I haven't recently seen a new lead mower offered. That's why I omitted
the "lithium" specification. I make every effort to avoid buying any

This morning, I went ahead and ordered the mentioned Cub Cadet from
Tractor Supply, one of my preferred vendors. I avoid Home Depot. Just
over $3k with delivery and tax.
