've had the mower for a month now and I've only used it once. MrsWD wanted to try it. She was terrified of it at first, but now I can't get her off of it. She still won't get near the edge of the ravine and I do the close-in trimming, but she does all the rest of the mowing.

^^^^ You have learned well young grasshopper :)

My wife was the same with the log splitter. She wants to be the official operator. Doesn't bother me a bit and she gets good exercise.

Yeah...my dad will operate a lever while his "hired help" lifts logs twice that size too!

Just one problem imo....

None of you guyz are in crowbob's league unless there's a sammich already made for ya though :)

She operates the lever, lifts the logs, and stacks the wood. Then makes me a sammich - a good one too

That's the model Grasshopper I would get if I were looking, i've mowed with my neighbors several times when my JD 955 was in the shop.

I have too many steep inclines on my property to not have 4x4 though, and I use the FEL almost every day.
