I know this ain't about turkey hunting, but I was needing a new mower.  So I ended up just buying this one.  It's supposed to be here later today or Monday.  I'm kind of excited.   :lol:

Thanks.  I have heard great things about Cub Cadet mowers.  I had a John Deere before this one that lasted me 10yrs I believe.  Those zero turn mowers are very nice and quick.  But they were a little more expensive with the 50" deck model.  I think around $3000.  This one was $2299 and it has a 25 horse Kohler which is what I was wanting.  The 50" deck isn't really needed but I figured it was just icing on the cake.   :lol:

You will love the Kohler motor. I bought a ToroZ5030 a couple years ago that has a 23HP Kolhler. That is the best small engine I've ever had.  :you_rock:

Most kohlers are good especially the command pros.  I have an exmark with one that I finally had to replace at 2678 hours when the crankshaft gear broke.   There are certain models to stay away from as with any line though.  The Briggs Vanguard is the best in my opinion right now as far as air cooled.  These are commercial engines though and its not uncommon to get over 3000 hours out of one

Thanks for the info turkey slayer.

Mine had some extra features than the one I posted earlier.  It's got a front bumper and side arm rest on the seat whcih I think I'm gonna love.  I'm getting ready to go use it.  They just dropped it off awhile ago. 

Here's a few pictures.

Nice mower!! I like it!!

You better check the oil level in it before you use it. Just because it's supposed to be ready doesn't always mean it is.

Where's the gun rack???? ???

I have a lt 1042 and it is pretty good. The problem I have had with it is it leaks oil around the newfangled drain plug apparatus. Finally screwed it out and put a lead pipe nipple in it and stopped the leak. The newfangled 1/2 turn to drain plug can get you in a bind.

Well I think this one is going to have to go back.  When I mow down my steep hill it starts smoking really bad.  And I mean bad.  I let my buddy's dad look at it and he said that's not right.  Oil is getting in the air filter when it does that.  Something ain't right.  He told me to call them Monday.  But he said not to worry that they will fix it and it's under a 3yr warranty.  Just my luck.

What did you do, sell your intire turkey choke collection to pay for that thing? Looks nice though.
