    good concept for Condo dwellers.

    from the FAQa section: The included 24-Volt 4.0Ah batteries deliver up to 35 minutes of runtime on a single charge. With the included quick charge docking station, the recharge time for the included batteries is just under 2 hours.

    Doubt I could clear my 400 foot of driveway in a half hour

    Which is why the 28" version of this is on order to use on the tiller next year.

    DOT Physical is available. Open till 8:00 pm. I have till midnight to self certify. I’m very anxious, my BP will surely be high. Don’t need any BS this year.

    For those in that East LA suburban area known as Phoenix metro, it may be a "better" choice.
    Especially considering this but of trivia:
    History of Snow in Phoenix

    Sounds like it will turn into an expensive wall ornament.........

    My personal circumstances are different. I live in the PNW and tend to:
    a) enjoy colouring outside the lines a bunch.
    b) redraw my personal lines to my preference
    c) am not a good team player.............

    First don’t worry about it and try this breathing technique:
    Before getting your BP checked sit and deep slow breath 4 to 6 count inhale hold for 4 to 6 count exhale 4 to 6 count pause 4 to 6 count repeat for about 4 minutes.
    then go take the BP test repeat the breathing again then let them test it. I told the girl what I was going before testing and she helped out.

    this is how I passed my CDL DOT physical BP test and got my 1 year card from an MD. I’m a fat ### with high BP and Sleep Apnea with a CPAP machine.

    Should that be Sleep Apnea and use a CPAP?

    Cause I initially read that as Sleep Apnea even while using a CPAP..... :eek:

    I would have read it as the part of the sentence that said “with a CPAP machine.” and realize that was a prepositional phrase followed by the previous one and understood it as such. I guess I could’ve followed up between those two prepositional phrases with a comma but that would’ve created a situation where it would’ve been a comma splice.

    AnyWho, I’m glad you realized that I don’t have sleep apnea while I’m using my CPAP machine because that would be some serious rhinoceros sleep.
