Many on the forums live by the 5HP / ft rule, and it probably is a good rule of thumb to follow, but after getting a 5' KK bush hog and mowing 2 acre pasture twice with it I am so glad I did not get a 48" cutter. Probably a 54" cutter is best suited for our size tractors but I figured I could easily take a little less cut, but there is no need for it, my B2620 had plenty of HP for full cuts though I did not get into 4' tall green full growth and doubt I ever will.
even with a 5' wide cutter it takes some time to mow a few acres at a decent speed. get the 5'er if it's free that's even better....
