Bad Boy MZ Rambler 42 Inch Zero Turn Mower, 19 HP Briggs, Built for Smaller Yards
The MZ Rambler is Bad Boy's smallest zero turn: a 42 inch welded steel deck, a 19 HP Briggs EX1900 engine and dual Hydro-Gear ZT 2200 drives on the same heavy gauge frame as the ZT Elite and MZ Magnum. It fits through a 48 inch gate, turns on the spot around beds and trees, and mows up to 6 mph. Available from Peach Country Tractor, your Bad Boy dealer in Mullica Hill, NJ, set up and ready to run.
Why Homeowners Pick the MZ Rambler
- Commercial style frame. Bad Boy builds the Rambler on the same heavy gauge, all welded steel frame as its ZT Elite and MZ Magnum, not a lightweight stamped chassis.
- Welded, not stamped, deck. A 42 inch sloped deck in 3/16 inch or 7 gauge steel with reinforced edges and 1/4 inch side plates, per Bad Boy.
- Dual Hydro-Gear ZT 2200 drives. Independent hydrostatic drives on each rear wheel give the true zero turning radius and a 6 mph ground speed.
- Deck height dial. Cutting height from 1.5 to 4.5 inches with a foot assist lift and a dial style adjuster; the lift pedal can be set up on the left or right.
- Maintenance free spindles and electric PTO. PEER sealed spindles need no greasing, and the blades engage with a switch.
- Steering dampers and a flip up floorboard. Smoother, tighter steering and easy access to the deck for cleaning and blade changes.

Who the MZ Rambler Is For
- Yards up to about an acre. Bad Boy positions it as its smallest zero turn, sized for suburban lots with beds, trees and tight gates.
- Moving up from a lawn tractor. Zero turn steering cuts mowing time on properties with a lot of trimming and backing up.
- Storage in a standard shed. At 42 inches wide with the chute up, it fits where a 54 or 60 inch deck will not.
