nylyon-(Admin) 7,132 #1 Posted October 20, 2007 Well here it is the new RER: Looks like Brittany is claiming this one. She can just reach the clutch, so it's a pretty good fit. Check out that blade, ever seen anything like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curmudgeon 28 #2 Posted October 20, 2007 HEY, that's TORO, not Wheel Horse by Toro!!!! I do believe you're in the wrong column here. And I was picturing a Wheel Horse rear engine rider all this time. Such a disappointment..................... Dale, in Michigan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kj4kicks 151 #3 Posted October 20, 2007 That is one UGLY blade. You should call it gumby, cuz it sure won't chew any grass! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dale, in Michigan Yeah I know, but if it were just a couple of years newer it would say Wheel Horse on it. Besides it didn't seem right to post it in the "other brands" area. Maybe I can put a Wheel Horse sticker on it :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,366 #6 Posted October 21, 2007 Karl, Not a bad looking mower - except the blade. Looks like your girl is a tractor junkie in the making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karl Karl, I think Brittany your daughter looks on her new used free TORO riding mower maybe she can do lawn duty for now on so your 416-H and 414-8 can have a rest from all that hard work you put them through.

nylyon-(Admin) 7,132 #8 Posted October 24, 2007 Got my new blade in the mail today. Put it on and give it a shot on the wet grass and leaves. It does okay, I don't think that I'll retire the 400's just yet though. But to be fair, I used it on a part of the yard that is difficult anyway. I'll have to try it on another area, but after it dries out a little bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,366 #10 Posted October 29, 2007 Karl, Grass looks nice. Ours here looks bad, with the drought, the hot temperatures the last few months and now frost...... Also, I take it that you will keep the RER then..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,132 #11 Posted October 29, 2007 Also, I take it that you will keep the RER then..... Nope, just put it up for sale. As fun as it is, and it is fun to drive, with the hills it doesn't feel stable to me. The kids are going to be angry at me, but it has to go. I just put it on Craigslist http://hudsonvalley.craigslist.org/grd/463138830.html Hope I can get $50 out of it. If it doesn't sell there, I'll put it on eBay to get rid of it. Edit: If by chance any of you want it, PM me I'll give you the special WH price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,366 #12 Posted October 30, 2007 $75 seems reasonable to me. I seen them (rer's) here in this area with the asking price up to $300-$400 range. And for one like yours, easily $150. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,132 #13 Posted October 30, 2007 Must have been a reasonable price, it's gone already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,366 #14 Posted October 31, 2007 Congratulations for getting her sold. At least you made a little money on it. I guess someone wanted a bagger rider of fall leaf pick-up. Usually fall is a bad time to sell mowers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
