I have meet some of the Spartan sales people when they came to Rolla missouri "dicky bubs" really great knowledgeable staff and really nice Spartan truck and trailer also. I run a lawn service in this town. I got to test drive them and they are so weel handled and balanced you feel like you are on a cloud. Plus there larger pulles save your belts much longer so less down time. Huge chute disperses the grass clippings vary evenly even if its wet. Hope to be able to buy one of there 54inch RZ HD next season since i got a new truck this year "baby steps." My scag 36 walk behind is what i use now.

Everyone in the industry knows you Stan and the way the Scag reps reacted was soooooo heavy handed. I’ve been “tired” and been in the middle of plenty of long “bad days” but I’ve never treated a customer, or potential customer the way treated you. You’re a trusted industry ambassador and they missed an opportunity to push that product with some humor and grace. I’ll get off my soapbox now.

Or he could have been an adult taken control of his impulsiveness to do a wheelie on a $20,000 lawn mower that doesn’t belong to him. *Insert scag is a multimillion dollar corporation it doesn’t matter to them blah blah blah*. It’s an insurance liability for them and who the hell wants a 50 year old man acting like he’s 12 riding wheelies on every brands commercial lawn equipment? The logic these days is incredible

Wheelies are like a staple of every demo day or dealer open house. Wright’s always there though doing wheelies in there parking lot every 30 seconds so the other brands don’t want to look like bitches lol.

It takes a little bit to get used to driving one after driving a normal tractor style, but once you've got it, you've got it. If you're cutting lines, you have to be careful spinning the mower around or the back tire will dig a bare spot. Just take it nice and slow during the turn and then it's back to full throttle across the yard!

I really dont think this has anything to do with scag equipment or about anything breaking. It's simply a liability issue. There are just some thing you do and things you really shouldn't do at an industry show.

It'd take a lot more than a wheelie to break the frame, deck, or any components really. I build, weld, and inspect the frames at SCAG. I'm not trying to say too much about the company or their policies, but I did suggest supercharging the Cheetah and putting a wheelie bar on back 😂😂😂

I'm not in the business myself but I will agree with others, the Scag bit by the reps was stupid. Here's the thing also: that may demonstrate a low confidence level of the sales reps in the equipment also! IMHO if I was looking at one of these mowers, I would WANT to know, what does it take to pop a wheelie in this thing so I understand the safety factor. Probably even more important if as an owner you have multiple crews running the same equipment. Everyone's pucker factor is different, but the guy plunking down the cash has the final verdict on that, right? :-)

I own one of the cub cadet machines (single rear wheel, same outer to outer tire width. . They are really nice. I do not know what more you could want as far as comfort. Seems to have a really shallow deck, and you have to move it up 1 - 1.5 inches more to achieve the cut you desire. I caution however, do not let it get you to comfortable on hillsides, because it will go just about on any hill. This is where over confidence can get you in trouble. I do not push those limits, but I do mow hills that my other zero turn should be able to do, but front casters can not hold the mower in place, so I used to go back and forth, loose the line and have to travel down entire slope and reset, but not with the cub cadet.

Yes.. Big Chief ended his career in the automotive industry by allowing Richard to, spend 5 million building a car, having car built buy professionals, when he was supposed to build it himself, then Richard hired a pro driver after agreeing to drive said car himself. Broke a number of rules, including a "no blower" car. It came in under the weight agreed upon. And the worst part, Chief beat him badly in a best 2 outa 3 drag race, even with the"pro " behind the wheel. And beat them he did. Outran the car Richard had built by a margine so bad that Richard is no longer thought of with any respect in the automotive word anymore.

I don't know what the problem with the Scag guys were, if anything, they should ENCOURAGE people to do wheelies on their rigs. The way I see it? It shows durability, if that mower can do something it's not designed to do over and over and over again? That tells me they've got a quality frame, a quality deck, a quality deck support, and a quality engine. The Bob Cat guys KNEW their equipment was top notch, and they KNEW Stanley would put it through it's course, proving, once again, that Cat can make some of the roughest, toughest equipment. But that's just my take on things.
