Toro 5000 or Scag?

I am in the market for a second mower and am looking at a Toro 5000 60" deck or a Scag 61" deck but am not sure what Scag is comparable to the Toro. I have demoed a Scag Tiger Cat as that is all they have to demo and was disappointed with it. I feel that its not built as well as the Toro.

What Scag is comparable?

I would look at the Turf Tiger. We have 3 they have been very reliable and great on slopes. We have two 27/52's and a 29/61.

I have the 29 Kawasaki DFI. It's not as loud as the 27 kohlers and runs smoother. It uses less fuel than the 27. I have been happy with it.
