While taking my daughter to school yesterday morning, spotted this gem for sale by the side of the road. Paid $300 for the whole rig, including the rider. Guy selling it said it wasn't running and didn't want to take the time to see why. Ran home and grabbed the trailer then brought it home. Took a look at it and found the little 5hp on the trailer would not start. Cleaned the carb and a new spark plug and it fired up.
This thing isn't much to look at, the guy said he bought it all new in 1999, but man it took all the work out of leaf removal. I have a good chunk of land around the house I usually clear the leaves on, usually with a backpack blower. I will never use another leaf blower, this thing is awesome. How's everyone else dealing with all these damn leaves? Edit: Stock photo. Can't figure out how to make my photo account private
