If you get a Hustler, the fastrak is the minimum model for 4 acres. I have a Raptor SD and they recommend it for up to 2 acres. The Raptor SD may work but since they don't recommend it for over two acres, there must be a reason. I have 1 acre and it used to take 2 hours with a 54" belly tractor and I mowed the whole thing in 1 hour with the hustler 54".

I'm sure hearing the pigs squeal with delight more than makes up for it

I have Farris Its a great mower, low maintenance, fast, and cuts great. Everything else I have is JD but Deere hasn't improved on their mower deck design since the 70's.

You can buy two Toros for that, and hope like hell at least one of them makes it past the first week.

I thought the Hustler fastrak was a good mower, ran one at the Church I went to for a good 4 years. In that time, only repair was a worn belt, it was around 8 years old and seemed to be very well made. Last edited by Buzz; 03-21-2016 at 07:14 PM.. Reason: . |

Thanks for all the recommendations. I ended up getting the grasshopper.

Which model did you get? I predict you'll be happy with it.

I bought a smaller one bad boy about 4 years ago and have had no problems with it. I plan to upgrade to a larger one in the next year or two. I used to mow about 4-5 hours with my old john deere, now I can mow my whole place in 2-3 hours and I mow more ground now due to the speed of the bad boy. Hustlers are very nice but so is the price tag....I only paid about 3400 for my bad boy new so I'm very happy with it.
