My Lawn Mower Annoys Me

Lowe’s sold a “hybrid” mower/atv. It was absolute garbage. I would love a robot mower though but they’re incredibly expensive for the amount of land they’ll cover. Quite frankly it could just low a little every day and I’d be happy.

Waltzing indeed! Did you have some nice 3/4 time signature music for it to waltz to? :) I only wondered, as you seemed really quite surprised by it being there. In the UK, the vast majority of spiders are essentially harmless, so I'd only ever evict them rather than squishing them.

Brown recluses are indeed exceedingly common here. Nasty little buggers. The one that distracted me in the video was just a wolf spider though. It was enormous and brazenly waltzing across the shop

I probably should not have Googled that. Are they quite common over there? Robert sounded a little surprised when he spotted it, but for all I know they might be everywhere?

David

Venomous. if it were poisonous you'd have to eat it to die and thats much worse in my opinion.

Brown recluse, iirc, which are exceedingly a) large b) poisonous

100% with you on electric mowers, I'll never get another gas mower so long as I can help it.

I feel the need to ask about the spider. Do you have nasty ones where you live? Need to kill them when you spot them? What was the one that distracted you?

David

I was more bored with the fact that your lawnmower sucks than I probably should have. Also got angry-ish at you cutting dry grass.

Super duty? The marketing is strong with this. Doesn't look a patch on the old Ferris/Scag machines I used to maintain.

As a Brit with a tiny lawn I've always been jealous of these big lawn mowers but now I'm reconsidering. I think you should just tow some gang cylinder mowers behind the Trabant or Reliant, sounds like much more fun.

I think you can get fluids designed for this purpose. When my buddy bought his tractor they just called it "beat juice." I'm not sure if it is literally beat juice or if that is some sort of trade name.

If not water, how about some light oil?

The other problem with a tractor style lawn mower is that you don't feel like riding a tank, and I believe the tank steering really adds a lot to the lawn mowing experience.

if the oil drain is not convenient, why dont you just use an oil suck machine? I use it most years, and only 3-4 years I open the drain plug. it gets most of the

Y'know, that's a fairly common thing on tractors. I'd do it, but I'd worry about rust

This is a strange comment about a strange video: Would it be possible to fill any of the tires with any water?

Thomas & Robert Rhode

The video made me smile. What more can I ask. Plus, I like your editing.

It's hard to make my husband laugh but the dance moves but made him lose it 😊

I have the same mower but with the Kohler. The oil drain is on the other side, but it still sucks. I have to remove the cover and the starter in order to reach the drain bolt. Oil always gets everywhere and I just have to hose it all down. Never had an issue with the drive belts though.
