me well but it is time for a new mower.
I have 1.5 mowing acreage some trees and flower beds but we do those with a trim mower and weed eater. Slight hill on one side of the house and also at the end of the property there is a up hill area. </SPAN>
Any recommendation for a Zero-Turn-Radius-Mower ?

That is, of course, after he is finished playing basketball

1.5 acres??? I'd mow that shit with a push mower. Like a boss. On days I had an extra 10 minutes, I'd use a weedwhacker on the whole thing.

I have a John deere with 54" deck I kinda wish I would have just bought the tractor instead of the zero turn. I had a grasshopper before this and I really liked it.

Growing up I used to mow well over an acre with a push mower before mom finally dropped the coin on a riding mower. I probably pushed it for 2 or 3 seasons. A zero-turn sounds like completely overkill for a yard that small but it isn't my money.Steel Valley Football;1152466 wrote:1.5 acres??? I'd mow that shit with a push mower. Like a boss.

If you're going to spend that kind of money, go with a brand the pros use. Scag or Exmark would be my choices.

No doubt the first ever riding mower in Nerk.

It was the second one. The guy that bought the first got a DUI on his almost immediately, though.Steel Valley Football;1152559 wrote:No doubt the first ever riding mower in Nerk.

That must've been the guy who then got a motorized bar stool. Hopefully you heard about that or the joke will be lost.justincredible;1152605 wrote:It was the second one. The guy that bought the first got a DUI on his almost immediately, though.
I was wondering if you were gonna see Leroy last night here in c-bus, but then I saw you posting last night. I backed out at the last minute. He was at Bernies.

Clarification on a few points:
Hire a Mexican : I have to learn Mexican and I haven’t mastered English yet
I don’t like the smell of them
I only use them for roofing
Don’t trust them with scissors
Prefer Cubans Cube a Yard and Ice Cubes for the winter
Buy a Goat: I don’t like the smell of them
Between dog shit and goat crap I could not walk in my back yard
Goat rips the grass and not a sharp cut
No cup holder
Push Mower: Work smart not hard is the motto
I don’t like the way I smell after pushing for an hour
No cup holder
Less time I can spend mowing the grass the more time at the pistol range. God knows I will need all the accuracy I can get when the government comes for me.

Also, I didn't realize Leroy was in Cbus. I had Reds tickets anyway.
