I got my Troy Bilt Horse off of Craigslist. Four Hundred bucks and in beautiful condition (Except for the crease in the gas tank from the colision twenty years ago (That made him put the thing away for twenty years). When I screwed it up on opening day of tilling, my best hope was five weeks out. But I downloaded the manual off the web for twenty bucks and destroyed my shoulder getting the thing apart, and now, I'm the expert). They are always on Craigslist for cheap, and they are simple enough that a caveman, like me, can use them. But, you can till a good thing to death! Tillers can be a little bit dangerous. I have a scar from a tine that caught me, just from walking backward over a stump with it. And, it wasn't even running.
