The Troybilt name is just one of many former reputable brand names out there that continue to dupe the public into thinking they're buying a quality product.

I hear ya... my dad still uses my grandfather's 1970 Troybilt rototiller. That is one stout piece of equipment. The carb has never been rebuilt on it either.
