You wont go wrong with any of the bigger names..Gravely, hustler, bobcat exmark, skag, and a few otheers... they are all pretty much the same...similar engines, transmissions when you get in the 10k range...even the 5k range. Buy whatever one from the dealer with the best reputation of sales and service.

I own a bobcat, and from what I was just told bobcat skidsteers just bought bobcat mowers.
