Toro sells lots of residential and agricultural irrigation. Also golf course equipment.

I think you may have made up your fun fact about AZ Toro sales.
I agree they may not sell many snow blowers or small lawn mowers in AZ.

A guy I know here in town makes a good living off of it. He has about 20 cars and SUVs. It's all he does, and it keeps him busy. That has me thinking...
