    Ahhhh...... was wondering how long it would take someone to ask....
    It is a deck we have been working on for a while now...
    I dont have any pricing, or availability information at this point, the picture on the website is a bit of a teaser..... but when I do have more information, I will share it here.
    It is just 1 of several new exciting things we are working on.

    More, more info please mate! :) Whats "several new exciting things" mean?
    More, I want to know more!

    Please, give it to me! :waving:

    Your worse than my women with the tease! :p

    Are any of them..
    Adjustable front wall like on the RD deck?
    Adjustable baffle?
    A 28hp diesel on the standard Super Z frame?
    A drop down mulch kit like on a JD?
    An electronic sensor thats attached to the front castors. It grabs and stops the castors from rotating when going across slopes unless you move the sticks to turn. Also, 4wd! ;)
    A hover mode for when close to ponds, dams etc. :p This one might be a tad difficult though! :dizzy:

    I wrote my last post before looking at their site.
    From the looks, it does have the adjustable front wall! Which was the first "thing" I asked! 8 (should be 10 but knowones perfect!) points to me! :p Was a good guess I reckon! hehe :rolleyes:

    Also, a different fuel tank. Kinda flanged at the bottom, to make a kinda mud guard! Seen that on, was it the diesel? Not sure on that!

    How am I going Pj?
    I still want to know more! :waving: :dizzy:

    Sorry guys..... I cant share any information yet.
    The tanks I can tell you about... 14 gallons, very large filler opening, flared design and best of all.... sight gages for the fuel in each tank.
    We have just began installing these tanks on Hustler Z and Super Z models only.

    We are being pretty tight lipped on things at this time.
    The Expo @ Louisville will be the unavailing, maybe a sneak peek here on LS though... keep checking.....
