I've had those gas powered augers before. Even had one that had a stand with a crank to lower the auger down so it could be easily done with one person. To me, they're just toys. If you run into the slightest hard spot, they won't go any further and you have to get your iron bar out and dig through it. If you put an auger on that will dig a good sized diameter, anything over 4 inches, they just can't handle it. IMHO, you can't beat a pto driven auger. For just a few holes at 2 1/2 feet deep, an old fashion post hole digger is just fine. There are some out there that'll go deeper, but they're a little hard to find.

I'm looking at getting one of those self-powered post hole augers
that Lowe's sells.
They sell one man and two man models. I remember hearing that one man
cannot easily hold an auger when it is really digging and then
'catches.' However, maybe the technology has changed.
I'd rather buy two much than two little and having to use two people
to bore is fine.
Before I drop the cash, I'd like to hear your opinions and experience.
Thanks
-Allan
