My New Honda is Awsome!
I just picked up a new Honda HRR 216 PDA Push Mower that has put me in the "Zen Zone" after one use.
![]() It started on the first pull right out of the box, smacks of quality design, is quiet, has a great exhaust note, and feels like a Masamoto Sushi Knife to the hand compared to the old Meat Cleaver it replaced. Oh, yes, it mulched the front yard and bagged the back yard better than the Toro or Scotts mowers it replaced. Damn, life is good when one can get excited about a new lawn mower. Mike |

In 1983, right when honda power equipment started to be sold here in the us, my dad bought a new honda lawn mower. I mowed lawns for extra cash back then ( 13 years old). I used the hell out of this mower. I still have it today, it still starts first pull, and runs like a clock. Not a spot of rust on the deck. The only things I have ever had to replace have been a couple of cables, spark plugs, air filters, and oil, and oh, I forgot, I backed into the handle once, and cracked it . This thing is indestructible. It is actually starting to blow some blue smoke though. That is nearly 27 years of continuous use, and has never once let us down.

This is Pelican. You need an M&K muffler for it, or you're not cool.
