I want this.
The Americans will probably already have one for their "yard".

Check this one out:

Normally sold to state and local governments for maintaining
sloping roadside areas.

I bought one of these for my 200 acre farm so I could mow the
areas that the hay crew refused to touch because they were so
steep. Advertised as safe to 45 degrees, but I had it to 55
degrees. In fact, I am convinced it is impossible to roll it,
unless you drop it off the edge of a cliff. Real fun, too.


What did that cost you? I guess about $20k?

More than a small car?!?


Mine cost $46,000 delivered to my farm in Tennessee and including
one day of demo and hands-on instruction. That was in 2006. Sold
the farm last year and sold the machine to another farmer in
Alabama for $15K. Of course the depreciation tax deductions for
the first eight years were very helpful. Most helpful was
maintaining the value of cleared land versus the value of
overgrown and wooded land. That paid off when I sold the farm.

The new owner of the place declined purchasing the machine. I
think he will regret that eventually.

Why are they so expensive? Think how much car you could buy for
$46,000.

How would a $46,000 car do at mowing those fields?

Amazing! You really have no idea why a mass manufactured thing might
be cheaper than a specialty something made for a very small group of
potential buyers?


A small group of gullible buyers.


They are people that can afford something that is worth more than that
