The post says you "you drive it" while you could say that for a push along it seems odd wording.

Before they had electric, that was the only type. It's not fancy.

True that they did exist in the past, however unless you've got an old one they're around twice the price of electric and more expensive to run. But, more than that, it points to you having enough garden to need petrol.

Definitely not more expensive here. We just had to replace ours on a budget and the affordable ones were all gas, over $150 less than the electric ones. Would've loved an electric one instead but it was a no go this time.

How odd, here an electric will be £100-£150 and petrol you're looking £250+

Ahh, that's fair. I didn't read that properly. It does say drive.
