I thought the SCAG mowers were the best built zero turns around and like their stripe cutting deck. But have recently viewed the WRIGHT ZXT 61" zero turn and the size alone makes the SCAG look like a residential mower by comparison. The extremely heavy duty thick metal and build quality on that beast is second to none in my opinion. You have to see it to believe it. It looks virtually indestructible, uses a 40 h.p. Vanguard and is built for heavy duty use.

I have 2 wrights. One is an 11 year old 48 inch Sentar which now has 11,000 hours on it. It's on it's 2nd motor and 2nd pto switch. Besides that and tires everything else is original. Awesome mower and handle the hills here in Georgia like no other mower I've tried. Second mower is a 3 year old 36 inch which runs flawless.

Pick a color. They all do the same job. But dealer support is key. I demoed a 36” Wright and it was nice but was a stiffer ride than I cared for. I run all Exmark now, buy wanted to keep an open mind. My dealer is pretty awesome so will see. My 36” Vantage is hitting 1000hrs so that’s why I’m demoing other mowers.
