Looks like you are off to a good start. Few things, take the all pro lettering off your trailer unless they are paying you to advertize for them. Also, park your truck and trailer across the street from the yards you do. After just a little time of your jeep being hit with debris from mowing, trimming, edging, etc. you will begin to notice the marks. My new enclosed trailer got a few little tiny dents and dings from edging too close to it so now everything gets parked across the street from whatever yard is being done.
As for upgrading the trimmers and stuff, just get what ever brand you have a good dealer for. Redmax, stihl, echo seem to be the top brands but all have very similiar products and will last you a very long time if taken care of.

Yes, i have a RedMax BCZ2610S Strato-Charged, best investment (next to my toro WB) that i have ever made, starts quickly and very very very powerful!
Downsides to it:
-The head it comes with is kind of a pain to load, but once you get used to it, its not too bad.
-Takes a little while to warm up, but i think thats just mine and i need to tun the engine a bit.
BUY A BCZ2610S, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!

Are these commercial products alot lighter than the ryobis and what not?
I have the hedger attachment and after a good few minutes my forearms are on fire. So im hopeing they will be alot! lighter.

Thats a good question that i dont have the answer to, but im sure someone else on here will, i bought mine of a friend, so i didnt pay retail.
ANd i made a typo, i actually have the BCZ2401S Strato-Charged. but still same power as i described before! Its the 2nd best trimmer they have

If you're looking for something with many capabilities, I'd recommend the Echo PAS system. You can get a trimmer, brush cutter, hedge trimmer, and some other things. As far as a dedicated trimmer, I'd recommend the Echo SRM-230. IMO it's some of the best bang for the buck.

We lifted our jeep the other day forgot to put the pics up but here they are!
Put a 3inch rough country suspension lift on it with some Maxxis mudder 31" buckshots. Hard to really tell in the pics off of my blackberry but looks great in person!

I havent seen much redmax down here in jax, ive talked to alot of the locals and they stick with stihl or echo ive heard better things about stihl.
Im not even sure if we have a redmax dealer near our area...

oh ok, I had echo hand helds then they were stolen they were junk, so I am starting to get new stuff and I love sthil or Red Max. There are pros and cons to each

Did a oil change and changed all the filters today on the mower and what a different it made! Its a brand new mower again! Just a day for clean but also made a purchase of an echo weed eater! My life has changed! Finally a commercial weed eater and what a different it is going to make. Last but not least our new website is getting ready to launch as I am working on it right now and will post a link later!*trucewhiteflag*
