We had a Toro mower that dad bought in the mid 1960s back before the safety folks took over. I could put the mower into drive, and off it went, and I could walk along the side of it and just have to be there to make it turn. My brother had full on fist fights over whose turn it was to use the mower. Mom finally made up a calendar so I did not get beat up by my 2.5 year older brother. That mower ran most days it was not raining from the time school got out until dark. It was really worn out so dad gave it to my brother and dad bought a new mower when he had to mow his own yard. My brother said it finally broke the crankshaft at the blade after whacking something. It was a workhorse.
