Popular Post Gene Howe Posted March 15, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 We use a large tow behind mower for the majority of the mowing but, around the house and out buildings, we've been using weed eaters of one sort or another. At our age, lugging around those machines is getting to be a real chore. Plus, the amount of area takes a lot of time, too. So yesterday, this little gem was delivered. We'll not totally be free of the weed eaters but, there'll be far less need. Fred W. Hargis Jr, Dadio, Cal and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred W. Hargis Jr Posted March 15, 2017 Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 Agree, the string trimmers are for younger (than me) folks. So are the push mowers. Gene Howe and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Morris Posted March 15, 2017 Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 I'd love something like that! Reality is, for my yard you'd climb atop it, turn it on, engage the cutter, done!! Climb back off. Dadio and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually takes us 2 or 3 days to do it all...at least the way she wants it done. Luckily, we only need to mow maybe 3 or 4 times a year....depending on our rains. But, now, I get to ride, too.

The tow vehicle has a roof and a windshield. Might need an umbrella for the little mower, though. Chips N Dust and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
