    27 ton troy bilt splitter. Supposed to only 2 years old. My only complaint so far is it has the gc consumer grade vertical shaft Honda. Beggers can't be choosers I guess lol. Besides at $500 I dare not complain, darn thing runs fantastic

    Good price !!! :yes:

    Some of those engines can last 30 years, some start spitting smoke after a year.
    Maybe you got one that will last a long time.
    Synthetic oil is good for small engines ;)

    Makes splitting wood much more funner :)
