If it were me, I would stretch my budget a little and get a used compact diesel with a hydrostatic trans of what ever color you prefer. I have 3 acres that was a house on a hay field 32 years ago. I bought an 8n with a flail mower and a back blade. It only took a year of mowing before the "hay field" became what I call good grass and I started saving for a finish mower. I still have and and use my 8n, but I do nearly all my yard maintenance with 2 used (88,92) Kubotas I've had for 10 and 14 years respectively. My guess is you won't be brush hogging very long on 3 acres before you want the grass to look nice. The amount of fuel you save in 15 years will more than cover the additional cost. My Kubota's will cut the grass for 1/3 the fuel of the 8n. This is what my hay field looks like now.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
