With both Z turns mowing we can mow the 8 acres in around 1 hour 20 minutes. About half our yard we can mow at or near top speed the other half is a little to rough and with all the trees, Etc. we need to slow down. Went with commercial mowers hoping they with be the last mowers we ever need to buy.

Around 8 acres.

We have owned a Hustler Super Z (35HP Kawasaki w/72" deck) for 7 years. Nice mower. My wife generally ran the zero turn while I mowed with the tractor. This year I sold my street bike and snowmobile and bought another Z turn for myself. A Snapper Pro s200xt (37 HP Vanguard EFI w/72" deck)

Correction. Out of curiosity I went to the barn to look. My DK 35 does have that plug. I just never used it. Its an extra oil fill port. You can fill engine oil at the valve cover or use that port, which ever is easier

I don't think my DK 35 has that plug (can't remember, I'd have to look, I generally fill mine through the valve cover port). But it does look like an extra engine oil fill port to me.

Just looks like an engine oil fill plug to me.

I get plenty on seat time during the summer, between mowing, loader work, tilling, ect. I'm always using the tractor for something through the summer. (I have 2130 hours on my DK 35 ) Winter seat time depends on the amount of snow needing plowed.

+1 If a rod went through the block its pretty much dead.

Went from no mowing to can't keep up. I think I can almost see our grass growing.

I think you would be fine with even a 60" tiller. I run a 72" King Kutter II tiller on my tractor with 28.3 PTO HP just fine.

We got around 3" of snow on the ground over night. Calling for lows in the 20's most of next week. Likely be into May before we do our first mow.

I'm so lucky here the volume of riding I can do right from my house. Miles of old railroad tracks, many dozens of different logging roads, coal mine roads, township roads, Etc. I could probably ride for days and never hit the same road\trail twice.

Is that $50 per machine or per rider ?

Looks like fun. Maybe some day. I would like to ride there, but have never made it.

I like these, the Polaris General Sport/utility UTV 100 HP twin. https://general.polaris.com/en-us/

Textron has a new sport/utility model out that I think looks interesting. The Hovac 100 HP twin cylinder, probably competing with the Polaris General type models. https://www.textronoffroad.com/side-by-side/rec-utility/havoc

That's a 4 seater General. I think the 2 seat General is around 1490 lbs.

I think most sport side by sides are in the 1100-1400 pound range. My RZR S 900 EPS (electronic power steering) weighs 1230 pounds dry weight. https://rzr.polaris.com/en-us/rzr-s-900-eps-black-pearl/specs/

I generally order parts I need from Michigan Iron. Here's the DK 40 decal page https://shop.michiganironandequip.com/OEMpartfinder.htm#/Kioti_Tractor/CHASSIS/LABEL_GROUP_DK40-T1045B/01-06%7C~DK40-M-CHASSIS/0106DK400135

I liked this video of the Pioneer 1000 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee51e7U5eMA
