Most in depth comparison I've seen. Local dealers are Toro, Hustler, Scag, and Exmark. Believe I'm going scag because dealer himself is honest and personable.

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

Glad it was in-depth and helpful! Dealer support is by far the most important!🙌

Awesome job young man, I love to see young people who are excited and motivated about something. I’ve been mowing for 30 plus years and can honestly say you’ve helped my decision on which way to go, keep up the good work.

Dude good job on your review. As someone who is looking for their first stand on mower this is exactly what I was looking for. I will still probably request a demo but I think I already know which mower I'm leaning towards.

Scag Vride is real longevity period. Good review on most the stuff on it but in my HONEST OPINION view on Wright was I believe a mower you run all the time and that makes you a little biased whether or not you come off that way. I did think if the role was swapped around you would give the scag the props it deserves. Trust me not everyone is the same and going to enjoy all the features of each. Again good start tho...

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

I understand where you come from but I've honestly not been impressed with my Scag what so ever. Not in the cut, reliability, or fuel consumption. To me they are close but the wright wins

[@mexluthor7227]

We have a couple of solid frame Wrights with 8k hours on them with the OEM hydros. On the other hand my V-ride 61” blew its first hydro at 100hrs, then again shortly after replacement. Then a wheel motor, then the hydro again. The dealer made us pay after first repair, I’ll never buy a pos Scag in my life.

[@gottabsleeved]

Id bet the 4inches added length and taller tires would make the scag a better ride when your at speed on big properties

Great question! Completely forgot about that! It's been a while now but I believe the wright rode softer and was generally more comfortable. That being said, it bottomed out easier as well. And I only weigh 125lbs so if do I have you the V Ride 2 would probably be best for you (comfort wise)

[@michaelkinnaman5344]

Not sure, but for tire size and other comparables, the vride 2 would go against a Wright zk. Apples to Apples.

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

I was thinking more about same engine, deck size, and similar pricing. Zk is about 3-4k more than either of these

[@eliasnull]

The ZK has bigger hydros. The X and VRide use the same size so it's more comparable. Also price wise they are very close.

Great Review! very in depth. I'm surprised the Wright discharged the clippings better...I thought the scag had a wider opening for that reason...

[@AB-mj5tm]

Hey wyatt, so did you ever check the pitch on your v-ride deck ? (1/4 higher in back) and did this fix the clogging of the deck? Do you still have to scrape the deck as much?

[@TheLawnCareLifeinMowssouri]

Thanks for sharing man. My buddy Chris (that you met at GIE) is wanting to get rid of the VRIDE and switch to Wright. Maybe this will help him make up his mind.

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

I hope it helps him! I liked the wright a lot. But I want to demo a lot more yet

[@FishFind3000]

One benefit to the wright with the engine mounted to the deck it also lowers the center of gravity making it more stabile on a hill.

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Wow Bud!!! You continuously impress me with your level of maturity. What a fantastically unbiased & informative comparisson. Very well done Bud. Hoping all is well Brocaroni & Cheese!! Dirty Jersey out!!

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

Thanks brotato chip! I definitely tried to do a fair comparison haha! Love the positivity as always ❤️

[@evergreen7889]

I demoed both. You made the better choice. Scag vride 2 cuts good in all conditions. Wright stander x better be dry. Wet and leaves suck on a wright. Scag is the way to go..

[@carters2]

I had the issue you described on my stander x on bumpy terrain where it would cut out and then sometimes not restart again for a while. It ended up being the connector that goes to the PTO switch. When the mower bounces around it tugs on that connector with the weight of the relays and other wires. Mine was loose and also has a small amount of corrosion. Cleaned it up and put it back together with a little dielectric grease and it hasn’t been a problem anymore.

[@chrisgiguere2261]

How is it going downhill ? Like does it hold it w the little tires or slide? Just picked up a stander x52 today n can't wait till spring

[@tony-zv3cu]

10:03 with the newer scag vride 2 they have a vertical exhaust on them, makes belt and blade maintenance easier

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

I'm glad they changed it back!🙌

[@lightning7582]

Wright needs the velocity 2 deck! Best cutting deck bar none. I like my stander x but should have got the zk with the vanguard. IMHO

[@joeretiredmarine8468]

Dude...VERY good review, straight to the point, great editing, you are on your way!

