Grasshopper Mowers.comparison

This is a great video showing what those beasts can do. It actually has convinced me now to want a rear discharging deck more

Great video fun and informative thank you

wow the rear discharge is super nice, I have the 725k (side discharge + gas) and it does great but I end up eating more dust than you can imagine. In this example the diesel has the advantage of having more torque but also not having to mow over your mulch from the previous cut

Glad I found this was wishing it was TALL green grass AND two mid-mounts, so I am assuming you prefer the Diesel over the gas?? Would you say it is a hands down on the Diesel?? BIG QUESTION HERE: I have a the LITTLE 1994 Ford Ranger automatic V6, I would have to transport on a trailer a 72" Mid-Mount about 2 times a month ONLY 10 miles one way, do you think such would be too much for my truck?? On your used units, can you post pros & cons of your experiences? Total hours on your machines? Service issues? Does the Diesel require MORE service? ANY help appreciated cause I'm trying to make a decision in the next couple of weeks. I'm 65 and have 25 acres to cut, you think this would be the LAST mower I would have to buy??

Radiator clogging is the biggest problem I run into down here in FL. I have a diesel Kubota and it maybe can go 2 hours before heat becomes a problem but I also have a Deere 455 and it wont go 30 mins before dust has it clogged off. I am starting to think about a demo of one of the Grasshoppers just to see what happens. Like that rear discharge deck but in heavy grass does it cause a lot of clumping?

sounds like from reading the comments a diesel with side discharge is the way to go for me, not having much tall stuff to cut shouldn't have a problem clogging up radiator, i hate stopping to refuel too. thanks

Great video God bless praying for everyone #JESUSLIVES!

SO, the rear discharge you have virtually NO issues in the wind of stuff blowing back in your face?? I'm in Florida and HATE cutting when it's windy

Did the side discharge plug up radiator as much or worse?

Thats alot of debris on the radiator. I'm worried about the cooling efficiency. And that wasn't even running very much. There's gotta be a way to keep all that grass out of there. Maybe a reversed fan to blow out instead of suck it in?

ever have an issue with running hot, rear discharge

Wish more dealers would stock rear discharge mowers. I won’t buy another side discharge

You sound Kansas are you from Kansas?

Diesel baby..DIESEL...GOD BLESS...JCIR!

Everybody knows a diesel has more torque. Nothing new here.
