My arthritis has gotten bad enough that I needed a new tiller. I bought a Troy Bilt horse (older model) to go with my smaller TB Bronco. The old front tine tiller just beat me up too bad. I got it new about 30 years ago - it has the good old L head Briggs 5 horse on it. It's never given me any trouble other than a carb kit about 7 years ago.
