thats a lot of trimming....and even more cleanup! were they really bad or fairly maintained? I know what you mean about hedge trimming season...we are finished up with landscaping work until August and the whole month of July will be just doing maintenance for the most part

Yeah! they whole place is nice but the guy only does his hedges once a year they werent overgrown but they were not what they should be. I thought I was going to slow down landscaping but over the past 2 weeks I am pretty much book through July

ya stander x is great, actually had it in the shop for a little warranty work and man is it way better than before! the controls on it are so smooth now feels like your floating! It can go up almost anything side to side is iffy on steep hills and down you just have to make sure you have enough stopping distance-if you dont you have to go down the hill backwards

here is a picture this is the maximum it can hold side to side and even once in a while it looses it off this hill. It would climb this fine going down you would need about 15ft to stop. this one is always mowed side to side because it would scalp the steep top

How about a video-took second place in a pulling competition. beat 2 powerstrokes then lost to one. I wish I would have had video of the first round because it was a really good pull.

That is one dirty truck! The exhaust alone is almost a grand. I need to seriously get one even though I have no use for a diesel. What kind of mileage are you getting with it?

Went back a few pages here Brad, everything is looking good man. Crazy to look at the progress of the companies on here. I remember when I was new and had my little trailer and cruddy jobs blah blah blah. And remember you with the blue truck and 5x10 as well. Its awesome to start at the beginning of the threads and work through and watch guys like you grow.
