Fastrack or SD?

[sosaysmorvant]

I am seriously considering a Hustler mower for my first ZTR purchase. I've been doing tons of research/reading on different mowers. I'm looking for a ZTR with a 36-48" cut (48" being the preference).

I mow an acre or so as a homeowner and I plan to cut some lawns part-time in the near future. This will never turn into a full-time gig, so keep that in mind.

If I were to purchase a Hustler, should I get the regular Fastrack or spend the extra money for a Super Duty? From what I've read, the SD has more horsepower, larger tires, and a better air filtration system. Would I benefit any from purchasing the SD? Or would the regular fastrack be more than enough???

The Super Duty will fit your needs better, especially if your going to pick up some lawns for part time income.
You will appreciate the extra hp for those jobs with overgrown lawns, you will also enjoy the larger tires for rougher lawns.
These are things you will run into mowing someone else's lawn, you can control this on your own lawn but when someone calls you to mow you never know what you may run into that first cut.
