I was looking at this website that sells Honda Power Equipment, and I saw on the bottom it said VERSATOOL. Available from Spring 2013. That is cool! It is like the KombiSystem from Stihl or the Pro Attachment Series from Echo. I wonder if it will be available in the U.S.?

Talking about U.S. availability, I also saw some other pieces of Honda Power Equipment that they do not offer in the U.S., like blowers and hedge trimmers. I was wondering, why don't they sell them in the U.S.?

i saw the echo pro attachment at my local dealer. he let me try one out that he had in the shop since i go to school with his daughter and ive known the guy for years. it seems pretty nice and the attachments go on pretty easily. but i dont know why you cant buy the honda stuff in the states. i also want to know why they stopped making the lawn tractors too!

Yeah, I was wondering that, also. They look REALLY nice! I think it's because they are just priced too high, because I think I saw somewhere that they can be as much as a good ZTR! I mean just look at it....it looks REALLY nice!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

they do look like quality units. but really honda is a great all around company. i would like to test one out. and honda stuff is really expensive. i dont think i would spend that kind of money when i could buy a cub cadet for a cheaper price!

The tractor is only badged honda but made by an italian company called castel garden or now called ggp (global gardening products).
Lots of manufacturers use them including john deere.

Used at home on flat ground they do an alright job but used commercially then they fall to pieces in no time.

As for the blower and hedgetrimmer, the 4 stroke engine lets them down as unreliable.
This kind of equipment should only use 2 stroke.

Thanks, pugaltitude, for the info! I always wondered if 4-stoke power equipment (other than mowers) were better or worse than 2-cycle.

You would like it over here as there are a few companies like lings and all they sell is Honda.
Cars, ATV, bikes, outboards, generators, and garden equipment all in one place.
Honda have pushed it more and more.

Word is though that Honda maybe pulling out of lawn and garden due to car sales dropping and so concentrating on that.

Well I hope that doesn't happen! If it does my $800 Honda will be EVEN MORE expensive!
There are a few places here that sell ATVs, mowers, generators, etc., but they don't sell cars.
