great breakdown! you were very detailed and pointed out things that I wouldn't pay attention to. I demoed a few stand on last summer and the Ferris is way too snappy it drove me nuts. I did not try a Scag yet but they look good
@simonjohnson13813 жыл бұрын
You need the extra anti scalp wheel on the scag discharge side because the front wheels are soooooo elongated, thus it’s prone to scalping , the shorter wheelbase on the Ferris negates the need for one I’ve had both mowers:scag 61”v ride and Ferris 61” and 52” z3x
@davidvasquez35644 жыл бұрын
You're definitely bias on the Farris. I'll take the Ferris any day over that orange peel like mower. Remember that oranges and lemons are citrus so, I rather not end up with a lemon.

@@zachstanton6135you absolutely wont be disappointed. They are smooth and efficient. I am getting the new vride xl 52” with 40hp vangaurd because i need one all around mower that is slightly bigger than my old husqvarna residential 48 and with more power for hills and thicker grass. I do alot of cleanups. Otherwise i would have bought the vride with 23 hp. Still has plenty of power but i want to go all out.

I could tell from the start you were in favor of the Scag. For example, you mentioned the handles on the trim side of the Ferris but didn't on the Scag. Pretty biased comparison I think...and I'm looking at these exact models and leaning towards the Scag.......but you were pretty biased.

So this is an apple to apple comparison per say. But the vride2 doesn't have any other model. The z3x smokes the vride 2 in features. Do another comparison. Plus you talking about hitting branches way to much. You act like someone gonna drive a mower into a thicket. Very biased

@TopNotchPropertyServiceLLC4 ай бұрын
Not sure of ferris but 52” vride 2 starts out around 10-12k i believe. You can get a nice 2 bin bagger system with accelerator for a surprisingly cheap 2k. I am purchasing a 2024 vride xl (scags new model) thats basically a blacked out beefed up vride 2 but with faster hydros and thicker frame. For $14,446.66 its a beast and looks awesome its also my first commercial mower! Cant wait. Should hear back today if i qualify for a loan.
@jarretolsen27713 жыл бұрын
Having had both, Ferris in a landslide. I got the 28 hp vanguard with oil guard and it’s a hoss. Scags controls are very stiff, the Vrides are horrible on hills, and it was a stiff ride. Ferris’ comfort is hard to beat, great on hills, doesn’t bog down, and the controls are adjustable and like jelly. The key placement doesn’t bother me, I prefer comfort and cut over minute details. I’m wanting to try a ZT because of the shocks and front end swivel alone.
@gloriab93613 жыл бұрын
Ha don’t bash your competition or other brands to promote another. The Ferris will pull the Scag up a hill. Ferris. Then Wright. Then scag. It has to hold a hill if not just buy a Hustler. Sounds like a used car salesman in a cheap suit. Remember all of you landscaping professionals don’t trim branches and make sure to run your machines into them. Nuff said.

Ferris Z2 by a mile. VRII wins: 1. cut 2. accessibility to change the Hydro oil. Z2 wins: 1. Better pad 2. Adjustable standing platform 3. More accessible PTO 4. Easier height adjustment 5. more HP engines for same cost 6. Better warranty and Customer service 7. Adjustable speed control. 8. Better hydro/motors 9. easier and more responsive controls. 10. Step off and only blades stop not engine.
