RIght now, my new Greenworks electric mower. But I'm owning that don't know enough about donkeys to make an educated decision. And if it had to be a gas engine, I'd choose the donkey without even knowing what I'd be getting into.
Donkey, hands down! With all our ridges, ravines, and insanely rough terrain(not to mention very, very little grass to speak of), the donkey (which we're already considering, anyway!) would be safer, far more versatile, more environmentally friendly, could guard out other livestock, carry or pull me, and whatever else needs moving from point a to point b!
Donkey, for much the same reasons as Carla. Our terrain is so steep and bumpy that a lawn mower would get stuck or fall over pretty much immediately. Heck, we have trouble pushing the wheelbarrow in most places.
My number one choice would be to walk it, which happens regularly.
Second choice would be a donkey. I have two streams in my back woods, each with their own small but steep valleys. A donkey should be able to handle this without much difficulty.
Distant third choice is the riding mower. Actually, the riding mower should be much, much further down the list than third, but these are the limits of options. There is no way that a riding mower is getting to many parts of my property. And other parts it **MIGHT** be able to reach, but with extreme difficulty. It just isn’t a realistic option for transport over much of my property.
From time to time I have wanted to get a 4-wheeler in order to access parts of my woods more easy and maybe use it to pull fallen logs out. While I entertain the thoughts, so far I can’t justify the purchase.
