Same here. I live west of Nashua.
I probably mowed my lawn more times last year than ever before. I was literally out there every four days cutting.
I crazy thing is that I did it to myself. When I bought this house 13 years ago it was totally in the woods. It had no yard at all. There were 1-3 foot diameter trees within 15 feet of the house built in 1972. I hired a logging crew that cut for a week. Twice after that I had an excavator in to turn areas into a lawn/field.
So, now IF I cut everything at the same time it takes about two hours on my 1999 John Deere 42” deck riding lawn mower.
Recently, I have been watching FB marketplace to buy an Exmark or Scag commercial landscape mower. Something with a 52” deck.
Even used these machines are still worth $5-7K. I am trying to find one with only a 300 hours or less. A landscaper will easily put 1000-1500 hours on these machines before trading them in. So, even a year like last I would only out 70 hours a season on a machine. Meaning it would last me 20 years.
I would stick with a rider mower or a tractor with a mower. Those commercial mowers with very tight turning radius are murder on your back, imho.
