   That is what I thought, it would be a lot easier on the body.  I am in   
   good health now but 73 years old.  Just do not seem to be able to keep   
   going for as long as I would like without resting.   
      
   I was looking to get one that had a reverse on it and all so the   
   reversing rotation of the tines.  My plot is not very big, just about 20   
   tomato plants and a few squash, cucumbers, and cantalopes.  I am not out   
   to raise a garden to save money, but just to mainly get fresh tomatoes.   
   The ones I get at stores around here is not worth carrying home.   
      
   Would be nice to get one that the wheels will turn without the tines   
   turning.  I was looking at one but the tines turned when the wheels   
   turned.  I could pull some pins and let the wheels roll without the   
   engine running.  Did not like that as the garden is down a hill from the   
   storage shed.
