I need help...Riding Lawnmower manual vs. Automatic (Hydrostatic)
#21
Well, let's see now... I'm gonna try an "alternative" approach to this question. Let's say you can pick up a decent hydrostatic or whatever lawn tractor with mower for about 3 grand (Canadian dollars, sorry). Now, for the sake of argument, let's say you can also pick up a decent push mower for maybe 300 bucks.
Now, after doing the math, that comes out to 2700 beans in the difference. See, even in Canada we can get that much right, although the whole French language thing is causing me to have.. issues.
But I digress... now, just to give ya some idea where I'm going with this, I'm going to assume you've got a neighbour that has a good looking daughter, let's say she's about 19 or 20, just to keep this clean.
So, if you were to pay her, say $25 to mow your lawn, while you "supervise" from your lawn lounger ($50)
under the shade of your new umbrella ($50), and within easy reach of the cooler ($20), full of cold beer ($20), by my estimates you should have enough left over to get your lawn mowed 102 times, let's call it 75 times if you give her a tip for wearing something "sassy" while she's mowing.
So, at the end of all this, one must ask the question, "Does one REALLY want a new lawn tractor??"

A couple of things...one we can easily transition this post into an ATV topic by simply saying this...have you seen the new John Deere ATV's?
Secondly, I did not know they had lawns in Canada, does it ever really unfreeze up that far. And also, I did not know that they had girls, let alone good looking ones up there either.
I am SOOOO kidding, but I can't help take a shot at you guys once in awhile in good fun for not supporting the war in Iraq and for booing us at Hockey games, I mean what's up with that?
