I just got back from Charlotte, North Carolina, where I attended official dealer training as part of launching ROPED — Robotic Outdoor Power Equipment Distributors. This wasn't just a product demo… it was a full behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to become a robotic mower dealer.

In this episode, I share my hands-on experience with the new Kress Voyager mower and the upcoming iPilot technology, plus insights into installation, backend systems, dealer expectations, and how manufacturers are preparing for the autonomous future of lawn care. I also talk about what surprised me, what excited me most, and what this means for contractors, property owners, and the industry as a whole.

If you're curious about robotic mowing, considering becoming a dealer, or want to stay ahead of where outdoor equipment is heading, this episode gives you a front-row seat to what's coming next.
