I hate even looking at that picture. I spent way too many hours behind one of those.

Yeah. Me too. I grew up south Louisiana cutting my Dad's 1 acre lawn & pasture probably 10 years or so with a Yazoo almost the same as pictured. Shared that duty with my 4 year younger brother and Dad.

Mower very easy to push. Could turn it on a dime. Very stable, even pushing it horizontally at about a 45 degree slope cutting huge, deep highway ditches in front of our house. Absolutely a dream to use push style lawnmower, even though the cut was probably only 24" or so.

Still, these days don't get one of these easy to push large rear wheel mowers like an old Yazoo dependable model unless you have maybe 1/4 acre or less to cut. IMO. Get a riding lawnmower sized for your acreage. To repeat, IMO. More fun with rider. Again, unless you are cutting a condo sized lawn.
