And if you're doing much roadwork at potentially a litre a mile..........If you're helping each other out on a regular basis I'd take a view- these things tend to balance themselves out and can work well.
I can't comment on an hourly rate beyond that but having sat on a tractor the other day flail topping some heavyish ground and seeing the fuel consumption varying from 15 to 38l / hr was very sobering and a good reminder that for the investment there's not actually that much "in the job" on pure hourly work
38litres an hour seems pretty high to run a topper. My small challenger will drill 30 acres an hour using not much more than that. May check for a leaky pipe. That’s not being an arse. I had that and was pouring out diesel underneath.If you're helping each other out on a regular basis I'd take a view- these things tend to balance themselves out and can work well.

Local one man band contractor had issues with his tractor at the start of the season, so he hired a tractor off someone.Whatever you're charging, if you charge, make sure you tell them BEFORE you do the work.
Then everyone knows where they stand, you might find they suddenly don't need a hand after all.
