Default 940 Offroading (...yeah right!!)







I went out to my uncles to grab something from my wagon and the grass is getting really long. I'm going to offer to mow his land on his riding lawn mower, which usually takes them 11 hours.

There are some holes in the grass, not sharp or deep enough to do damage, just like a little bit of a bumpy ride.

It'll never spool....

Out of interest why doesn't your uncle have a tractor and slasher? 11hours on a ride-on indicates to me a large area, large area justifies a large grass cutting machine. At a guess I would say that a medium tractor+slasher would at least halve the time needed.

That's NOT the proper stance for off-roading ...

I wondered the same thing. Might even get a few bales of hay out of it, too.

He has a friend down the road that has a tractor, but I'll have to see about using it.
