I have come to the conclusion that my current mower (Husqvarna Z254F) is not enough for what I am mowing. I have cleared some areas and I'm now around 2 acres and I'm wanting to maintain a path around another field that I won't attempt with the one I have. It worked and still does work good, but I'm needing something a little more commercial/"prosumer".
My local dealer has Kubota and Dixie Chopper. Specifically the Kubota z422 vs the Dixie Chopper Blackhawk HP for what I would like in a 60" deck.
I like that Dixie is made very locally to me for part availability and their deck is 7ga steel.
The Kubota has a nice wide stance, but the deck is 9ga steel.
Both have the Kawasaki engine, but the Dixie seems to have a better transmission geared towards commercial. Both are around the same price.
Thoughts or experiences with either?
I would really like one of those 2 brands because thats what my local dealer carries.
