First of all, thanks for all the feedback so far guys. I'm looking at 60'' residential in the bad boy. The gravely im looking at is also residental but is a 52'' and comes with a 24 hp kawasaki and the bad boy comes with a 27 hp kohler. As far as price range id like to keep it under $6,000 and both are close to that. They sell bad boy here in lafayette at Congress Outdoor Power Equipment and the gravely i looked at was at Southland on Jonston street. After tax and everything the Gravely is $6,046.92 & the Bad Boy is $5,398.92

how much property will you be cutting and how smooth is the terrain?

A little over 2 1/2 acres and it is mostly smooth with a few bumps here and there.

If you decide to go this route I got some goats to sell you

Southland has been the number 1 and 2 Gravely dealer in the country for the past 10 to 12 years. Great people!

Might do that also.

Your in Lafayette so you have two choices if you don't want to travel for service. They all break and there are a lot of good brands out there, find a friendly dealership. Congress Outdoor or Southland Engine only ones left in Lafayette. Congress Outdoor would be my choice.

Ain't that true with any mower?







If I had enough grass to cut...I'd go with a Kubota diesel.
