Default I bought a new Honda!

Some might think this is a joke, but I'm serious... Its actually a Honda Lawnmower! I'll have pics soon. This thing is so sweet, we went from a 14 year old mower to this beast. It has 2 blades, so it mulches like no other. Its also RWD! But thats bit of a pain when turing the mower 180, you can't keep the wheels going while turning. Starting her up is easy too, I just barely pull the string and it starts up good. I LOVE it. It requires an oil change after 10 hours... Should I go synthetic? Hahahha..

And since our snow blower is starting to go bad, I might start looking at some Honda snowblowers!

Then our garage will be 100% Honda/Acura. I swear, Honda makes some DAMN good products. I love my lawn mower, and I hope I'll love the snowblower.

Reminds me of that one commercial.... The guy wakes up and plows his driveway with his Honda snowblower, opens the garage and theres a NSX, but he climbs in his CRV I think it was? Takes a drive to his cottage, starts the Honda generator to power it, mows the lawn with a Honda mower, goes 4 wheeling in his Honda ATV.

I am not trying to bring you down, but do a search for past posts on this.
My Honda mower, model GVC 160, is a huge piece of crap. Worked fine until warranty ran out, then it died too. I, myself, have rebuilt the carb, new plug, air filter, oil, still coughs and backfires.
The guy at the lawnmower repair shop told me " Honda builds great cars and really shitty lawnmowers... buy a Toro or Lawnboy instead."

Sorry, I was just saying I bought something new and was pretty excited about it.. If I just read posts from a search no one would know I have one... If I bought a new RSX, just do a serach on RSX and not post up what I think about it? Not asking a question or anything..

I dunno, maybe they took a turn, my buddies is running on 7 years, no problems. Hell, they haven't recharged the key start ONCE yet. There have been good reviews on reliability on epinions.com too.

honda makes good motors in general. preassure washers, compressors, generators, lawnmowers, etc... they are the best.
we just moved in a new house, and it has a 1/2 acre of land. i got to mow this ****, ill probably buy a honda mower, as long as they make a riding one.

Wow, you got my brain thinking... What if you DID put something like a b16 on a mower? Unh, tranny issues, weight, what a pain... Nevermind, too much work.

How about a NOS on the mower?
