Need some (lots!) of help looking for a self propelled mower. We've used a JD 2420/2320 which doesn't condition first cut orchard grass as well as our IH 1190 pull type. Jeff switched back to using the 1190 to finish this week. I've kept google active searching but it is hard to do really good comparisons on older models. Self propelleds aren't very common in our area.
Have looked at some center pivots but would really like to be able to be forward looking 
- Sickle with stub guards works here but not ruling out disc
- Primarily orchard grass and timothy, possibly Korean lespedeza again, but grass is first consideration
- Wondering about steel rollers for just the grasses
- Must do good conditioning and spread instead of narrow cut swath
- Thinking a 16' would work with tedder & rake for 1st cut
- Not a lot of acres to cut and all are at home so we won't be putting a lot of hours on it
- We do all our mechanic work (and don't want to be working on it all the time either LOL)
- Diesel preferred
- Budget -- really, really low compared to the ones with new paint
That's a start, appreciate you'alls help!
