I am in nearly the situation you are. We recently moved out to our tree farm. I am maintaining ~2 acres of mostly lawn. I have a zero turn mower that isn't cutting it (no pun intended). The ground it too steep for the zero turn.
I posted a thread a couple weeks ago and got similar responses regarding differences between the lawn tractor and subcompact. Pretty much everyone, including the dealers, thought the subcompact was a better option.
At this point, I'd give the same advice as others. Go bigger than a lawn tractor. You are mowing quite a bit of ground. I also think the brush cutter would be much better if only mowing "pasture" grass. I think it will handle taller grass better than a mmm, assuming you won't be mowing often.
