    I’m ignorant on the models, but that looks about like the Ol Johnny Popper that liked to took my arm off crank’n it that my buddy’s grandpa bought brand new

    I ate duck and chicken eggs growing up, and always figured an egg is an egg, but I found out that I hate guinea eggs. Fried, hard boiled, even tried using them in a mix and baking. All were horrible.

    11' 8" I believe Jim. More will stick out on the side with the corner bit back. I can measure in the morning for sure, but it's under twelve.

    They’re telling me it’s like 12’-6” angled, seems a little excessive to me. I’ll find out tomorrow for sure, still over an hour away so I just camped out here at the TA for tonight.

    Suppose to be in a mine in Virginia, it’s off the beaten path for sure….

    A VPAT, or angle blade that you pull the arms on the C frame to angle? I think a VPAT is the same on a T as an R. I know ours will get under 12' angled because our permit requires a pilot car for over 12' on everything but the interstate.

    I ask my customer but he wasn’t 100% on the blade. He just bought it off the internet. Being in a mine I’m wondering if it has some wide landfill style blade.

    Yea if it’s 12’-1” to 14’ I’ll need 2 escorts in Virginia. 1 in front and 1 in the rear on 2 lane roads. It’s up in a holler from what I’m seeing….

    Yes Sir it’s a pop’n Johnny 2 cylinder. This one is electric start which is a plus.

    Those hand crank style where you actually spin the flywheel to start it can be challenging lol. They are kinda like the older Harley’s, each had its own combination to get it fired up….
