Compare Mowers
List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.
Best suited for
What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.
- Troy-Bilt Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 54-inch deck; gas powered
- Husqvarna Z254FX — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 54-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower uses a Kohler® engine; Z254FX uses a Kawasaki engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
- Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower lists at $3,649; Z254FX lists at $4,699, a $1,050 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower has a 11-gauge steel deck; Z254FX has a Steel deck.
- Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower cuts from 1 in (25 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm); Z254FX cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4 in (102 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
- Mustang Z54 Zero-Turn Mower has a 45.6 ci (747 cc) engine; Z254FX has a 44.3 ci (725.9 cc) engine, a 1.3 ci difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
