It may be a
sacrilege to this group, but I use a 14 hp DR brush hog, an old Gravely
walk-behind, and a 40HP John Deere utility tractor with PTO drive brush hog
to mow trails. By my standards, the front deck on the 15 and the mid deck
on the 12 are certainly not trail mowers, nor do I know of a tow behind
electric trail mower. Swisher makes some powered tow behind trail mowers
for ATVs and garden tractors that could be used as trail mowers (if you
don't have an objection to a gasoline engine in tow).

Our gas tractor just died, and we're wondering about a replacement. I
really want to get another electric - we have an E-15 also - but I have to
convince some skeptics. The key issue is reliability - people are nervous
about the age of the Elec-traks. The next issue is ruggedness for mowing
trails - the E-15's front deck does not do this well.
