10 acres to mow with that mower. It sure will have its job cut out for it so you better get that 7th speed fixed. Just how long dose it take you to mow that much lawn with that small of a mower?

Beautiful open spaces and I like your spirit, but you need to work on the variator so it will have all 7 gears, fence 9 acres for sheep and get a couple of guard dogs for the wolves.

I haven't tried yet we just bought the place in November and the grass has just hit the point that it needs to be mowed even if it takes all day I'm good with it I will just buy a 12 pack vs a 6 pack :thumbsup:

Not a good plan. Been there done that. In fact, done it all. Even if it works for now you'll regret it in later years.

After the 12 pack and mowing 10 acres with that mower you just sleep good that evening. I was thinking more like 2 days so you better buy two 12 packs. With that much lawn you might think about buying something with a 60 in cut.

Beautiful property! Fantastic view!

Even if it takes a whole weekend I'm fine with it for now. in my part of co this grass gets cut maybe 3 times a year

I will be upgrading soon as I can afford it but mama bear needs a new kitchen and I need to build my shooting range first.....maybe next season?
