Default Using your Rover to cut the lawn?

Hello Good People,
Curious to know if anyone has used their Rover to cut their lawn.
Possibly using a brush hog / bush hog?

T.I.A.

Yes would need a POT. Was wondering if any creative daredevils on the forum modified something to make it happen.
Howski said Florida DOT used some Series trucks to mow right of ways back in the day.

There is definitely a PTO. When I joined the forum a few weeks ago I read through the entire D1 section. Somewhere around (I think) the 175ish page it was brought up. Apparently it was ****ty, but it's there.

Edit... The actual PTO isn't there, but it's a part you can get and the ability to install it is behind a plate. I don't remember the exact details.
