I have always loved to mow. Anytime I get to use power tools of some sort I am in heaven.
I have a murray with a 4 HP briggs and stratton and a 20" deck. I picked it up a month ago for $20. I just had to "fix" it. I changed the spark plug, air filter and then found the problem was the gasket between the tank and the carb. So $10 later i got a running lawn mower.
I don't mind it since I get paid $10 an hour doing it! I work on my uncle's farm and he has 2 mowers, a Hustler Z 60" deck, and a Hustler Super Z 72" deck. Those things can cut a LOT of grass, plus they go 15 mph!
I gotta say that when I used to cut grass for summer work (just neighbors and such) before running off to college, that was some of the best stress relief that I ever had. I miss it! I was using a Craftsman mower with a 22" blade. None of that fancy self-propulsion either... For some reason, I really enjoyed it.
