I am looking at getting a 72" or 60" rear discharge PTO finish mower. It take to long to mow with the rider mowers and the brush hog is not really meant for finish mowing. With a PTO mower I can do the job much faster due to size and the speed that I could run the tractor at. I have been looking at Craig's list for a used one but no luck so far.
Does any one have any good advice? What brands have you used that you feel are worth the price. I would like to keep it under $2000.

LOL!
PTO= power take off; on the back of a tractor there is a shaft that powers things you hook up to the tractor. Things like a mower or rototiller connect to a 3 point hitch and the PTO.
I posted on Tractorbynet.com and got some advice, I was even told I could go as large as 84", now that is a big mower! I think 72" is plenty big for my needs.
