I tried out my new lawn mower, not a bad deal for $1,450 on a 20 hp rider Poulan hydrostatic. Noisy as heck but cuts real well and turns on a dime.

It`s not quite that bad Jack but between the noise and vibrations it`s not something I`d cut grass with for too long a stretch. Certainly nothing like the JD I had, I also have the Ford 800 tractor with the 6 ft mower for the big parts of our farm yard. It`s alot better where there`s more room.

I wouldn`t want to try this mower for more than even an hour at a time though I suppose it could be done....

That would be real good but I don`t think so.
We were going to head to the lake and take the PSD for a run but it`s been cloudy here with a few showers, more forecast for the afternoon.......

fom you need to excercise that thing a little more often... perhaps a good sale to me would suffice...

Yeah, the new 150 does look sharp. Carries and even sharper price tag. Damn new 150 cost as much as the 01 SD Dino did in 2000.

I drove a 2WD with the 4.6. Damn thing would fly. Could use a little more torgue but what can you expect out of a little block. But it will run well above 100 mph if you are brave and want to wait a bit for it to get past 40.

Where I was working yesterday next door there was an 09 F150 top of the line Super Cab, looked very sharp with all the chrome against the blk.

After driving that one, I just gotta drive one with the 5.4. It should burn the tires. The 4.6 tried, but just did not have enough ***. I know the 3.25 gear with 285 tires did not help much. The 4.6 needs 3.55 or 3.73 gears but that would kill its fuel and top end.
