I've been looking into whether Milwaukee has plans to develop a riding lawn mower. I noticed many of their competitors already have these products out, and honestly, I think their MX batteries should be powerful enough to handle the job. However, I've found it hard to track down any concrete information on this. What are your thoughts?

I think Ryobi has a riding mower out already. But honestly, I'm deeply invested in the Milwaukee tools, so I'd prefer if Milwaukee made one to stick with the same brand. Until then, I might just have to stick to push mowing patiently waiting for them to release a riding mower.
I wouldn't be surprised if they come out with one eventually. It seems like a tough market right now, though. The cost of the Mexican platform is a factor, especially since their 80V batteries would end up being more expensive than Ryobi's 40V. Until they can make it commercially viable, I doubt they'll push it out. Plus, a mower has to run efficiently to be appealing to consumers!
