@@stevesmith1211 I always called mine “my old man mower”. The other thing that ticked me off would be I would see a 1987 model 20 years older and it would look the same as mine

@@craigpainter1816 absolutely not 😂. Please watch my video on transmissions. Bad boy has 2 year parts and labor. Maverick hd 42” would definately be my minimum recommendation for mowing “yardzzzz”.

@@keithpatin9955 so I know for a fact a 3400 will go where an ezt was with different wheels. As far as bigger trans they usually involve bigger framed machines.

@@kgmowers LOL all good brotha... any big changes on the HD? motor options?

@@jarsonbistruction4557 no just the sticker on deck, seat pattern, and the r series floor board

Like my 23 mav but the dealers in the north absolutely suck!!

@@sposatoas258 we are about to be live on parts online and mowers :). You order a mower and a week later it’s sitting in your front yard 🙌🏽

@@SmithCapone504 yes sir congrats you can’t go wrong!! We are going to to start offering pallet shipping for you guys and start shipping to your front doors :).

@@Bbbbbbbbbbxxxx yes the 4045 and 5055 either one can be shuttle shift

@@kgmowers thanks.looking to buy in the next few months. I'm just down the road in Mt. Pleasant.

@@johnlavarine8155 I would highly recommend stepping up to atleast the 2800 serviceable on the avenger, but it only comes in a 54”, but would highly recommend the zt elite 48 kohler pro with front suspension and 3100s 😎🔥

@@bryanhauschild4376 definately not. They sold out along time ago :)

$18799 all the pricing is listed on my website if you’ll click on the link :). That’s with the loader, 5ft cutter, belly mower if you pay cash :). If you finance it’s a hair more I posted that on the description as well

@@kgmowers my apologies. I was referring to bad boys website , should have been more specific

@@dman2007 www.kgmowers.com :)

@@bryanhauschild4376 bearings are strange cats. I’ve seen failures instantly when turning on blades, to bearings good for 2000 hours. I saw a lot more bearing failures during Corona times because the manufacturers were scrambling to get what was available. Anytime a bearing fails on a bad boy, hustler, or kubota here I replace them with a top of the line class a timken, or jcl bearing and we typically see around 1200 hours

@@kgmowers ima a timken guy. Great idea.

@@RealJeep Ferris is one of the most expensive brands and doesn’t sell as fast as the less expensive brands like gravely/bad boy/hustler etc…. My guess would be its end of year, he is prolly paying 3% over prime on interest with that mower on his floor plan and he is trying to lean you in that direction. Unless you have a really bad back and other mowers he has don’t have suspension and he is trying to help you for the rest of your life not get beat half to death 🤔

@@kgmowers Thanks! Yep, I'm an old guy and have some pretty rough ground in east Tennessee. I've been mowing with a pull behind finish mower on my tractor and it does "beat me half to death." I would gladly pay for something with suspension.

@@keithparker3259 holler at us tomorrow and I can build you one out and price it. Www.kgmowers.com or hit us on fb kgmowers

@@bryanhauschild4376 if you buy stuff like I did it’s free 😂. If I would’ve listened to Ramsey I would still be living in my grandma in laws 25k house. I bought 5 bad boy mowers average $7500 on my credit card 0% for a year it cost me $90. Sold them all the first day then sold 160 more of those mowers out of my house in 2008 at an average of $7500 each never paying for one, always using my credit All of this started with a 13k grasshopper diesel mower I bought to mow my yard of 1 acre after getting tired of push mowing. I came home with a $300 and something payment for 48 months. My mower cost half as much as my house was worth. And it was $2k more than my brand new stripped down single cab v6 dodge pickup was new that I picked it up in (the lawn mower salesman said that this mower was more expensive than my pickup), he really almost passed out when I told him it’s almost as much as my house I live in. My first yard payed me $750 a week for around 7 hours of work mowing a cemetary, then my next yard payed me $150 a week. I went from clearing $700 a week working around 50 hours a week to working on a Saturday making more than I made all week on my $13k mower someone else gave me the money for. Fast forward 16 years later now we physically own 21 homes paid for, just bought our dream home over looking the Pacific Ocean in Central America paid cash for it, and now we are owner finding people homes and helping them get out of renting and doing the biblical thing becoming lenders and not borrowers. It took some borrowing to get to this point though and it all started with me buying a mower waaaay beyond my means as the Lord led and directed me.

