Lots of cool equipment from various vendors such as Toro Dingo, Kanga, the Dixie Chopper with an extension to trim under trees,hedges, etc. Looks like a real time saver to me. The most impressive piece of NEW equipment was the Hustler Super-Z. While I'm not interested in speed, 15 MPH, the machine was extremely responsive to turns, and zero effort zero turns without tearing turf. I really liked the Hustler Super Z. I even met the president of Excel-Hustler and his sons. Talk about nice folks!!!

Another piece of equipment I really liked was the new after market air filter from Enginaire. I believe they have a winner with this filter. It's sort of a cartride type that is similar to the D.C. air filter.

I also liked the Magna-Matic blade sharpening system and the Isuzu NPR Diesel with the Wil-Ro landscape body. I gots to get me one of them!!!! Come on September when I will order mine.

Kohler served up brats on the grill and Pepsi products again and I am thankfull for the free eats. I was stuffed!!!

Expo was great and I'm looking forward to next year.

The guys from Turf Mag took some pics. I am hoping they post them on here for everyone to see. I forgot my camera or I would have plenty (sorry).
