Swisher is not a bad name, but I have had a couple of theri Zs in to work on, and they are a pretty light built machine compared to the companies that built the better ones. This falls into the area of "you get what you pay for" if it is cheaper than the others, there has to be a reason, the price of labor and steel is still there, so something has be shorted to make it that cheap. They are not even cloase to the quality of the Swisher ride king that this company made for so many years, now that was one tough little brute!!
