Northern Virginia Roll Call

Um...what?

Welcome!

 

This should be fixed with the side retention piece I ordered yesterday...plus the fender clips and 3m double sided auto tape (so any insight on that adhesion additive would be welcomed) should be here tomorrow.

If all else fails I'll reach out to ya (figured off day work means more direct !!!).

 

TW Express is pretty strong between this and the other south link, as well as in this one, too.

 

Welcome!

 

Deere makes an excellent product. It has a great warranty too. It's just easy to fall into their bell & whistle game. First you'll be looking at tractors with a simple locking rear, then it will be all wheel steer, then AWD. Next thing you know you're looking at a $14k dollar mower. For half that though, this would be the last mower you'd ever have to buy.

Holy shit 6700

 

Anyone interested in this SOS Offroad Concepts Front Recovery Point with 10.9 bolt and washers. It has a few chips in the powder coat (copper antiseize on bolt threads fyi)

Make me an offer via PM and it's likely yours...don't need it with the new front bumper shackles points.

 

Check out Simplicity riding mowers. It gets worse. Or Ventrac.

 

Ventracs are badddddasss machines...didn't even want to look at pricing when I first saw an ad.

 

How strict is VA usually on tint? I'd like to go a little darker but I may not bother if they are assholes about sticking to the published 50% for front windows.

 

See what I mean

And basically 65% of that is all name. Kubota is the same way. Albeit, a little cheaper. However, again, the last more you will ever own. Are they indestructible? No. My Kubota needed a new water pump recently. It was a MFr to change too. At the same time I did my 300 hour service. I saved myself about $400 doing it all myself. I'm good for another 4 years. I also use it to move my 2400 lb trailer around too. That's loaded to 5' high with yard debris.

 

I know lots of folks outside down in 757 area that have been busted for tint, sometimes just randomly tested while in traffic from an accident!

 

Ugh

 

How well do you know your eye doctor?

 

Look into the ceramic heat blocking film, believe it's available at 99% light transmission, forget the brand of hand, but have it bookmarked at work.

EDITED: Not sure that helps per se, but it blocks 80+% for the regular and like 98% for the premium level stuff...considering it for the vehicles due to the baby, and not necessarily getting more 5% of the legal allowable on the front, back and rear windows, and the basically clear on the front window. It should cut down on interior temps in summer!

 

Cayotes are supposed to be good tracters so are Yanmars. After all who do you think makes the small JD's ? At least they used to IDK if they still do or not

 

I don't have one . I've been 20/15 ish my whole life so never had to deal with it.

 

Might want to start a relationship with one if you want to tint your windows. There's a form on the DMV website that has to be signed by a doctor. Then you're legal for 20%.

 

I've been a 20/15 anomaly within my family...but I have photophobia a(sensitivity to sunlight), so I hadn't thought of an eye doctor exception as I presume you're hinting at here @crashdb

Like I'm the guy in daylight downpours with sunglasses, otherwise I barely can keep my eyes open, and get massive headaches. Even my swim and snow goggles are mirrored!

 

You dont say. Might be time to pay a visit, the wife needs a new glasses script anyway.
