That's funny, I go to the gas station once a year when summer starts for lawn mower gas. I'm sure that will be my first trip to a gas station with the lighting and I will get this picture.
Yeah, I don’t even do that anymore…I’ve switched to a Ego lawn mower and trimming tools, so only my wife’s Accord is the last petro-powered item we have…….

Been debating switching to a electric mower. Our yard is small so the newer ones are perfect for us. I just hate to throw (or give) away a perfectly good gas mower. Maybe if I knew someone who was tight on cash and needed one.

I was amazed at the power achieved and maintained (~1 hour runtime) by these next generation of electric yard tools….and so quiet 🤫. Sorta like driving a Lightning😎

I would have had one if I thought it would cut my really thick Kentucky blue grass. I bought and pieced together an old King O Lawn reel mower that cuts threw it like butter, and I'm one to go 9 days between cuts. I admit I haven't looked into them lately though, are the ready to keep bluegrass cut low?

Today, i did the poor man's rim upgrade. Rust-Oleum gloss black vinyl wrap spray. Made stock Pro rims look much better.

I like this...A LOT! Now you need some Black Lug Nuts.

I'm going to do this to my Pro too.

Was the prep a pain in the butt?

Thanks. I was gonna spray the lugs but decided I'll just order black ones instead. Not expecting it to last more than a season or so, but i had to try it.

Prep was easy. Took about five min per tire. I wiped with wet rag, then dry one. Taped off lugs, ford cap and valve stem. Stuffed a bunch of plastic bags to block rotor/caliper. 4 THIN coats, then 2 heavier coats, all in 5 minute incriments. Went thru 2.5 cans for all four tires.

Why'd you go with Xtreme for FL (right?)? Durability? Using them to launch people for cheerleading stunts on occasion?

I'm on the fence between Powerstep and Xtreme since I'm not in a cold weather climate.
