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. You must know how many acres you can mow per hour. You know what you want per acre.... It seems to me that if you cut more than 2-2.5 acres per hour on an hourly rate you'll be shorting yourself.
