I thought they were a little pricey in that size. Even if the KingKutter is less expensive, it's got to be pushing $2000. I have an L3600 which is about 40 hp, 31 at the PTO. I guess it should handle it fine...do you agree? I have 2-3 acres of field that are in view of the house but I never finish cut them before, only with a bush hog. There are no rocks or stumps, only orchard grass and the usual weeds. Actually, my neighbors cut them for hay up until a few years ago. I wouldn't mind having them look better and I guess this mower would help that, and get through them quickly!. Thanks for your response.
