The best mower is the one that you like, cuts best in your conditions, and has a dealer that backs you 110%.

i dont know what exmarks you have ran, and where you ran them but your completely wrong. thats the whole reason people in this area buy so many of them over the scags because you can start mowing at 7 a.m. when the grass is wet. and my exmark 60" Triton deck does wonderful in wet grass... the only problem i have is when its too wet its hard not to tear up the turf. i will say one thing, before i had my exmark i had a dixie chopper, and THEY COMPLETELY SUCK in wet grass, or for that matter they just suck period!

the only time i have had trouble in wet grass iwth my exmark was trying to mow extremely wet crabgrass that was about 7-8" tall.. that didn't work out very well

Some people are drawn to the Fords, a few prefer the Dodge. Myself,...I prefer the Chevy/GMC.
