HEY.... Whats the good word??, Have you set a new date to visit Power-Trac
( Tazewell )?. I noticed you missed your first Date!!!. I was waiting for my surprise Tazewell video's. I viewed a few video's on your You-Tube page of you test driving equipment, but I did not see any video's of you operating any of the equipment you claim your dad owns....What's up with that??? I'd hate to think you were yanking all our chains !!! I also noticed you edited your profile on your You-Tube home page by deleting any and all mention of Power-Trac equipment !! What's up with that ??

HELLO PEOPLE!! I am back! And better than ever! Or maybe I'm lamer than ever!
I haven't really taped anything because of either of the following reasons:
1. I forget my camera (stupid excuse but true)
2. I so busy I don't even think about (also true)
3. Most of the time both me and my dad are working so there not really anyone who can tape one of us. But that will hopefully change! I'm in the process of making a mount so I can put my camera on my Hard Hat! (thanks to Al Roy for the ideas and instructions )
That way you'll be to see what I was seeing! ISN'T THAT COOL??!!?

Going to PT I've kinda forgotten about. At the moment were looking at some other equipment. Also looking for a PT we can go see around here.

And why have I deleted any metion of PT equipment on my YouTube?!?
Because PT has deleted any metion of me on their YouTube!
Just funing!
I really don't know

You would be wise to take your time and see one in operation locally and get the views of the owner/operator rather than taking a trip all the way to Tazewell, first. Seeing one locally will either turn you off to the thought of buying one or make you run to the factory with open wallet.

Kids!

Thats my plan
Not being able to see one has really made me lose almost all interest in them
BUT! I want to and will hopefully change that!

Kids!

I know right.
Interesting bunch are they? :laugh:

ToolcatWonka5610,

I think I know your game.

I think you are just playing around here. And why do you think we want to see Toolcat pictures and comments in this forum. You do know there is an ignore list, right.

You know what? You might have more fun posting over in the Bobcat forum since you have OTD. You might can relate to them better, or the John Deere forum, since your dad has one.

You guys must not use that Dixie Chopper very much, 1000 hr over 9 years is about 111.1 per year. I own 4 of them, and I would put those hours on mine in 16 days. Did you ever do any maintenance on them? I used them for 20 years, so you can't BS me a whole lot.

JJ, didn't get your morning coffee?

Maybe we all did too good a job of talking Wonka out of the PT idea? Or maybe his dad has both feet on the ground and is leary of "large" capital purchases in these uncertain times.

 

[J_J]

No , I had a cup real early, but really don't need it to recognize certain things. All those things just don't add up. I suppose I could do some background and license checks, and perhaps a credit report.

O.K. Leave the kid go. No one has any way of proving the kid is lying, so just take his word for it that he's on the up and up and let it go.

I agree. When in doubt give the benefit of the doubt.

Thanks Bob, Moss.
I know it sounds weird, a 14 yr old Landscaper. For one its a family owned Business. In fact, on Lawnsite, theres a bunch of guys my age that work with equipment and all that good stuff. Junior M is the best known on there.
If I get my Camera back I'll try to get some pics of our equipment and all that good stuff. If we get another job soon I'll also try my best to provide pictures and possibly video.

 

[MossRoad]

We see lots of kids your age and younger operating large machinery in agriculture around here. Just not in other business like contracting and such. That's why it sounds odd.

Anywho... we all like pictures! So shoot some when you get a chance.

Its not really construction, our main and almost all of our work is Landscaping. Yard maintainence, Yard perparation and installation, Tree services, Mowing, Snow Removal, Hardscaping, pretty much anything that has to do with Yard maintainence. At the most our biggest industrial work is small Demolition jobs like busting up driveways, house foundations, stuff like that. Nothing big and industrial Too much for me.

This IS JUST AN ONLINE FORUM!!

JJ-Why so hostile?

In 1967 at less than 16 hears of age, I was (legally, w/supervision) repairing brakes and exhaust systems at a Firestone store in Sunbury, PA.

Also legally running hay balers and corn pickers. Many countries to which I travel have people of this age learning to actually do things.

The Power-Trac Forum is a much healthier place for social interaction with adults than nearly any of the ones usually frequented by 14 yr. olds.

Mark H.

 

[Marks481]

yeah, remember we are a "family friendly" forum, so kids will have to go elsewhere to pick up expletives and the like.

You might wonder why Willie changed the hours on the Dixie Chopper from 1000 hrs to 3002 hrs on TBN, and on Youtube, it listed 2112 hrs, Mistake, maybe, sure. Ask him if his dad owns the John Deere or does his dads friend own it.

Wether Willie is the real thing or not really doesn't matter. I don't see what he said or did, other than use up some of our knowledge,that would call for us coming down on him like a ton of bricks. You live, you learn. His cred is used up, it will be harder for us to give him a straight answer but I think I learned some things from his questions.

As for whats real on the net... Man, who knows... I could tell you that I was supposed to work with MJ producing a project for him (true) but the ******* died on me (semi-true, my boss blew the deal), or that I said Hi to Julia Roberts yesterday (true, and she still is hot) or that I drive a 1993 F-150 (champaign in color) that no one thinks is cool in LA (true) and that I am eternally thankful I made mortgage this month due to the wife taking a crappy low budget movie (true). Unbelieveable as it may all seem, some things are true, just subject to interpretation.

So, I say lets kill this thread, erase it all. Seems to make me feel we PT Owners kinda look bad for this thread....
