I wish.
you've never heard them called that?
I don't think so but man I love that thing, makes fall much easier around these parts.
i have a handheld one, but i typically just suck my leaves up w/ my tractor.
Just snagged a 2021 DPX2 Factory to replace my 2013 Float CTD.
Probably about April before I get to test it out

Nope."Tractor"
Suburbanites and "tractors" give me the giggles, as do riding lawn mowers on half acre lots."Tractor"
Does it have double digit horse power?
No idea but it's fuel injected because I decided I didn't wanna have to fuck around with another tractor carburetor.
My last tractor was a janky old craftsman POS I inherited from my FIL when that asshole shot the bed.
There is absolutely nothing wrong w/ having a massively overkill tool to do a job quickly.
Please return your massively overkill tool and pick the right tool for the job. You'll get stronger as a bonus.
Cuts my mowing time in more than half, and I don't risk heat exhaustion when I have to mow in 100°+ heat.
This mowing thing sounds a bit like the kid thing you all talk about.
Glad to have abstained from both.

Ha! Have reduced my lawn by about 1/4 every year for the last two years. The yard looks amazing as a result and the biodiversity has increased dramatically. It's buzzing with bees and all manner of flying insects all year. This year we even had grasshoppers! Looking forward to doing another 1/4 next year! And maybe the year after, I'll be able to retire my mechanical push mower.
Looks flexy
Well they were out of rootbeer so I didn't have a better option.
It's a gnar gravel bike obviously.Why does a road bike have iscg tabs?
Its called a quiver killer!Why does a road bike have iscg tabs?
The kind which are yellow, mean, and sting multiple times? I find those many times a summer myself. Should we re-name this thread the dependable lawn care thread?
no, just regular bumble bees. i was pulling compost for my garden and unearthed them, i was lucky i didn't get lit up as a few dozen appeared in a timespan of maybe 5 seconds. there was a good sized queen, so i let them bee.

Boostin‘, how are all of your maladies?
Healed?
Healed?
Healed as its gonna get! My hand is pretty good these days. Now I need time to ride! I've got to clean out the garage before we move so I have been listing crap on ebay in the hope I can raise funds for this bike and get rid of stuff so there's less to move.
Moving? Didn't you just buy a house?
Bought a house that needed re-plumbing and new hvac. We just finished painting it. Been working on it all fall.
It's going to be a good time. It was homeowner built and plumbed. He was better with a hammer than he was with a solder rod.Well then enjoy the new boostin-compound.
