landscaping with VW Jetta

[rfed32]

so i was drivin down the road to a buddies house look down the road and i see a 1995 vw jetta with a 4x6 lowes trailer 36'' toro and blower on the trailer...guessin the guy was trimmin the back or something, but it made me think. i guess no matter what you drive as long as you can pull a trailer you can have a lawncare company....

All you need is a mower to be a LCO...

That's the beauty of America:usflag: Or at least it should be.

If it works... why not?

Sometimes you need to forget about what everyone else thinks and do what you have to do.... Use what you must.

What rule book says you must have a 1/2 ton or better and trailer with racks to boot... I missed out receiving mine....

There's a guy in the next town over that has a 70's station wagon and pulls an open trailer with 2 Z's... Not the norm but the guy has been around for years, obviously he's doing something right.

very good point i think there alot of companies that waste money just to show off

but how is a station wagon pulling 2z's around + trialer and other equipment lol few thousand lbs of equip

[rfed32]

jj i know the old wagons could pull a good amount of weight...my gandmom had one that they pulled a camper with it dont know the size tho it was when i was younger when everything looked bigger then it was

[meathead1134]

heck I started even worse, I started with my 2002 hyundai elantra pulling an old snowmobile trailer with my jd gs45 on the back my first year. I have since upgraded to a GMC 2500 pickup but you have to start somewhere if you weren't born with a silver spoon in your mouth. How do you think Domino's pizza got started??

[cessnasovereign]

LOL I saw a Honda Civic pulling one while I was mowing..

A guy that lives down the street from me runs around here with a Craftsman lawn tractor in the back of his old Astro van. On the weekends I see him driving around with the seats back ni the van and people sitting in there.:laugh:

Very carefully i'd say. First time i saw it he had 2 Z's but Last time (bout month ago) i saw him he only had 1 Z and was parked out front of Autozone with a ton of tree limbs piled behind the Z.

Not sure what yr, make or model but here's a pic of the kinda wagon i'm talking about.

Only reason i typically go over there is for my little girls Dr. appts. next time i'll take my digital.

Why that is wrong, the book says you must have a 3/4 ton or better and a 6x12 trailer, I will be sure to send you a copy as soon as I find it, it's right around here somewhere, please wait...

I'm sure the book requires a one ton dually crewcab with a whole entire lawnmower dealership showroom stretched out on a trailer behind it:laugh: I seem to have misplaced my copy too.......
