Got a John Deere 100 series something. Came with the house. Got some kind of weed whacker that's battery powered. Works well but the charge lasts way too long. Got an electric blower, pretty sure that's a B&D with a metal impeller. Electric B&D hedge clippers.

Metal rakes, plastic rake, compound lopper I can take a 2" limb with. Some saw on a stick with a rope powered lopper that will make your shoulders hurt for a damn week if you use it long enough to make a difference.

Miller Lite.

We mow about 3 acres, built the house 14 years ago, bought a Craftsman 54 inch garden tractor with the 26 hp Kohler v-twin motor.

It is a beast and does an amazing job, especially when my wife is behind the wheel.

I gave up the weed whacking to a contractor a couple years ago, took as long as the mowing did.

Grass will have to be mowed within the week with the expected warming weather.

You guys that brag about and enjoy doing yard work are nuts. You're either married or without better hobbies.

Mantis tiller

OP, I remember last year you mentioning your Mantis tiller and that it did a good job. Well I bought an Echo mini-tiller after that and it does great. I love it to weed around tomatoes or anything else. Does an excellent job of tilling up the soil extra fine before I plant corn or beans or whatever also.

Gotta be extra careful when using, those tines are like razor tips
