My Fourth Honda

SpoiledMan · 11-14-05, 01:19

I promised myself that the next 4 wheeler I got would be yet another Honda and I recently had to keep that promise. Though I've only taken it for a couple spins it's a little dusty and I haven't had a chance to detail it yet. Well, here are the pics......

Geez! I'm so jealous! What does that get? 60 lawns/gallon??

Seriously, nice mower though. I like lawnmowers. I don't really get to change my own oil that often(Mobil 1), so when I get the itch I change our mower's oil!

Nice mower Chris, once you hit VTEC you'll have your lawn cut in no time

This is my 3rd Honda! Oddly enough each of my Hondas have only had 2 wheels

I just saw this in this month's Red Rider, looks pretty cool....

HondaJet just made it's first public demonstration flight earlier this year. Honda has also formed an aviation subsidiary called Honda Aero Inc. Looks like they are getting into the corporate jet business. Betcha this heads the same way they started in the auto business, start small and eventually get bigger.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys!

It's truly a nice mower and I like it even though I wanted it's big brother with "cruise control" so that I didn't have to restart it every time I empty the bag. What I have found is that while I was emptying 2-3 times with my old mower I can now cut front and rear yards without having to empty the bag. That's probably because my old mower didn't mulch at all.

Bob, yeah, it should be interesting to see how things go for them in the corporate jet world as those things tend to be luxury laden. Luxury isn't really one of the company's strong points so we'll see. They do strive to be the best in their segments so I'm sure the competition will make it good for the "consumer."

So what process do you think your going to want to use when you detail it? lol Nice mower BTW my dad still has his thats probably 20 years old and still running strong, not sure of the brand though.

You know I'm thinking a couple coats of Z5 and then 2 coats of Z2 Pro.

Having had this mower for a few months now it's truly a joy to use. The few hours that I put on it per month will allow it to last a very long time. It starts on the first pull every time and I don't smell like gas when I'm done cutting. It also attracts lots of dust. I'm going to see if FK 425 will reduce that.

My brother has 3 commercial Honda mowers. Only ones he buys for his lawn care business.

My neighbor is a gardener and told me that if I had come back with anything other than the Honda, he would have hid it from me.

Sure, but what are you going to dress the wheel wells with?
