You SIR ..are a RARE BIRD and I SALUTE YOU.

I just sold a 24 year old TORO riding Lawn Mower because I got tired of Fixing it. It was a Fine mower for someone who can FIX something. I am getting old now and don't feel like fixing stuff anymore. I just bought a Husqvarna tractor that will not need fixing before I die.... NB
