[QUOTE=Murf;161521] Sorry Todd, but Craftsman and Cub are the same company. MTD Products have been making Cub Cadet for nearly 30 years now. They also make the Craftsman series of riders sold through Sears.Husqvarna still build their own stuff as far as I know.As I always advise people, a used TRUE commercial mower will be about the same $$$ as a new consumer (residential, homeowner call it what you want) mower, but IMHO will do a better job for many years longer.It will also mow much faster than nearly any 'homeowner' mower will and will be more comfortable doing it.Do yourself a favour and at least look at the used stuff and skip the residential stuff for commercial use.Best of luck.

I think the 3206 is just a heavier duty, read not commercial estate type lawn tractor, offering hydraulic lift, power steering, shaft drive etc. I was just wondering if I should be concerned with a unit that has 400 hours on it, or consider a brand new one even without the other niceties?

For the amount I plan to use it, it should perform well for a long time. I just don't want a zero turn or stand up true commercial mower for the task.
