Well, my new tiller (a Christmas present from my in-laws) arrived yesterday. It's a Sears Craftsman 5.5 HP (ooohh! and extra 1.2 HP! More power!!) front-tine (you knew it would be) tiller. And this sounds kinda goofy, but it's a really pretty tiller! It's got a dark, almost forest green tine shield, with the black engine block sitting atop that, and red oil and gas caps - the color combination is that of one of my favorite plaid flannel shirts. I almost hate to get this thing dirty, but it's been 3 months since I tilled anything (my neighbor borrowed my old tiller and killed it), and I just got that itch to till.