@@mmonti77 no sorry. They are really strict on that since they added first responders.

@@kgmowers When I had visited my dad on Sept 26th, the presence of God was there. Healing took place between my dad and I. Thank you again for the video.

@@coltonnewman8283 nothing cuts better that a bagging walker. They are amazing!! Straight lines are super easy on those

@@bobbylibertini the maverick hd has a kawasaki fx carb mower option

@@kgmowers True. Trouble is, 23 HP isn't enough for a 60" deck. For a semi-commercial mower, 23HP is a joke. Really, even 26 is pushing it. Really a shame though, 'cause I really liked the Maverick HD.

@@bobbylibertini I’m sorry I didn’t get to talk to you before. The toro Titan max comes with the kohler 26hp homeowner 7000 engine. It is the same motor offered on our $4699 Bad Boy avenger. If you would have stepped up to the bad boy maverick under 7k and got a kohler confidant 25hp it has tons more power and has double the life span on the engine. Then if you would have upgraded to the maverick HD you would have got an absolute full blown commercial 3 times longer lasting engine at 23.5hp the way they design commercial engines even blow away most 30hp engines like the Briggs cyclonic. It’s all in the quality and parts. Some people get hung up on hp. If you will mow on a 21hp kohler command engine 60” deck it would blow a 26hp kohler 7000 out of the water on sheer power and torque and juice to the blades :). I’ve sold several 27hp kawasaki fx engines on 72” hustler xones that had extremely powerful cut quality and power. Most of the guys coming in for 72” decks want a 40hp now 🙈

@@kgmowers I've actually heard that about the Kawa 23's. If I had been able to demo one, I would have tried it...but sadly, the dealers around here suck and have squat in stock...so that wasn't an option. I believe the Mav. HD comes with the ZT3200 trannies too- not that I know how that differs from the 3100's on the Toro.... BB dealer was willing to give me a fair trade-in price on my Grasshopper diesel too ($4K)...but I still would have had to put out $5500 for the BB. I sold the 'Hopper privately for $4200, and only had to put out $3300 cash for the Toro... Ah, I dunno- it was a hard choice. I think pretty much most of the mowers in the >$7K range are pretty good. Hey, I really wish I could've afforded a new Grasshopper, but even a gas job goes for $14K! Hey, this Toro can REALLY hold a steep hill though (and I've got plenty of them!).

@@bobbylibertini 3100s are homeowner as well 3200s on the maverick can last much longer for heavier periods of usage, almost twice as long in most cases, then the maverick hd had 3400s which are paired with the fx kawa class engine and is made to use every day all day long. You can see the tremendous price gouging that toro does by sitting a same priced bad boy, gravely, or really any non corporate brand next to it. Thats why it’s so easy to get much more machine from brands like gravely, bad boy, bobcat, hustler, grasshopper, Scag, etc because brands like Ferris, exmark, toro, wright, kubota, Deere, and the more “corporate style” mower companies all seem to be more profit driven than actually improving product and trying to keep the price down for the consumer. It seems like the big guys are forgetting about the little guys, and the industry is taking notice. Bad boy sold well over 100 thousand mowers this year, the president of Scag was in my dealership yesterday and she said that Scag has taken 25% of the entire market share. She is only the second president of any mower company that’s ever walked into my dealership, and that spoke volumes. She is out on her own boots on the ground visiting dealers and making seeing what she can improve on as a president. That one act alone has shifted something in our dealership to promote their products heavier, this was unheard of. The last top official to do this in my house was Robert Foster the previous owner of Bad Boy and Spartan and he not only came in he stayed for days at a time, and helped show products, taught people how to drive ztrs, joked and genuinely loved on us, our customers, and radically loved his products. We became the largest volume dealer in the world for bad boy mowers 5 years after meeting him face to face with 1 employee, then became #2 for Spartan mowers, and have continued to be a top dealer for Bad Boy every since. There were a lot of factors why, but the owner igniting passion in me for his product and him going above and beyond for me when I tore up my mower going down the highway when it fell off my trailer blew me away. For this reason alone I steer clear of the huge corporate owned mowers. Toro charged you almost $7k for a mower you can buy from a much more caring company with a heavier built 7 Guage deck instead of the rinky 10, much nicer components, parts, and love put in the product for $5649 from bad boy and would have also got a front suspension system to make the ride better. Don’t get me wrong, they all make good products, but if another company can build a better product for 20% less to the consumer, then they can do it as well in this rough economy. If we all boycott this companies literally taking advantage of people they will be forced to be more competitive and offer a better product to the consumer for a lower price. We have a dealer in town who gave up Stihl said it wasn’t performing in their dealership. Stihl is the same price in every dealership in the United States. We bought all of the product from the dealer for inventory. When we started unloading the equipment out of the trailer I began to notice price tags on each item. Each weedeater was marked up $50 over retail, each blower was $75 to $100 higher, chainsaws were $50 to $200 higher. It blew my mind how many people saw that and never stepped foot in there again 🙈. I will never promote a toro or an exmark ever to anyone on the planet earth knowing with all my heart a human being can buy a better built product for 20% less.. or get a waaaay better quality mower for the same price from Literally any other brand of mower 🙈

