Push mower?????
Lmao
Anything around here that could be "push mowed" gets blasted with 60psi of roundup. Fugga bunch o push mowing.
I agree. A Hustler zero turn does the mowing. The push mower gets fired up a couple times a year to go under the apple tree when it's loaded up and the branches are hanging. I am religiously apposed to mowing grass, unless it is going into a haystack. But Momma insists that we have this 3000 sq foot patch of grass around the house, and she gets all bent out of shape when she finds cow paddies on it. So hell, I break out the push mower once in a while.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

So we add Roundup to the list? I've got this Lilac tree in recovery after the wife "sprayed the weeds" nearby some 10 years ago....'' Eventually I hope it will look good again....

Yes, badgeloader! Mauser rifles. Take a licking and keep on ticking.
I have one that is 122 years old and works like a champ.

Right! I keep telling the wife if God wanted us to have grass, he would not have given us tundra. She knows better than God of course.... I'm gonna add the old fly-wheel John Deere tractor. I loved driving that thing- which likely dates me, as well as it...

Stihl's - well your luck has been better than mine. I've had 3 POS Stihls in a row, never again.
Along those lines, I also once bought a self propelled Husquavarna mower- touted on internet at the time as one of the best. Rather expensive. Got it home, it wouldn't start. Mis-built carb. Over the next 3 years I spent more in repairs for various things than I did original purchase price. Took it to the dump and heaved it!!! Another never again....
That cheap-azz Craftsman from 10 years ago needs a blade sharpening, however...

Agreed. If I can't mow it with the zero turn, it gets a good dose of Makaze and Sabre. That's Roundup and 2-4-D. Wife hates me using it, and I have on occasion got some flowers and plants with it, but I tell her that's just the cost of doing business. I have not owned a push mower in 30 years. I have 2 weedeaters, that might get used once a year, maybe.

2000 era Chevy trucks and the 5.3.
^^^^this^^^^ I've got 3 and between them almost a million miles. 👍 Yours is just getting broken in. 😉 Got one, a 2000 Silverado 4wd with the 327, soon to be at 1/4 million mile mark. I am gonna keep it until it turns into licorice.

^^^^this^^^^ Dad has the 2000 with 290,000 and I have the 1999, 4wd, with 240,000. I think I'll keep Dad's forever. It is the extended cab (3rd door) and long wheel base. Still rides like a caddie. Real work trucks at an affordable price are becoming obsolete.

All you need is one sheep to eat your grass. After it gets the grass eat down, you could pimp it out to the local Muzzies.