[@REISimplified]

Seriously a great review. I'm definitely getting a Wright!

[@MrCotaman98]

Very helpful, I love their 36. I’m on the fence in purchasing the 52 x or B model. Any opinion? I cut about 35 lawns and would use the 52 for half the jobs. There’s a big cost difference between the 2, more concerned about quality vs the money.

[@williamhernandez3755]

Hey bud, I message then about the damm scalp wheel on that side on my zk and they said dont need it but I took some pictures I'm 100 percent agree with yo on the wheels there ,, we need scalp wheel on that side

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

[@chrislloyd-davies4429]

Fantastic review possibly the best i`ve seen just followed you and I am looking forward to seeing more reviews,

[@mexluthor7227]

I’ll never buy another Scag in my life. The last gen VRide was riddled with hydro issues and Scrap left their customers out to dry. I’m on my 4th hydro pump and 3rd motor on one of them. I hope they catch on fire one of these days. 😂

[@PedersenlawncareLLC]

New mowers always need scraped less than older ones. once the finish wears off that write the deck will need to be scraped like any other mower. But over all that was a great review. It also reinforced my opinion that all mowers have their flaws, and it comes down to personal preference.

[@samwinglewich2133]

You left no stone unturned, great review. I think I would like the Scag a little more, but sadly there's not a lot of lawns that warrant investing in a stander in the SF Bay Area. Most lawns are small, and have complicated features like slopes, islands, trees, and beds where a walk behind really excels. A 36 incher or preferrably smaller may be a game changer. I hear the tiny Wrights are replacing lots of push mowers and walk behinds.

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

Appreciate it bud! They must be small lawns there haha! The new wright 32 inch is pretty sweet! It's slow for what I'm used to but it'd probably be perfect for yards as small as yours :)

[@maxwellsmowing9718]

Seems the scags are kings in the south and wright up north. The scags do fantastic in bermuda. Never seen a Wright down here. Would like to try one.

[@Dallasl_andscaping_.]

I just started doing lawns in 2019. I bought a 2004 fixed deck 36” Wright stander 17hp with electric start. Someone put a new motor on it and battery stand. They are a little slow but the cut is really good. I just started using Ballard X blade adapter trying to show off a even better cut. Just buy Wright mowers. The steel they use is very strong.

[@victorrippe5845]

Wrights are kings here in Miami and in reliability Wrights are more reliable then scags don't get me wrong scags are great mowers but the decks after 3000 hours of usage get ready to start having them welded in different parts of the deck I've seen Wrights with over 5000 hours and decks are in perfect shape it's a much stronger deck then scag here in Miami we put 1000 to 1200 hours a year on mowers it's very common to see mowers here with over 5000 hours and more thanks for the info.

Adjust the front of the deck downward, I think it’s a half inch on the Scag. I had a lot of the same complaints on my velocity deck after hearing that. I was scraping it out once or twice a yard. Since then I’ve probably scraped my deck 3-4 times. I mow in rain all the time. It lives up to the hype now.

[@wyattslawnservice7212]

Ok I'll try that! 1/2 inch of pitch it is. Where are you located? I might try your baffle settings too haha

They all make tall grass short. That Hass to be the coolest comment. I’ve ever heard in this industry over the last 19 years. Very excellent review. The one thing I’m curious about. It’s gonna be blade selection. Are you going to run the highlift blades or the mulching blades. During the season I was changing my blades twice a week. Running the Oregon mulching blades. I tried Hylas and didn’t like the cut. I have owned John Deere, Scagg and Dixie chopper. Actually, my favorite was the Dixie chopper. They had made a lot of changes to their mower. However, parts from time to time did become an issue., But it would still eat a lot of grass.

Never understood why all standers EXCEPT Ferris put the fuel tanks to one side of the machine. It belongs in the center of the machine for even weight distribution. And yes the tires are another issue on most all stander makes EXCEPT Ferris. My 36 inch has almost the same size tires as your scag does. And about the engine shutting off once again Ferris is the only mower that beats all the other mowers out there. The mower never shuts off unless you turn the key off. Others should take notes. If you need to hold a gate open and drive the mower through the gate you can literally stand next to the mower and reach over and drive it through without even standing on the platform. That’s nice
