I like the tread pattern on the GBC Powersports Mongrel - 26X10.00R12 10-Ply Rated ATV/UTV Tire - Samsclub.com tires and the fact they are 10 ply. Sam's club seems to be best price. Would have liked 27" tires, but beggars can't be chosey. Wife questioned why we need the 1100C cab, but now she...

I could heat my home in winter. Regarding a backhoe, a 5 ton or larger excavator can do some satisfying real work.

The last few years of my dad's life he got great assistance from the VA. When visiting the VA, my heart went out for all the wounded an damaged Vets who had their lives destroyed by the useless wars we have engaged. So sad to see, as this made me a real pacifist. My injuries are nothing.

Being out of commission and being dependent on others gives me a great appreciation of how life is so precious and the freedom, independence, and productivity being healthy allows. Sounds like you are on the mend also

Well I walked about 10' using a cane a few times today finally after more than 8 week since I messed myself up. I called my surgeon's office today and requested an order for PT. Both my wife and I will go together. She wants to get back on a horse, me an iron horse.

Clot is showing first signs of subsiding. Yeah! Darn, that thing hurts. Supposedly I can get back on two baby aspirin a day after 3 months. I also have a PFO in my heart. I had a stroke back in 2019, and two TIAs in 2022. Hopefully I am all fixed now. Stepson cutting firewood. Sure wish I...

Slept 21 hours of the last 24, getting a bit better each day now. This week I hope to take first steps without a walker. I still have 6 weeks to the trip. If anyone is feeling sorry for themselves, give this a watch. Braxton McCoy: Iraq, Opioids, and Defending US Land...

I am about 4 weeks behind in the healing process. After a second operation to stabilize my fibula by adding a second plate and a bunch more screws, I thought I was on the mend. A week later I was an ER intake with a severe blood clot running hip to ankle. Home again now and this is first day...

Credit unions may or may not give you a lower cost of ownership. I got a stupid low cash price on a 2018 Buick, so the Credit Union was the best way to finance. Investigate all options before signing.

After plus 6 weeks I am going batty laying around in the house. A lot of projects could have been completed had I not maimed myself. My poor wife is overwhelmed even with help from her adult children.

If you can swing it get a +5 tonne machine with some life left in it. Have it independently evaluated. I take it you will not be trailering it? Then go as large as you can get. Steel tracks are nice. Hydraulic thumb and blade also.

I had more hardware installed yesterday to stabilize the tibia yesterday. The bones were not healing properly and calf was wobbly and would have set so I would have been bowlegged. I heard a gruesome story at the hospital that involved a zero turn mower (ZTM). Mower fell into a gulley cutting...
