I THINK I have it narrowed down to either a Toro Titan MX5400 or Husqvarna M-ZT52. I would apologize for another of these "which one" postings, but I have read a bunch of them here and find them extremely helpful. I hope others that are doing research will benefit from your feedback as well. I have about 2.5 acres I'm mowing with areas of thick grass, some bumpy terrain, and debris. I have looked at and considered SCAG, Hustler, Gravely, Ferris, and Kubota. I've gone round and round and, for a number of reasons, came down to the two mentioned. Here are the specs:
Toro Titan MX5400
- 23hp Kohler Confidant
- Aluminium Spindles (non-greasable)
- ZT-3100 Hydros
- 22x10 Drive Tires 13x6.5 Caster
- 54" deck
- Deluxe Suspension Seat
- 18,644+ fpm blade tip speed
- 5 Gallon tank
- 4 year / 400 hour warranty
- $5,700
Husqvarna M-ZT52
- 22hp Kawasaki FS
- Cast Iron Spindles (greasable)
- ZT-3400 Hydros
- 23x9.5 Drive Tires 13x6.5 Caster
- 52" deck
- Deluxe Seat (non suspension)
- 19,000 fpm blade tip speed
- 5 gallon tank
- 3 year / ? hour warranty
- $6,000
I have sat on the Toro and love the suspension seat and in general feel like it gives me a little more room (I'm 6'7"). I really like both of the dealers, so that isn't an issue. What I don't know is how do each cut and discharge? Is having "no greasing automotive style sealed bearings on deck blade spindles" (Toro literature) a good or bad thing? Is it harder and more expensive to get Husqvarna parts? If the time comes to resell, will Toro fetch a larger audience?
Thanks in advance for your feedback to this post and all the information provided in this forum. Once I make a decision and put a couple of hours in the seat, I will make sure and contribute to the "Review" sticky.
