I did not buy the Troy Bilt Horse tiller that was in "excellent" condition .

Stopped at the guys house checked it out while He finished mowing it didn't look bad the handle bar had angle iron welded to it to stop a kink from folding it into.
Noticed oil on one axle shaft, the AD said no leaks, when I shook it left and right the axle moved about inch.

So I let him show me how it worked He tilled 2 inches deep across some loose ground that had leaves on top and handed it over to me. If you let the wheels and tines touch the ground without touching the handle bars, it didn't have enough power to move ,at all, He says that's normal you just have to raise the handle bars up take some pressure of it.???

Now it may have been fixed with a new belt but no I didn't buy it .

I was also off on my directions by about 1 mile, some guys with a quad showed me the rest of the way there, I started thinking about Deliverance right before we got there. Their final words to me are "watch this guy" (more Deliverance music ) "all He has is junk"
