Man called a few mins ago wanting 20 acres of knee high grass mowed. Said it was all level, no tree's and no junk piles. I told him $60 per machine hr and I can do about 1 acre per hr, faster if I feel it's safe to do so.
He said that was outragous. I suggested he call around, then look into renting a tractor and mower.
I think folks underestimate the cost of fuel and insurance. I hope he gets his field mowed. Luckily I'm not starving, but if I were I'd be making pennies per acre. I prefer dirt work anyway....I always bust something mowing.
