Just got a 61 XL with the same Kawasaki FX1000 38.5Hp. I prefer the Kawasaki over the vanguard B&S as I’ve heard Kawasaki is great to deal with on warranties.
Man that's definitely a beast of a mower. I look forward to seeing your long term use being used throughout this year and what your opinions are on it after a year of use and abuse lol. Very nice mower brother
Have all scag myself...all bought at the same place as yours. Love those things....have 5 right now. AND same issue on the sticker bringing the 61 home the other day. Selling my 52 tho...gonna run 2 61s and 2 walk behinds....Phenomenal on hills btw!!! I believe it's even btr than our turf tiger
Hope tonsee u around one day then! Yea several people are showing the vride2 decal coming off.we need to get free replacement. Scag told me I could buy one smdh. Thats piss poor
I almost bought scag, but 2 years ago scag only offered 23.5 on a 52. I bought a ferris z3 52 inch, it has a 37hp efi with oil guard. At that time no one else offered a 52 with a 37efi. Also, has larger tranny, the zt4400. Same 10,000 Had scag offered it then, I probably would've got scag, but I am totally satisfied, the deck is very close to velocity, very wide open.
If companies make a good product you don’t need a long warranty. If they build crap you need a lifetime warranty. Most people don’t get that about warranties.
You guys need 2 fuel tanks on the V-ride. And for gods sakes no more cup holders in the fuel tanks! Put a dedicated cup holder somewhere that can actually hold a large bottle of water without falling out!
@@connecticutlandscapesoluti7587 same block just efi.engine is reliable but super weak.id say the engine is fine with a few more horses.now the 38.5 is my recommendation. Dang I love that mower
I’d be mad as hell to. Bad dealer prep also it shouldn’t have left like that. I bought a new quad and they scratched it taking it out of the dealer door. I sent it back. If I did it fine. It’s the point. I’m sure they wouldn’t like it but it’s not there money is it.
I will always go to Cox Tractor from now on. Not once have i been happy going there. Or treated well. they are always busy talking to each other and not the customers.facts. So unless i have to i wont go there.
@@exterminator1 i have a tiger cat 2 with a 26 EFI and thats plenty of power for bi weekly clients the only way i can justify 38hp is if im cutting overgrown yards on a daily basis
@@glglmike7177 id like to see that in a vid. 26 is super week especially in the mountains.heck i bog down this 38.5 just going up these hills cutting weekly.
im surprised you went with the kawasaki as much as you bash them lol i expected a Briggs. i know what you mean about them being big i thought the same thing when i rode around on the 61 vride at Bobby's Cycle Works
You're not the first guy I've heard complaining about those Scag stickers! Also how the paint chips off the dang thing. I'm not a fan! Good luck with that $10,000 that's already falling apart on you!🤣
Mower is solid as a rock and even took a wreck as u can see on my channel. So far from falling apart. However I am upset with the stickers.the offered to replace them but I dont want to go to dealer for a decal.
That's why scag mowers have the nickname scrap instead of scag they're junk. It's a wonder the deck and all didn't fly off.Get you a john deere they cost alot more but they have a 3 year bumber to bumper warranty . We run both john deere and exmark they both cost more but they are worth it.
@@exterminator1 I just bought two new machines three weeks ago and my dealer called me yesterday and he said it should be a couple weeks and the extended warranty program should be up and running

Simply the best great purchase
Great video cool mowers
Tell the truth buddy no flaws should be on a brand new baby.
Awesome hoss💪🏽
Thanks bud!!
Nice mower! I a picture of the sticker pealing up on Facebook. I was like “well it already looks like it’s been used” 😂
Man that's definitely a beast of a mower. I look forward to seeing your long term use being used throughout this year and what your opinions are on it after a year of use and abuse lol. Very nice mower brother
Yea its def cool
@@exterminator1 the townhouses landscapers use the same scag lawn mower

They are better than turf tigers. Turf tigers are sleds on hills.
And I thought the 37 vanguard was big. 38.5 HP Kawasaki seriously that's insane.

“Look at that big ol’...”
That’s what she said.
Nice new Scag. Sure they will send a new sticker.

Thank you again for your business!
Should be able to get a replacement sticker for that instrument panel
@@ScagPowerEquipment yes send me one.

What’s the standard scag warrenty now?
@@danzuber2701 2-Year unlimited hour commercial & 3-Year 500 hour non-commercial. This will vary on model
Still love that Ferris Z3X though
congratulations on your new mower and I just bought the 36 scag and I have the same problem with the sticker is coming off.. not good man.
Really? I seen couple other people with stickers coming off too.bout time we gang up on scag lol
I feel that your frustration is completely justified. They need to do better with the stickers. Good looking mowers, though.
Yes sir. To much money to not be better
Dude I've love the way you be mad and then you be happy at the same time ole bi-polar ass 🤣🤣🤣
Whiplashed
Vanguard makes a 40hp
I want me a Scag mower sooo bad!!
I own a vride I wish the deck would go up higher
I just bought a 52” a week and half ago. The stickers piss me off too. They can’t put the stickers straight.
Yea it really upset me
How’s that new scag on the hills? I’m in Tennessee and I need a new upgrade from my cub cadet ZT
There 12,900 now
Over 13K now. Lots of yards to pay it off. Probably be worn out before it's paid off and I'm all Scag here. Just can't see buying new anymore.
Just bought a Turf Tiger from that same dealer. They treated me well.
TT's are the best mowers ever to roll off a factory floor.
@@professor_thunder my first time owning one, I hope you’re right.
They seem nice.time will tell
This video was a water of time
How has the FX1000v done? I just purchased a new VRide II with the FX1000V engine...just got rid of one with the Vanguard 37hp.
So far so good!
I don't know what I'm expecting in life 🤣🤣🤣
What motor is on the 52” and why do you dislike it?
23.5hp is why. not enough power
@@exterminator1 how do you feel about the 26 Kwai EFI on the 52”?

How'd you like dealing with Boones creek scag dealer? I'm in piney flats and looking for my second stand on mower.

Is 36hp really need for a lawn mower
No.that is to low. Mine is 38.5hp. If you mowed you would know it definitely is.especially mowing in the mountains.

Toro all the way! Better warranty.
They are offering an extended warranty program all the way up to five years
SCAG put a hold on extended warrantoes.pissed off tbh

throw a yamaha on the mini v-ride.
If you wanna watch a video of a guy complaining about a sticker. Look no further
If you wanna read a pointless comment...look no further.
Cox has better customer service ;)
😂😂😂😂😂
So funny because I would be same way
