They already exist and have for years.
No kidding. I could probably tow with my troy-bilt
I would f'in hope it would still run like new after 2 years. That is hardly a long time in the life of a lawnmower.Take care of your shit and it won't break down so quickly.
I've had my Troy-Bilt for ~2 years, and still runs like new. Rear-wheel drive for the win.

Eh, maybe should have said 'looks like new.'
I've known folks to go through a mower a year...but that's just blatant carelessness.
in the market for a mower also. Is RWD preferred over FWD? How about 4WD? I have a relatively flat lot. 0.37 acres
Self powered and super cheap. Low maintenance as well.
Don't they shit all over the place and then you have to pick it up?

Not gonna take the time to explain it but, RWD is the ONLY way to go!in the market for a mower also. Is RWD preferred over FWD? How about 4WD? I have a relatively flat lot. 0.37 acres
this is the truth!it's probably a ford versus chevy thing (i'm showing my age) but i've had both and i greatly prefer front wheel drive. If you have a lot of things to mow around or have to make a lot of turns just push down on the handlebar to lift the front=no more drive. Far easier to use than rear wheel drive.
Self propelled is basically just as reliable as push types and very nearly the same price. If you don't get at least a decade out of a mower you just aren't trying. My last one i dumped at 25 years because the deck rusted through and i was to lazy to bondo it.
Personally i stay away from **honda-overpriced initially and parts prices are insanely priced,** and over complicated. But if you are the type that wants neighborhood prestige so for it.
Brand name of the mower isn't as important as the brand name of the engine. Don't get a no-name chinese engine.
Beautiful. It's pricey, but I desperately want to buy into their modular system:

agree with the overpriced parts prices. An auger for my Honda snowblower goes for $350 brand new. I ended up buying two of the same snowblowers for $250 and just refurbishing them. the only problem is now i have 3 snowblowers, LOL.Personally I stay away from Honda-overpriced initially and parts prices are insanely priced, and over complicated.

I'm actually buying one of these soon. I'm doing my homework now on the best brand.
Post here the model you choose. I'm curious how capable they are.
They have way way better traction. My folks have one of the FWD ones and you have to be super careful not to put any pressure on the bars or it loses traction even on a flat lot. Big wheel + RWD is what you want if you're in a situation where self propelled is really useful in the first place.
