Buy ZTM or stick with finish mower?

[tow653]

We have about 16 acres,9 of it used to get baled,neighbor doesn't want to do it anymore. It was not baled until mid to late July,and we would then keep it mowed after that. Currently mowing it all with a 02 NH TC29,with a Woods 60" finish mower. It takes right at 6 hrs to mow it now,and am happy enough with the cut. I am wondering if I should by a ZTR to do the job. Time is not an issue,I am retired. Tractor is an 02 and only has about 575 hrs on it,only other use is snow removal,not alot,brush hogging,again not alot,and some small food plots. Would I be wise to save the hours on tractor and buy a commercial duty ZTR,or just keep doing,budget for ZTR would be around $4000.00. Other option would be to buy wider finish mower when this one craps out,when,who knows? Thanks in advance for your ideas.

I cant find a true commercial ZTR in the $4000 range , best be looking at $6000 plus . Your better off buying a Ferris , rides better than the others .Myself I like comfort so if time is not a issue I would stick with what your doing now
