    Hi everyone.
    I am looking at buying a new 42 inch ZTR.

    You want to go to page 10 of 20 or make it large enough to see numbers on the bottom left corner on their catalogue and go to page 15 http://4c0pds115v8a2d8o0m3fe9qp-wpen...ochure21-1.pdf

    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Hi ian
    Thanks for the links.
    Don't know what to think of the Cox Stockman ZTR Pro.
    Left side discharge is different. Cox brand motor. I assume that means chinese made.
    Would like to see and sit on one somewhere.
    Cheers

    Buy from a good dealer seems to be the advise here. I have a hustler dealer and a kubota dealer in my town. Both are slack. So. the we can get you one in mate does nothing for me. So might have to buy away. Then servicing becomes a problem.
