I don't recall having a reel mower in the bed of my truck Friday. Had saws and trimmers in the bed and a push mower in the trailer. I might be wrong tho lol I can't keep track of everything I have.

Facts

I have a cub cadet trimmer on wheels I bought new 4 years ago. Love them things.
Truck, trailer... potato, potato.

Mower will have to wait
View attachment 459939
I couldn't pass this up 03 6.0 60k miles
3/4 ton with the original steel wheels extra with it.
500.00 niece and her husband needed vacation money
They've owned this 5 year's
Nothing mechanical wrong with it
He lost the lower front bumper in ditch during a snow storm
And dented the bed with a horse trailer.
Might put asplundh tree service on the side of it.
My 04 6.slow has done everything I’ve needed it to do. Great motors if you don’t tow a lot of heavy weight. Biggest repair I’ve had is the transfer case pump rub issue. I do need to put rear axle seals in soon.

Morning slackers. I was on the road most of the day yesterday getting seed and parts. Came back to one of our tractors sitting in the shop! Apparently the drawbar support on the 4455 worked loose and decided to leave the chat somewhere on the WMA. Got the part ordered and they should be in today. I did get to see ol’ @Mastermind and pick up our 661 he worked on. Good to see you all yesterday. I’ve got to haul our sprayer to a fab shop and see if he can rework these piss poor hinges the factory designed. They’ve cracked several times and the dealer said I’m on my own now. The guy I’m using has done some great work for us so I’m hoping he has some ideas that will work. Hopefully the parts will be in by then and we can get back to disking with two tractors. We can’t catch a break this year! Have a good one.

The one issued to me when I worked at UT that was meticulously maintained spun the cam bearings with only 62K miles on it. 😆

Was killed in a car wreck so of course that was me in their thoughts.
No calls or nothing no wreathes or condolences.

It can't possibly be worse than the brand new Chevy I tried
I think everything they make now is junk, it almost seems like they're try to set a recall record.
I think one of the MN Dan’s kids just got the 5 door hatch version. I had a couple of them and only had to replace one clutch under warranty, the first met it’s end in a pole…
It's a 10 with 93000 and no rust and nothing leaking. It needs some motor mounts and the C shift solenoid according to the codes.
Dude was a military transfer from Kansas lol and wanted something more snow worthy. My kid got it for 1500.

My '18 Accord and '20 Camry were absolutely flawless for nearly 200k total. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Honda or Toyota if I needed a *s-wordbox.

So at this rate this means only about 12k of new vehicles purchases to go?

One of the funnest jobs I ever had
In the early 90s
Ed my boss at his flooring company.
Bought a old 70s dodge b200 maxi van that used to be a church van I think it said
Chelyan babtist church on the side.
He wanted it cleaned up so we could heat gun the sticker's off
It still had all the seats in it
So I loaded everybody in the shop up and drove to big bertha's all nude car wash
15.00 a each to go through it.
We were greeted with 5 middle aged women
Rubbing their saggy titties all over our rusty
Van.
We got ripped off they didn't even do a half decent job cleaning at the so called car wash
I had to wash it down again at the shop to get the sticker's off.

If you take the Corvette out of the equation, the best vehicle GM is offering right now is the Chinese assembled Buick Envision. Kind of sad if you really think about it.
1/2 ton trucks really slipped not long after the shift to Mexico.
I'd follow this up with the Enclave/Traverse/Acadia.
The 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are on par with the Mopar and blue oval offerings.
The rest is iffy...

I see them at their worst though. Nobody takes a perfectly running vehicle in.

I know the Japanese cars never have failures according to the internet, but they are having many of the same issues plaguing the other manufacturers right now. Śhìt products.

Yeah it seems everyone is trying to go cheap as possible these days. I just look for the ones with the easiest problems to fix and widest parts available. It ain't like any of them sponsor me to rep them lol.
Look up the show " Faster with Finnegan".
They built an off road Miata. It looked like a lot of fun to thrash on.
I'll have to check that out.
