MIKE MC is an unknown quantity at this point
I would use a half ton truck(5000.00) and a light trailer(1500.00) for better fuel mileage. But i would spended a little more and buy a zero turn mower maybe a 52 with a 20 hp for (7500.00) to start with because you will end up with one anyway because one will out mow two walk behinds by the end of the day,one small belt walkbehind, (2500), blowers(300), trimmers (600), hedge trimmer(350), edger(350) , a bagger (300) to pick grass up when needed, cheap push mower hopefully not used much (250). Around 19,000. Most people who have there lawn mowed also have someone do the fert. I would also do that will you are there. stay in as small of an area as you can to reduce drive time which will be hard because of the reason that you are expanding into this , but if you get another hardscape job out of it I think it may be worth it.
