Considering a sickle mower for road and ditch trimming.  Prefer 6 or 7 foot.  No experience, what's a good RELIABLE recommendation, esp brand wise?  Not a situation of wanting a native or fixer upper unit at this time.

no brand, just a comment.. I have an old 1940  Allis sickle mounted on a B tractor.. Works OK... but it would be nice if  you could angle the bar and cut on slopes and hill sides... The old pitman arm type you can only tilt a few degrees from horizontal... Some models are belt drive out the the bar/ cam shaft area.. Those you can tilt quite a bit ... Something to keep in mind..
Like them all, but love the "B"s.

Buy an AC  82T trailer type is best bet. Easy on and of. Cut in almost any position. Use one around our pond. Works Great! Tracy
No greater gift than healthy grandkids!

As far as 3pt hitch mowers New Holland 451 and John Deere 350 are two of the best
