A long, long time ago, and in a galaxy far, far away, I was a car salesman. I actually had the manager tell me that the customer has no clue what they are looking for and/or need, and it was up to the salesman to pick the proper fit. I think, depending upon the dealer, lawn mower salesman adhere to this philosophy. Definately one reason why I won't set foot in two local Cub and also two local 'bota dealers.
