does anyone know how many wheelbarrows are sold in the USA?
or can you tell me how to find out?

300 million population = say 150million? households.
20%? of households use wheelbarrows and buy
a new one once every ?5 years.

???? I have a fully functioning 39 year old wheelbarrow
purchased for 63/6p in 1964.
I can even tell you where I got it - if you want to see if they
have any left. ;-)

I doubt it! Pence were 'd' in 1964 :-)

You mean 3 pounds 3 shillings and 6 pence, I assume?

Right, you jolly well are. ;-)
It's a 'Victor' model from the 'Ironcrete' range, sold with an
unconditional guarantee against faulty workmanship.
