Gotta agree with JLO power, bought a refurb Troy bilt Horse model in the mid 80's right from the factory in Troy NY, great workmanship etc. They last forever IF you take care of them. ;)

    I used a Gravely with a rotary cultivator this spring. Hold on! It was crazy! I called it the death auger!

    Gotta have some Gilson. Built with love in Plymouth WI!
    The Gilson walk behind has been going for 30 years with only one idler pulley and a recoil rope but the Alis Chalmers 314D with the rear rototiller attachment is going on 42 years but has needed to be fixed a few times.

    I rented a Honda 800 something for a couple years and when that thing would hook up it took you for a ride.

    Dad bought it new.  Sold it.  Found it and bought it back for me when I was a youngster.  Then I sold it for mud tire money when I was 17. :-(

    We had a gravely for a while but no cultivator attachment, just a sickle bar and a rotary mower.  It had two speeds, high and low I guess but it was more like jog and run.  It would really mow if you could keep up with it.
