I was just refuting this statement because I believe racing is a performance metric. Patrick

Actually, I remember in my youth, 60's - 70's, nothing could touch a Harley in the dirt mile. They were nearly always 1-2-3 at the finish. Patrick

Are you certain the power steering and hydraulics run off the same circuit? Patrick

Scotch Broom is the official poster child of invasive plants here in Oregon. Of course Himalayan Blackberries are way up on the list too, but it seems like everyone hates Scotch Broom. Patrick

My auto shop was in very rural and poor part of California. Many clients unable or unwilling to pay largish bills with cash, and illegal in California to surcharge for using credit card. Profit margins are super tight in auto repair business, so discounting for cash?, way out of the question...

There were a lot of home owner insurance companies that operated in the same business mode of way overcharge and invest that overage to make a killing that you'll never have to tap into. Oops, that business plan went up in smoke. The credit card companies have a much more lucrative system...

As you can see in my avatar, I have experience with large pine trees nobody wants. That's just a tip of the log deck, and there's more up the hill. These were trees that were killed in a forest fire, but died after the salvage logging was completed, which we got paid $0.00 but were lucky to...

My first car was '67 GTO! Paid $2300 for it back around '83. Patrick

Like this .... https://www.palletforks.com/skid-steers/landscaping-equipment/6-way-dozer-blade/SS6DOZER.html I wouldn't mount it to my Kioti, but neat idea for a skid steer. Patrick

My wife has the M12 Hatchet and loves it. I like it, a lot, but the ergonomics of the spring loaded trigger safety thing irritates my arthritic hand. Once you pull the trigger though, you can release the safety. I just purchased the M18 top handle 16" and it is awesome. I was cutting up some...

With a 12mm and 14mm I can almost totally disassemble my '92 Toyota pick up truck. Patrick

I received mine 2 weeks ago. Been raining mostly since, but was able to get it assembled, fluid filled, PTO shaft cut to size and did a dry test run. No leaks and the unit is very quiet. The packaging was amazing. I really like how the shoot folds onto itself for transport through the woods...

Being an Auto Shop Owner/Mechanic from Upper Lake, CA, trust me, I know cabin air filters. I also know smoke from forest fires and what it's like to lose your home and property to one. Our family car growing up, and the car I learned to drive in was a '70 Buick Estate Wagon with the '455'...
