GIE Expo

Many thanks to all who stopped and visited with us at the GIE Expo in LOOvul, KY. We had an excellent show!

Special thanks to Moose River Media and Susan Roush of Roush Racing for contributing to our outstanding showing.

As always, I'm here to answer any questions you folks have in regard to propane conversions/mowers. I promise I'll do my best to get you the information you want.

When we was taking to you at the Expo I didn't realize you was the guy that posted in this section. More surprised when you told my son about providing propane in Austin. Can be small world. I was very satisfied to be able to talk with many people we did business with over the years.

WOW! Wish I'd known, I'd have bought a round of corndogs!

I hope you all enjoyed the GIE. I really enjoyed talking with y'all even though by the second night I was hoarse.

Did the son get an autographed poster?

Did you get to see Charlie Daniels?

We had just drove in the nite before and was still trying to recoup. Next time we will plan to spend more time we both really got a lot of very good info from you and many others. I didn't but 2 and 2 together until I got back to the room and looked at your poster. Maybe next time.

LOL. I have that effect on people.

You know, I got to thinking, Texas is one of the best states for rebates from PERC (Propane Education and Research Council) and the Texas PGA.

If we were to buy several new zero turn mowers what would they cost above the price of gas engine model ? Lets say the mower was 10 k each for gas , what would the propane units run ? What do you see the average cost per gallon being right now ?
