ive never owned a riding mower before,

but i knew what i was in the market for, a SNAPPER.............

i put the word out to a lot of friends, and one found me a good deal on a SNAPPER.

i have a POULAN self propelled push mower, no complaints with that beast, but i had to upgrade, for my property size,

for 250$ i damn near stole it,....... it needs a belt and a selinoid,..........but runs like a champ.

Love the mower chicken. I had to laugh when I saw the pictures it reminded me of a few years back when we raced one in a 12 hour mower race. Never again !!! I could hardly walk for a week afterwards. Anyway it wont take too long chop chop the lawn or Tobacco plants now.

Yeah the whole "Second Winter" thing is getting old Don, this time last year I had mowed my lawn 1 time and had my AC in the window. I've got a small "Garden Tractor" that has a snow blade attached, it comes in handy sometimes.

Haha yeah I know what you mean. It's a good 35*F here right now, but I can tell it's a spring sun. Some stuff has started to come out of the ground some tulips and a few trees are bulging at the branches. Not too much longer and we all get to do some yard work ;).

And good lookin mower, nice condition. Is that a single or dual cylinder? If it's a single, or has decent hours on it remember to do frequent oil changes and get GOOD spark plugs, cheepos seem to gum up quicker than hell

Dont put the Ethanol in it.

I heard that. Damn lawn mower repairman gladly rebuilt my carb every spring until my logger cousin told me about ethanol. Fires up every spring now. I also got a new lawn mower man.
