What are the strengths of a RER Original Message Jun 23, 2005 1:57 pm
I really like the size of the rear engine riders like the snappers. I'm curious though why not many people seem to use them, What are they good at? bad at? etc. my home is on 1/3 acre and has about 5600 sqft of grass to cut, no trees in the grass, and hill in the back ( I could post pics if I need to). thank you in advance

From what I have experienced the dealer would really only like to do that for a regular customer. I have an Ariens dealer close by that let sometimes lets his customers use the machine at their home. If you don't like it he has to take a discount off of it, and that's a loss. I would think a Deere dealer would have more leeway. It all depends on the dealer.

IF HE HAS ANY GRASS AROUND THE DEALERSHIP GIVE IT A SHOT. I SUGGEST RIDING AROUND ON IT ANYWAY BEFORE YOU BUY. YOU CAN GET A PRETTY GOOD IDEA FOR THE FEEL OF IT AND IT'S MANUVERABILITY ON A DRIVEWAY OR PARKING LOT.
