we currently have 2 of these a 2010 and a 2005. we have 90 peach trees- 30 pear trees- 300 moringa trees plus 2 small 1 acre ponds with a 385 foot canal between them. Well I personally hate getting slapped in the face with tree limbs and we enjoy the banks mowed. I REALLY wish I could get a 72 inch cut with more horsepower but these work GREAT we have had zero turns but then had to go back weedeating that sucks
