The New To Me 7232D!

Here is a picture of my new zero turn that I just got today. It is a 7232D and it is my first diesel I ever owned. Massive with lots of extras, compared to my 48" Zero turn. Unfortunately, the rains today would not allow me to have any fun on it.

Wow, that is a nice machine. I just looked it up on their website. Looks like a well built machine. I think I would like having a steering wheel on zero turn. I did not like the handles on the one I had.

You're gonna fall in love with the steering wheel. My Z Force SZ isn't in the same league as your new machine but it's a joy to mow with...well as much joy as you can get mowing, anyway.

Thank you for your kinds words. I am proud to include it in my collection. It is a lot more massive than my 48" zero turn and I read how they engineered the drivetrain to not allow the tires to make divet marks in the yard. The steering wheel is interesting to have. As I was backing it off of the trailer, I kept reaching for something that wasn't there with my left hand. Old habits die hard, I guess. Now I just need a trailer big enough to haul it, as the one I brought it home on was borrowed. The one I have is 74" between fender wells and the deck measures 73.5". I know that I have a lot to figure out on it, but I'm counting on the guidance of some good friends on here I can count on for a smooth transition to a diesel.

I can now hold my beer with one hand and mow with the other!!!:biggrin2: You're right. It will make mowing a lot easier, especially when I get an itch, with a steering wheel rather than the arm levers. I'm stoked about the 32 hp diesel that is running on it. Seems to have plenty of power and a top speed of 10 mph. Hoping to also cut my time mowing down going from a 48" deck or 50" deck to a 72" deck. Can't say that I enjoy mowing as much as I do moving snow, so the less time I have to do it, the better life will be!

Thanks Allen!! I haven't had a chance to ride it yet because it is raining all of the time here, like a tropical rain forest. I am going to need to purchase a larger trailer, since it measures 73.5" and my trailer is only 74" between the wheel wells, but what the heck....it's worth it and I am overdue for a new trailer.
