[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 2974199, member: 24531"] Thanks for the response - that mower, although a diff brand/color looks like the one my grand parents had in the mid 80's and it was old and faded then LOL. Prob a solid piece of equipment from America's glory days. I'm looking for new though, pawn shop by my house had something used (looked like 42 or 46) I saw today when I drove by and $1400 on the tag...I kept driving LOL. Push mower would take hours...lotta hill and back yard is 170ft x maybe 130ft (oddly shaped though since house is on a winding road). Yes it is a deal, BUT, I think I have suckered myself into the 42" fuel injected Cub...they have it for 1700ish. It is a single 5xxcc cub factory motor and comes with the front bumper bar which costs extra on the others. That twin is a deal though, but I think since I was considering a 30" originally, the 42 is a good compromise for 1/2 acre...if I ever get more land I'm sure I would want a 48 or 50 anyway so I could upgrade later? WHAT DO Y'ALL THINK ABOUT THE 42" CUB FUELIE? LOL, he uses one of those kind you stand and ride on; it looks like its 30yrs old. He isn't quitting mowing all together, just mine. He is retired and does it for something to do...our old lawn was cake...this new one is 3 times as large and much more challenging...my mom bought my old house and retained him as the lawn care; he is gonna keep mowing it as well as my mother-in-laws lawn. So I'm SOL on that option, my lawn too much for him. [/QUOTE]
