A few thoughts of mine on front mount mowers. Finding good used commercial mowers isn't a bad option for large area mowing.

I will be going over models in a future video and I am building a reference sheet.

Cost Information (based on sales reference books and pricing books):
1990 F935
$13,281 base machine
$25 tires
$91 aux hydraulics
$371 ROPS and Seat
$2,870 72" deck
$16,638 in 1990 dollars = $35,155 in 2021 dollars

2005 1445 *2008 machine shown, I do not have a price guide past 2005*
$20,069 base
$321 aux hydraulics
$1,431 4 post ROPS
$386 front windshield
$300 wiper
$3,980 72" 7Iron Deck
$26,487 in 2005 dollars = $37,389

As of June 2021:
a new 1575 (4wd w/ cab a/c and heat) was $42,639 less deck
a new 1570 (2wd OOS) was $28,649 less deck
