I realize we're in the dead of winter here, but I'm looking at buying a rear tine tiller this spring. I'm planning on putting my garden about 100 yards from my shed. I'm generally a Honda person, but their rear tine tiller is a lot of money! The biggest difference I see on the Honda vs. others like Troy-Bilt is the fact that is has multiple speeds. How important is having a separate transport speed?
