NO!!!!!! what i HAVE to try is a 2011 RMK 800! YUMM!!!

You only have to mow 1000 to 1200 lawns this summer to get one. But of course that would put you in a tax bracket That may require you to do 1400-1600 lawns this summer. Sub it out to the rest of the Neighbor kids (get good Insurance in case one should mow a foot off or two), Buy them mowers and supply gas. Now you only need to do 2200 to 2400 lawns if splitting and paying cash. But do it right. Pay your taxes and take the deductions. You will then need to sell roughly 3200-3600 lawns to get that new sled. But you will have most the kids in town working for you at this time and they will want sleds, hence the cycle begins. Now that you are up to 30,000-40,000 lawns you may ask yourself, " will my town support this" or do you need to buy trucks? Best to go ask your Dad for a nice Christmas Present and avoid all this.

my lawn mower needs a new belt and has some transmission problems :( i was dethatching yesterday and belt was slipping terribly than when i would take off, something rattled right under me. don't know if i should fix it or just take it to riester nd schnell. have to take apart a buttload just to change the belt.

Hey Indy, I was going to offer to weld that heat exchanger for ya, until you put down the CAT. I do like the sticker though. But they should be peeing on a smoking turd, or the 700 your dumping all your time into. Love you man.

your running boards look like a cheese grater because you put a bunch of badly placed holes in them thats why.

Note: Indy's running boards were of his own concoction. I Did not supply him with a Dimple die kit. The dimple dies I sell come with complete instructions and made from quality materials to prevent such an outcome. He made his own version.

if i had $150, i'd spend it on something better than running boards! maybe clutch work or soo...and yes i spent about $3 total for my running boards.

Indy put the holes where he wanted them, he wants more foot traction. If you don't have the money to through around you have to improvise, I make all kinds of stuff that I could go out and buy but I also like to have little projects to keep busy. Indy is doing a great job, out doing something other than sitting on his arse and playing video games all day like too many kids are doing today. I'd say he's staying off of the computer to, but look at all of his posts lol.

amen! exactly what i did, i just put them where i needed traction, did not care about a pattern. and i haven't touched my xbox for over 3 months until this past spring break, i only bought it for the summer since there ain't nothing else to do when it's 90 degrees out! the computer.. well.. i'm on it a lot but i learn a ton on this site!

Don't jump to conclusions. At the rate Indy is going I wouldn't be surprised to see a wireless repeater on the sled! He's probably having trouble fining a pink one!
