Those gas tanks are not D.O.T approved.

[South Florida Lawns]

Don't hit them brakes too hard or that mower's gonna be in the back of the Sequoia!

[Ben's Landscape]

Looks like a good and efficient set up. Can we see pics of your work??

[thu cutting edge]

i would suguest putting a strap across the front of the ferris. but other than that sweet setup.

[Puddle of Oil]

[thu cutting edge]

what are you taking up in college?

[nnj18]

that trailer is an accident waiting to happen........

[TXNSLighting]

that trailer is an accident waiting to happen........

Highly agree...:nono:

[FIRESCOOBY]

Those gas tanks are not D.O.T approved.

Neither are 95% of all LCO's, including those on this website.

Although I do think they should be secured.

[Ben's Landscape]

Definatly agree put a strap on it!!

[ALC-GregH]

he has a blue strap "tied" to each side. That will hold a tank from moving! :D

[93Chevy]

Please, please, please, use heavier straps on your mowers...

I like the use of space and the toolbox.

:-/ mixed reactions here.....:-p

the gas tanks are tied down when transporting, i had just filled 'em up and remembered i owed the forum some pics.... about the front mower, we have ratcheting straps rated at like 8 thousand pounds, i find these pull type easier to use, but i think I'll go back to the ratcheting ones.... and i will for sure put one across the front, even with the current ones on there, the only mower that moves is my bobcat with my parking brake set :(

thanks for looking, truck and work pics coming soon

oh, and im going to college for automotive technology ATM....my partner is a senior in high school, he wants to do something with aeronautical engineering.....yep, we have backup plans HEHEHE

Please dont' call your self a landscaper, if you have other plans, cant stand people who think they can buy a mower or two and onley want to TRY to make money. This is a profession. and now a days, their should be a licesens you have to get to keep people like this from wreckin this industry. dont take it personal iam not trying to affend or bash you but when you say U HAVE OTHER PLANS, your not a landscaper. and that makes others who are Real landscapers a LITTLE upset. Sorry for being blunt, but thats the way it is.

[Juan91]

geez sorry powerstoke man, it must of come out wrong, this is my profession, but of all the owners i've talked to, they have told me to have a back-up plan if something should fall through, i wouldn't be in my 9th year if i wanted to do something else....I'm really pushing for more business this year, sorry again if it came out wrong
