Snapper 1226 or 1428 ? Updated
Original Message   Jan 11, 2009 1:28 pm
Ok, getting late in the season so throwers are hard to find around here.

I can still get my hands on a Snapper 1226 or a 1428

I was all keen on the 1428 - I like the slightly bigger and better MAX series engine, the slightly wider cut path and particularly the easy turn feature.
But then I looked harder at the numbers and the 1226 will work about about $340 less.
 
My situation:
Crushed gravel driveway about 40' x 25'; crushed gravel parking area about 20' x 10', clearing regular heavy plow debris form around mailbox and couple of paved pathways totaling about 70' length.  I can only throw one way off driveway and parking area.  Possibly paving driveway next summer so not really for premium for tracked machine.

What would you do??
Thx
