What if it Snows?

Question— do any of you know what the weight of a T800 hood is when you are opening it and some evil MF’er has taken the stops off it???
Answer— heavy enough to AH a 61 year old decrepit man out in the ding weeds and land on a pile of 8” Sch40 CS pipe
Lawn maintenance was extremely painful yesterday and required a lot of medication (buckskins) to get through— this morning is somewhat better

 

Sound like a decent buy. I was blessed to be able to look at a piece of machinery (or service truck), sort of equate its VISIBLE faults, with observations' from listening, driving/operating, calculating what ifs and buying some pieces at favorable pricing, Then touch up, tires/brakes/major leaks and putting it out as loaner/rental to work it. Get a little current experience/history, fix as arose, then offer for sale with a 30 day warranty. Never got burned, and made several "killings" over the years. Instincts usually lead you right, just don't second guess them to death...

 

You make it sound like it's a bad thing.

 

in done had to run off my “help” back the pickup and trailer out of way.
If i hadn’t been watching it’d have been jackknifed.
I finally got him stopped, and said “Where’s your trailer?”

“Dunno can’t see it, The mirrors are dirty.”
told him look in other mirror. almost in L position.

Mirror for reference, dirty but visible and not like lil mirrors.
Finally just said go, i’ll do that too.
Now back to spreading rock.
Afraid of him doing that too, he’d be lying on ground cause he can’t sit to do it or something.

Then on to air leak repair, The fun stuff.

 

HAPPY late BIRTHDAY Opus. And many many more. Thank You too for all you do. It is appreciated. Let the good times roll !
