Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

This one has less than 2,000 hours on it

and the engine hasn't given me any problems

YET...

So far, for a forty year old machine, I can't say

that it has given me any more problems than

one would expect from normal wear and tear

There are several of these in the local junk-yards

and AC carrys parts...

I wish that it had Power Sterring and

was a new John Deere but it was $1200 and

I have put new tires, on it, but all kids

need shoes every now and then...

Yep, nothing wrong with it. It does what you want it to do and that's what counts.

when the problem was the stupid security chip under the steering column had wiggled its way out.
THAT happened to me last winter. Little wire connector under the steering column cover. Just replaced the battery, but it needed it anyway.
