    Funny.

    I almost bought a Ferris mower, which is red (although a bit darker) and has 4 wheel independent suspension.

    Deere's SUCK wanna buy mine it has 32 hours on it, total POS tube is always clogged and I have to take it apart to clean it mid-cut. I have to clear the suction tube to the bagger four times or more each mowing, this for a $2000+ mower, my friends Craftsman was $1200 and he has NEVER had his clog EVER, even with soaking wet grass, i do not even consider cutting until I've had two dry days given my mower's issues, makes the Ferrari look like Honda!

    I cut my own yard with my green Sears Craftsman tractor. However, I've put two Scuderia Ferrari shields on the sides. Doesn't look good at all!

    I cut my own and make my lawn look like an artist artwork!! I take pride in my lawn baby. Best in the neighborhood. And that includes the professionaly jobs done by those on the side and behind me!!! Suckers!!!

    Probably a bold statement to make on a Ferrari board where the percentage of guys who don't cut their own is higher than most other boards but........

    There is something pathetic about a man who doesn't mow his own lawn. That's the kind of guy who probably needs to go down to the local adult store and buy a vibrating little friend to help him with the wife!!!

    I gave up mowing the lawn about 3 months before getting the Ferrari. I also have a Deere for sale, but it is a $5600 GT225. It works really well, although I only used it for about a year. The yard looks much better now that a pro is doing it. I did not do the weedeater / blower / edger every week like the new guy does. A little over two acres is too much to keep up with on my schedule. For $155/ month I'll keep the yard guy, thanks. Mucho respect for those that can keep their yards up themselves.

    I have just over an acre and a crew of four guys cut, trim and blow clippings off the driveway, walks and patios in 30-45 minutes for $40. It would take me a minimum of 2 hours to do that myself. My time, especially free time on the weekends, is worth much more than $20/hour to me. It also is 2 fewer hours with the vibrating little friend for the little woman!

    I mow my rather large lawn with a red MTD. REAL MEN use push mowers! Wussy, self propelled mowers won't do.

    Touche'!!!

    :)

    Nice. I just like doing it. To me, it is a nice getaway from the daily grind. Give me a weekend where I can mow the lawn, blow the clippings, bag em, and get to the compost site and then get home in time to clean more of the underside of my car before the Husker game and I am one relaxed guy!!!

    Yes I do mow my own lawn. I prefer the Hustler Fastrak to the mower listed.
