Tiller

[dwkwalk365]

Gettin ready to retire and am updating my yard and garden equipment. I have been using Sears 5 hp rear tine for years and years and years, It is still running strong but want a bigger model. Still using 1990 Deere 175 and it just refuses to die. I am torn between the Cub Cadet tiller and the Husquavna. Any advice would be welcome.

I've had a Honda FR700 rear tine tiller for 25 years and it starts 2nd pull every time. It has 2 speeds forward and 1 reverse. It is really a home owners model but they make a heavier duty version. I've seen used ones of the heavy duty variety online on Craigslist for about $1200 to $1800. I don't know what they go for new. The FR 700's go for about $500 to $800. I don't see either one very often though. Good luck
