End of Season Sales - Buy A Zero Turn Mower

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

Maybe you've been putting off the purchase of a new zero turn mower and waiting for just the right time to buy.  As the grass cutting season slows down, buying at the end of the grass cutting season might be the perfect time to find a great deal on a zero turn mower for sale.

Why Now?

Two reasons actually.  First, many equipment dealers will want to sell their mowers now so that they don't have to carry the inventory over the winter.  It costs businesses money to hold inventory for long periods of time since many use loans and lines of credit to buy inventory.  If they hold a $10,000 mower in their inventory and use credit, it could cost them as much as $50 in interest costs each month that the mower sits in their inventory.  Every month cuts into profits and dealers are eager to move inventory before next years models come out.

The second reason that you might be able to get a great deal on a zero turn mower in the fall is because some professional landscapers buy new equipment every few seasons and they sell at the end of the season.  There is some logic to buying new equipment more often since breakdowns that cost time and money are less frequent, but for many a used zero turn mower that's only a few years old and a fraction of the cost of a new mower is a great option.

Zero Turn Mowers Increase Productivity

For professional landscapers it's not surprise that zero turn mowers help to improve your efficiency and that's why most professionals used them.  Homeowners may not know that they too can benefit from buying a zero turn mower for their lawn at home.  Cutting the grass takes a lot of time and depending on how large your lawn is, it could take hours each time the grass needs to be cut.  Now if you have to cut it 2 times per week, that's a large time investment just to keep the propertly looking nice.

Are there other things that you could be doing with that time?  What about spending time with your family? Watching a baseball game on TV or going to a little league game?  As you can see, reducing the time that it takes to cut your lawn is important because there's other things that you could be doing.

Now you might be wondering how exactly will a zero turn mower save time?  You'll notice that the deck is placed on the front of the lawn mower which allows you to get very close to obstacles and to manouever around them with ease.  No more backing up and going forward many many times.  This alone takes up a lot of time.  Also, a good quality built zero turn mower can handle a large volume of grass and cut at a fairly high rate of speed.

Although zero turn mowers do cost slightly more than a conventional riding mower, I think that you will be very happy with one if you decide to purchase one.

Surprisingly, Ferris Industries actually started out in the milking machine business back in the early 1900's.  In 1986 the president of the company saw that the market for dairy equipment was declining and saw a need for a good quality commercial lawn mower.  Ferris designed and built a Zero Turn Mower and took it to trade show in New York and they were an instant hit.  They claimed to have made a better quality, longer lasting mower than what was available on the market at that time.  Using some of the hydrostatic technology from they're dairy equipment manufacturing, they were able to transition into make mowers, first with a no-belt walk behind zero turn mower.  It was a hit!  After their successful transition into making zero turn mowers, Ferris Industries was purchased by another large competitor, Simplicity in 1999.

This small and mighty Ferris Zero Turn Mower from just might surprise you.  Ferris claims that this mower can cut 4.3 acres in one hour and has a ground speed of 10mph.  In the landscaping industry, not only is it important to do a good job, but it's also important to get the job done quickly and then move on.  The Ferris 1500z comes with a Kawasaki V-Twin engine in either 19, 21 or 25hp with deck sizes of 44, 48 or 52 inches.  With a revolutionary independent suspension system, the 1500z will provide a better cut than most other fixed frame zero turn riding mowers all while maintaining a faster speed.
