I generally charge 70/h for tractors in your 5000's class and I don't think that's overly expensive either. On the other hand, you could do some math yourself.

Surely you can cut more than that per hour with a 10' mower?
For my own part I'd sooner work by the hour. That way, it takes whatever time it takes. I get paid for what I do. If somebody has a mess they want dealt with and it takes a lot of time... that's their problem. If somebody has a bunch of little pieces scattered out over 10 miles, they pay for wasting my time. It's very simple. When I turn the key, the clock starts. When I shut it off, the clock stops. If you don't like that, call someone else...
