Re: (ET) downsizing
Technology has finally caught up to the Elec-Trak, at least for cutting
grass. There are many better options for that now. I picked up a used
Ryobi Electric Zero turn and its light years ahead for the purpose of
cutting grass.
Nothing beats an Elec-Trak for all around versatility. I will hold on to
mine for snow removal and everything else it can do. But I'm getting rid
of all my extra parts as I don't see myself restoring another one.
