What did you accomplish today?

So my lawn is getting out of control and the part never came in .....I called and was told they can't get it .....which was nice of them because I paid for it and have been waiting...SO, after I told them how I would like them to kiss my ass 47 different ways...I'm going to pick up my boy from school and go to oreilly's and see what I can rig to make it work....probably guna need to buy another new mower ((will see))

Il post results in a few hours.

Or less ...if I decide to go buy another one after 5 min of fucking around with mine ....
My son mowed the lawn last week after a month or so of "no mow" because of those perfectly-spaced rainstorms. When he got to mow, the lawn was so thick and tall that he spent 5 hours doing the notionally 1-hour job.
There is that brief spell when the grass grows so hard it'll stall a 5 1/2-hp mower if you don't cut a thin margin for a "triple pass" pattern ... and still he could not exceed about 1 mph.

Lol better him than me

It's not how fast you mow ,it's how well you mow fast.
 
I got a decent size walk behind. Has a Kawasaki motor on it. It won't die lol. I've never changed the oil or anything. First cut of the year it wouldn't start. I cleaned the plug and it started second pull. Reverse did break on it though a long time ago
I have been pleased with the John Deere. It is tough. It will cut knee high grass, weeds and saplings no problem.
 
Had one like this for 7 years and still runs like a top.
