Well, garden tractor actually. Lawn tractors are for stereotypical urban dwellers. Garden tractors are for people with big lawns or people with small lawns who like overkill, like me. It’s barely adequate for the 1/4 acre lawn, but I get by. I bought it at my grandparents estate auction a couple weeks ago. I paid too much for it, but I’ve had my eye on it since 1989.
Fine piece of machinery there. Clean it up a bit though and maybe put some HID’s in it.
Fuckin detail it before ya snap a pic, slob.
more HP then your average Honda
Thats pretty sweet. Good sized machine. Paint her up
I hope when you mow your shirt has no sleeves, and only cans of beer are allowed.
no pics of you mowing with can of genny and lit cigarette, no care.
Awesome! I had an old old wheel horse that was great. So great that I bought it’s successor Toro Wheel Horse when I decided to upgrade.
Nice choice, I have the newer model of that. With the snowblower attachment on it’s a fucking beast through the snow!

To keep the kids and stepkids from fighting they just had an auction and sold everything. If you wanted anything you had to buy it.
I remember my parents had the exact some one, pretty badass lawn-tractor. Keep an eye on the drive belt though, quite easy to wear prematurely and shred itself on a metal safety tab if it does get loose. The gearing was so absurdly low on it though haha.

yup, low range is SUPER low on it. it’s actually great for plowing through 2 feet of snow though.
