History In 1964, Hustler Turf Equipment was born of a simple need for a riding mower that could maneuver the irregular landscape of the family home, complete with birdbaths, gardens and winding front walkways. The first Hustler mower was a compilation of mower parts and farm machinery, created by John Regier. Regier’s mower cut grass and steered like none before, with its capabilities to hug a flagpole or reverse directions at a fence line, all with a turning radius of zero. With this, the world’s first zero-turn mower was born. Since then, Hustler has continued to innovate the mower category through its introduction of the Raptor®, a value priced zero-turn mower with high-end features. Hustler broke into the UTV market with the introduction of its MDV™, a maximum duty utility vehicle with patented LeveLift™ bed technology which allows users to load or dump at any point along the mechanisms arc of motion.
