Our 20+ year old Toro lawn mower was giving up the ghost. Wheels fell off last year, Rick had to repair the drive on the self propelled thing, something was always falling off, and it was in sad shape.

We picked up a Craftsman mower with a Honda motor this week.

This morning Rick put the old one outside. We stuck a paper on it that read "Free. It runs!" We even included the owner's manual.

It was gone in less than an hour.

We aren't exactly on a high traffic street, and it wasn't trash pick up day, so we were surprised it went that quickly.

Hope someone gets some use out of it.

 

I got it running fine. I'm gonna rent it to Steve to haul wood.

 

 

...and here it is in action! Can you blame Bill?

 

It was already running, didn't you see the sign?

Hope it went to a good home.

 

Gene, the Toro served us well. Had you stopped at our house the year of the Nor'Easter, you'd know we didn't need a rider mower.

That Toro did start on the first pull just about every time. We'll see if he Honda motor is any good.
