TrimStar Hydro 48 v. Hydro 48

[The Lawn Patrol]

Looking for feedback on the best choice. Assuming price were the same why would you buy one over another?

Thanks for any feedback anyone has to offer.

Both are great mowers.
If you can get the 17/48 for the same price as the Trimstar 17/48 I would seriously think about it.
Have you demoed both? I think you did the TrimStar demo didn't you?
The TrimStar will be shorter and have a newer KAI series engine on it and of course the H-Bar with cruise control.
