Hi Everyone,

I have a chance to buy a new 2010 leftover 48" Turf Tracer HP for $5800.Is this a good deal? The dealer says the 2011 model sells for $6350.

I also have an opportunity to buy a 48" Deere Hydro (same as Gravely) for the same price but the Deere has electric start and electric PTO versus recoil start and manaul PTO on the Exmark. Deere dealer also has a demo machine available while there isn't a demo available for the Exmark.

Which machine would have better resale value if I decide to sell it for some reason a few years down the road?

I would appreciate any and all feedback that anyone has.This machine would be for personal use at my house, probaly 20 hours or so per year.

Thanks in Advance.
