A few weeks ago I purchased a brand new John Deere 717A Zero Turn mower. Now, I know that Exmark is the favorite brand on these boards but the John Deere was a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Exmark and here's the real sticking point: It is almost exactly the same design. And I don't mean it has some similarities, I mean it is pretty much a green Exmark. So, I asked some local guys that supply lots of lawn service companies in my area and they told me that the same guy designed both brands. The Exmark dealer even admitted to me that this year is the first time John Deere has had any commerical mower worth considering.
I've had other John Deere equipment in the past and I have no complaints about any of it. But I thought I would ask everyone else what their opinion of JD is, especially as it compares to Exmark.
