any thoughts on the new lawn boy mowers?
Original Message   Aug 16, 2005 1:34 pm
    Lawn mower's,  I have recently installed a concrete mow strip around all of my yard.  My 25 year old snapper is a good old mower, BUT  the mow strip dosn't work as planned, I thought this was going to reduce the need for edging some.

 Anywho,  I saw the new lawn-boy mower's have front wheels that are inset, which makes the deck stick out further, and this seems like it would allow me to get a closer cut around the edge of my yard, especially in the tight corners. 

My question at this point is, Are there any other mower's that have inset wheels besides the lawnboy's, that one can currently buy new?   Do you think this feature will even help?   If I did look into this mower further, I would have a choice of either a tecumseh or honda gvc motor?

I also just kind of want a new mower anyway, the snapper is so slow, very loud and makes my hands tingle for an hour after I've used it.  But it does mulch really well with that ninja mulching kit I put on it

I also like the color green, on a mower

I edited the the subject, because it was dumb.

That's a great review Mang.  Now we know that there's a foot operated lever making the handles easier for storage.  Did you happen to notice if any of the Toro's have this feature too?
