Comparing Turfco®? Here's the Triumph, spec for spec.

Turfco® publishes the T3200 at 510 lb empty (523 lb with the T-Flex15 tank); PermaGreen publishes the Triumph at 440 lb empty. That makes the T3200 70 lb, or 15.9%, heavier than the Triumph. With the hopper and spray tanks full the gap grows: Turfco's operator's manual lists the T3200 at 851 lb with its 175 lb hopper and 20-gallon tanks full (989 lb with the T-Flex15), and its tray holds another 100 lb. A Triumph with its 12-gallon tank and 150 lb hopper full works out to about 690 lb, with water at 8.34 lb per gallon. Turfco lists the T5000 at 875 lb — 98.9% heavier than the Triumph. Weight matters for the lawn too: the University of Maryland Extension notes that driving on soil compacts it and that wet soil compacts more easily than dry soil, and Clemson's Home & Garden Information Center advises lightweight mowing equipment when the soil is wet, because compacted soil stresses turfgrass and weakens it over time.

Yes. Turfco® states that the T3200 "fits through a 36" gate," and its operator's manual lists the machine at 35.5 inches wide. The PermaGreen Triumph fits standard 36-inch residential gates too, so gate access is a tie between those two. Turfco lists the T5000, at 47 inches wide, as fitting a 48-inch gate.

No. Turfco® describes both the T3200 and the T5000 as boomless — the T3200 adjusts from 4 to 11 feet with a 4-foot trim setting and a hand wand, and the T5000's two-nozzle system adjusts from 4 to 13 feet. The PermaGreen Triumph has no boom either: its patented single-nozzle system sprays 11–13 ft broadcast and 3 ft trim.

Turfco® publishes the T3200 at 20 gallons (35 with the optional T-Flex15 tank) with a 175 lb hopper and a 100 lb tray, and the T5000 at 60 gallons (75 with T-Flex15) with 325 lb of granular capacity in all. The Triumph's 12-gallon tank and 150 lb hopper are sized to treat an acre per fill, and an acre takes about 15 minutes. A bigger tank means fewer refills, but each refill takes longer. From the same hose, 20 gallons in the T3200 take 1.6 times as long to fill as the Triumph's 12 gallons, and 60 gallons in the T5000 take 5 times as long. A full T3200 tank also holds about 67 lb more water than the Triumph's, and a full T5000 tank about 400 lb more.
