got me a new toy, troybilt horse [ also said red something or other, its dark out now] rototiller, barely used, tires still have the little nubs on them, needs carb cleaned, as its been sitting in a barn for a couple of years, machine looks new, also came with the chipper shredder unit that goes on the power unit, this was never used from new, not even a scratch, umm got it all for 300 bucks,

I paid $350 for a brand new one 10 years ago so looks like a bargin to me.

Hope it is not the Tecumseh engine those are known to be a joke from the get go. All in all you stole it since just the chipper cost twice what you payed for it when new if not 3 times that

its got a briggs 305cc i think, it says big red horse on it, its probably a few years old the guy who bought it new, was old then and finally passed away several years ago, his son who is in his 60's isnt inclined to run it, he's kind of like me, sort of stove up a little, it looks different than the one on the troybilt site so im assuming it probably is a pre mtd unit the thing is very well built no plastic on it that i can see

I own a Troy Built tiller that was my dads. My dad got it in 1972 or around then. It is on its 2nd engine and the transmission has been rebuilt a couple times but my dad would till 2 aches with it. Nice thing is with a troy once you have a garden spot you can till it with just one finger on the handle bar to guide it till you get to the end of the row then you have to work a bit. I have been known to just let go of the handle and let it go and it does what I need it to do just fine.
