$3,000 lawnmower in California

[Snagglefoot]

I saw this ad for a commercial gas powered lawn mower. Good deal? Or not.

It's a Honda commercial lawn mower. What do those retail for new?

I think it has more to do with the fact that you can't buy gas OPE in California anymore.

I’d offer $2650.

It’s rather funny how OHV is a marketing tool with small engines, but “antiquated “ with cars as if the more valves the better. Our next car will be OHV, 16 valve, and 6.2 liters

This. I'm planning a smuggling trip to Az very soon for ope and ammo.

I just flipped a gas wacker I bought at a yard sale.

According to my math you can buy 30 Yard Machines or 1 Honda commercial. As much as I'd like a commercial mower, a cheap Yard Machine would fit my needs.

Google search says MSRP is $1699 but can be found (not in CA) for $1499.

So what would a commercial honda push mower offer over a standard non-commercial honda push mower?

About $1200.00 last year.

There aren’t any anymore. Honda no longer makes lawnmowers. Let me correct myself. Honda is no longer making gas powered lawnmowers whether or not that means they will start turning out electric mowers. I don’t know.
They do expect inventory to last into possibly through 2024 but they stopped manufacturing them in 2023

The deck is twice as thick, the wheels and height adjusters are metal, not plastic, the engine is a industrial grade GXV series (forged crank, metal camshaft, cast-iron cylinder liner, oil pump, larger fuel tank, automotive style air filter), not residential GSV series. More details in the following video.

Because you needed a commercial mower designed to run 20 hours a week?

What stops people from buying gas OPE from across a state line like what happens with standard capacity magazines?
