if the money is there , when do you buy a new mower.
Is the old mowers running fine bit dented but work well ,when do you replace that mower..ive got some hondas over 6 years old and going great , bushrangers getting on with 3 years under the belt but all are working fine , replaced the wheels , catchers , the odd spring here and there but working ok.
Do you run it into the ground that it dont work any more or sell or trade for new ones every two years.....i always service mine like clockwork and have never got to a stage where they dont go...but like to get the most time if i can...
Some contractors i know replace every year and for they earn probably is ok but if you service well and treat with respect they go a long time..I have a honda thats 20 years now and still goes ( brother in law has it )
