Important

Needing to buy a new gas push mower. No need for self-propelled or bag or mulch, just simple 21+" cut and side discharge. Can go upto $300 but do not want to order one online. I trust what you guys say.

something with a honda motor.

or a decent clone of a honda motor.

new briggs suck balls.

or if you want to be cheap, free mower from the side of the road and a predator.
I dn't deal with small engines anymore. I just repower them with honda clones.
 
The best margarita recipe is as follows, open a bottle of tequila, then open a bottle of rum, put four ice cubes in a tall glass, pour four or five fingers of rum is the glass, top it off with coke. Dump the tequila down the sink. Drink the rum and coke.
 
Put your ice and shitload of tequila in a blender and make a tequila slushy, add a little but of your magartia mix for the color, then add agave nectar. It ends up being mostly booze, and no one can tell. Seriously, everyone will be hammered after a couple. By the way, the cheaper the teqila and mix the better

I should clarify, I meant lasting like 20 years like some of the mowers my grandpa had when I was a kid. I expect 8-10 years out of a push mower that isn't cheap.



I have a 1964 simplicity in the shed that mows the yard. It was $450 in 1964, which is about $4500 now.

If you buy a $4500 mower it will last that long. You don't know how much a good mower costs.

dad's john deere is 25 years old.

also a 5K+ mower.

and the flying club has a pair of 20+ year old riders. Cub Cadet made by IH is unkillable.
 
Starting to build my collection back up.

The MJ I hope will be a go fast sand/street truck when I'm done , if I ever start it. She's not perfect, but very repairable. Waggy header panel I got from cheese will be her first mod.

The XJ is my son-in-laws jeep I bought because he joins the Air Force.

You can never have too many jeeps, right?

What about Cub Cadets? I know the new B&S are junk, kind of sad but eh. We have a pair of 30yr old Monkeyward rider's at my dads but my yard is way too small with a small hill that the rider wont make up.

Found a swivel front tire Honda at Sams but for $400. Whats the deal with the swivel front tires, attempt at zero turn for pushers?

find an old one.
give $400 for it.
have mower that lasts forever.

for serious. The ones built by IH have plate frames. They're build like IH built tractors.
Old horizontal shaft kohlers that are cheap to rebuild and pretty much last forever if not abused.
find you a 1650.

that said my buddy has a newish one and it's not a pile. It's far better than the Husqvarna pile of shit it replaced.
I think his has a kohler commercil motor on it. unsure. It's not broken, so I haven't had to fix it. Unlike the husqvarna that needed constant attention.
 
Sorry to confuse. I need a push mower for my house. I can not use a rider. I would really like to buy new and be pisswd off in a year when it shitsthebed
 
get a goat and an adjustable leash...you have a mower and a "partner" anytime.
