Rather than spending 4 hours (or even two hours and the price of a new mower) cutting that much lawn: Unless the polo team or soccer league or golf group is using your lawn, cut about half an acre around the house (firebreak and space you actually use) and put crops or shrubs (or shrub crops) or trees (or tree crops) on the rest, or hay it (well, technically that falls under crops).
Or fence it and graze it and eat whatever you graze on it.
I just can't get into wor$hiping the lawn mon$ter for the sake of a lot of green space that's not used. Of course, perhaps you actually use it, I don't know - I do know that's a whole lotta lawn unless there is some active use of it as a playing field or the like. I've seen it go both ways - folks I assume have horses (or got tired of maintaining that much lawn and barter with someone) who hay (or have hayed by others) what was obviously an old formal lawn (must make for one smooth, flat field), and folks a few miles away that mow many acres of former pasture/hayfield into rolling lawn to no obvious purpose other than buying more gas for the lawnmower.
Around here Bunton's seem to be popular with the lawn care pros, though that's mostly the walk behind (or stand on a sulky behind) versions - don't see many of the sit-down zero-turn units in commercial service here.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. 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.
