That's a nice machine and I'll bet you paid a bundle for it, you may not believe this now but soon your going to want a bigger one.
Have fun and be careful

Not a bigger one, but, maybe.....another one

Seriously, I can't imagine needing a bigger machine. This thing has done everything I've asked of it in a little over ten hours use. This winter, I've got another couple of acres of bottomland down the hill behind my house that needs to be cleaned up. All told, maybe have 3 1/2 acres to rotary cut. If I had lots of open space to mow, I'd probably want a bigger machine cut a wider swath on each pass (and I have a riding mower that I use on about 1 1/2 acres of yard...yard stays...not wet, but is moist in a couple spots from seapage from underground, and lighter weight mower with turfs seems better for this). Rest of property is wooded.

I'm also going to clean up some paths through the woods the former owner let go, and the smaller machine seems better suited for the job.

Of course, after this one's paid off......
