I would stick with a later model with live pto for mowing and live hydraulics for a loader and 3 point. Power steering is also a plus if you have a loader. On a 10 acre place, you will be amazed how much you will want a loader, so between a loader and blade on a 3 point (or Fast Hitch if you can find an adaptor or F-H blade), you can maintain your driveway winter and summer.
Although a live pto isn't an absolute nessesity, it sure is nice with a mower.
BTW, I have a 240U with PS, loader and blade and a circle drive about 5 -600' long. I don't mow with it, but it would work with a 5 or 6' mower.
