My 104
Least anyone here think I'm rational or sane let me point out my version of stupid.
A neighbor decided to edge her sidewalks. She edged them by digging out about 3 inches from them and about 6 inches down. I asked her about it and she said I could have the dirt. This was great for me as I still have some sunken areas from past gardens. There was only one problem. The tires on my trailer were flat. Not wanting to miss out on the dirt after already bring in a couple of yards worth this year I went ahead and hooked up my trailer to get it.
It was only a couple hundred feet there and then back. I loader my ~17 cft trailer. And it was a load! getting back to my yard both of my tires rolled off the rim. One decided to just lock up the wheel so that it would no longer turn. I got it to my approach which has an incline of about 3 ft. in a 3 ft distance ... about a 45 degree angle. The 104's ag's dug in and then spun. After some jacking back and forth I got the trailer backed up about 3-4 feet. I put her in second gear turned up the gas and with effort made it into the yard.
So yes I mow and move snow. But sometimes I just get stupid and my Cub Cadets have not let me down.
