Does SIZE matter?

[Guardian]

We are talking about 8 inches here.

I want another eXmark. (what did you think I was talking about?)

Like Sooner, I am looking at the 60" w/ 23hp, BUT by dealer is ready to unload a 52" w/23 for a better price (he doesn't have the 60 in stock) PRO day is in 2 weeks - thats why he's offering what he has now.

How bad will I regret those 8 inches?

Tell me it'll be alright

Sorry to have to tell you this, but 8 inches is alot, im referring to exmarks brochure on their acres per hour productivity chart.

52" at 100% efficiency - 4.92 acres/hour @ 9.5 mph
60" at 100% efficiency - 5.76 acres/hour @ 9.5 mph & 6.66 acres/hour @ 11 mph

Sorry!

The ole 'it is not the size that matters it is how you use it' doesn't apply to lawn mowing:rolleyes: size does matter just as in other cases:eek: :D ..on a serious note it picks up your production to something like 20%..at least that is what dealers have preached for years..also it will depend on the size of your properties..take a look at what you got and you will be able to judge whether or not you need the extra width for cutting... I had to turn down a 60 inch deck due to one of my customers gates was just shy of 60 inches..I went with the 54 instead..I got no regrets:o

LMAO!!!

Like I said in the other post, it will matter if you can't get it every where you other mower can go.

8" on small lawns no

8" on medium lawns maby.

8" on large lawns yes.

12" from 36" to 48" yes

4" from 48" to 52" not realy, but the extra fetures you get do.

4" from 44" to 48" not realy.

8" from 52" to 60" reread the first 3.

All of those also depend on the mower type/style.
