So my mother in-law felt the need to upgrade her lawnmower and gave me her old one to take out to the cabin. It's a LawnBoy, two stroke, with aluminum deck and has been in continuous use by her since 1963. I decided to fire her up to make sure it worked before I hauled it out to the lake. Long story short, it never made it out to the lake. I'm now pushing a 44 year old lawnmower around the house and my #1 son is demoted to the Honda. What ever happened to the american manufacturing base that gave us products like this?
