Product Features
Built To Perform
Heavy Weight Champion
The MZ Rambler has the heaviest-built deck in its class for long-lasting durability. Bad Boy's legendary all-new Sloped 3/16˝ or 7-Gauge All Steel, Formed and Welded Deck with Reinforced Edges won't bend or wobble under the stress of everyday mowing.
All New Design
Our smallest zero-turn mower has some serious advantages. With upgraded gas tanks and a no-slip rubber floor mat, plus the all-new sloped 42" all-steel, all-welded deck, it gives you optimal maneuverability — compact enough to fit through gates and weave through tight spaces.
Built to Fit You
Choose which side you want for your deck lift pedal to easily dial in a deck height for a perfect cut time and time again. You can even adjust the comfortable, cushioned seat for the ride that fits you best.
Made for the Long Haul
It's built on the same heavy-duty steel frame as the ZT Elite and MZ Magnum, with industry-leading 5/16" steel front forks. Made from 3/16 inch or 7-gauge steel with reinforced edges and additional ¼" side plates, it's the heaviest deck you can get in this class.

Perfect starter zero-turn
Traded in an old lawn tractor for the Rambler and I can't believe how much faster I mow now. The 42" deck fits through my side gate with room to spare.

Great value for a smaller yard
The Kawasaki engine option is strong for the size and the sloped deck cuts evenly even in thicker patches. Steering is smooth and precise.

Solid little mower
Does exactly what I need on a half-acre lot. The deck dial makes it easy to change heights without tools.

Bad Boy quality at a lower price
I was worried the smaller mower would feel cheap, but it has the same welded steel frame as the bigger Bad Boys. Very happy with the purchase.

Compact and tough
Weaves between my trees and flower beds easily. Flip-up floorboard makes cleaning underneath a breeze.

Good first zero-turn
Learning curve was quick and the seat lift for maintenance access is a nice touch. Runs great after a full season.