@@togodbetheglory9725 those generacs were beast.

@@toddac61 ok let’s fix you up. Send me your serial number and model number. Let me see if I can fix you up. 9035174093. Is yours a 725g2? Do you know if it’s your pump or wheel motor, or both? I can possibly give you a discount depending on shipping, but we may can have you a complete all new transmission system wheel motors, pumps, and all. The pumps are around $800 each and the motors are $1000 each I can give you a TH-cam discount. Hopefully you only need 2 pieces and can just change oil and filters and roll on and use the old mower for a back up with your attachments :).

@@kgmowers It isn't the G2, it is the Gemini with the one piece pump and wheel motor. I was able to get the Bobcat with a rebate for $7900 and sold the grasshopper and the attachments for $1100. Thanks for offering help.

@@alextorresr.2058 kg mowers in Paris Tx. Good news we are about to go live on our parts online again. Right now you can call the shop and we will ship out 9037847102. We are fixing to go live on our website, Shopify, and everything on there will show our actual stock online linked to our internal system. We should have some really good pricing on stuff :).

@@gleanerman2195 they are growing on me. I didn’t like all the manufacturers getting away from seperate pumps and wheel motors for a cheaper system, but over time I see the difference. Without a pressurized system no leaks in hoses due to heat and pressure, the complication if a wheel motor goes out and you don’t replace the pumps then the pump goes out and ruins the new wheel motor, or vice versa. Much less complication, moving parts, and cost paired with holding up just as good as the “old school” system and they have been a homerun for a lot :).

@@georgehofgren6123 I have been doing this for 16 years, am the largest dealer in the world volume wise for bad boy mowers and carry 6 lines of mowers. We were also the #2 dealer for spartan, carried Dixon, gravely, and Altoz mowers over the years. I am trying to help you guys that under buy units due to not having the correct knowledge of the difference in mowers and categories. I tried to lay it out simply by transmissions and if you buy and grade a mowers by its transmission instead of anything else you are focusing on the most expensive part of the mower and the most used. A good trans equals a good mower. Nearly all of these transmissions are the same as they were 16 years ago when we started this business. The only ones that are obsolete are much older grasshoppers, and dixons.

@@pacobordok6666 yes you can, but with the raptor I would recommend getting a new mower instead. They made a lot of design changes to the the trans brackets, deck, etc. I Would do atleast one step up to the raptor xd. I would sell yours as mechanic special around $800 to $1000 then get 0% and then pay the extra $299 for the mower and get a full 5 year parts and labor on engine, mower, and transmissions :).

@@drako3544 it really depends on your Grass condition, type of grass, deck set up, and blades. Stock out of the shop untouched I would say they both are pretty similiar along with Scag. I have customers that own both and some will say one cuts better and the next customer will say the other cuts better. If you dial in a deck for each yard any mower can cut better than the other. Personally here in our area I believe the vx deck cuts a hair better than the vx4 and has an edge over all of them. The xone is my salesman’s favorite mower out of all of them because of that and the smooth transmissions, not to mention the 5 year warranty.
