Why?

[WelshGas]

My new Hyundai lawnmower has 2 Cup holders. Why?
You need 2 hands to keep it going and engage drive so can't drink and drive.

About as much use as the cupholder in the Cali with the rear seat is pulled forward

Bottles of water? Don’t want to dehydrate when you mow

 

[ThomasHJ]

Turns out @WelshGas that there's a lot of people, just like you. You can meet them here.

 

[EddieEagle]

You never know when you’ll next pass a tap so best be prepared……

 

[Elmo3]

2 cans of cold beer, result!

Hyundai ! I wouldn't be seen cutting my lawn with one of those. Hayter for us, as used by the Queen. I'm backing Britain, made in Hertfordshire with love and attention, but no alas, no cup holders for your Pimm's.

Somehow I cannot see the Queen mowing with any make of mower, Tarrup or Qualcast!
I wager she has staff who will be followed around by a butler with drinks and sandwiches. There again……

At least its not a Chinese Company, and has a 3 Yr warranty.

Had you down as a ride-on type of guy WG, or is this just for the verge outside the main gates?

One is an ashtray, the other is for peanuts.

Well, she was changing her own tyres, so probably (would be) more than capable of mowing the loan. But it has to be a Rolls loan mower not Hyundai

Too many trees and ins and outs, besides access limited without restructuring garage or side patio which has a 6' drop to lawn. But now only takes 2 rather than 3 hrs to cut.

Looks suspiciously like a motorised zimmer frame WG. But good to be planning ahead for next phase of retirement.

Motor mowers do act as good Zimmer frames. I've just used our Hayter as such, while cutting our lawn just two weeks after having my second full knee replacement in seven months. Now getting into the top bed in the Cali is a different story.

Reminds me of a line in an inebriated Tom Waits song: "...using parking meters as walking sticks".

(It's more of a blues poem really, a deliciously dissolute and funny picture of American lowlife-nightlife, just found it after 30+ years since I last heard it: http://www.tomwaits.com/songs/song/238/Nighthawk_Postcards_From_Easystreet/)

That'll be the "comfort" dash then.

It's definitely a Lawnmower though, not a MPV.

Are you sure? The two cup holders suggest otherwise. Could it have been designed to carry at least one passenger? Surely cutting grass and transportation is multi purpose use?

 

[Tomato]

Hear hear! I’m backing Britain on this, Queen Liz God Bless ‘er, turn up the Elgar, fly a Spitfire over the white cliffs, we don’t want any of that foreign muck.

Like a VW….

The holders are for stowing the dogs tennis balls.

How do you train a dog to play tennis?

Or cut the grass !

Teaching them to play tennis is easy; its getting them to understand how tie-breaks work that’s the hard bit
