No, we're talking about Garden Tractors. A lawnmower is something that your sister uses. Real men have a tractor that can pull a 1-bottom plow, spread gravel, grade your driveway, blow 2' snow drifts, mow 5 acres, and fertilize your wife's putunias, all in time for Pawn Stars and Ice Road Truckers.

Zero turn? Thats like owning a Prius.

Thats the point of taking the bed off...I can take a look at everything and pressure-wash the frame. Rust? Purpl is very clean on the underside. My mom's 2007 4Runner has more rust than this old truck.

Silly purp. Fram is for kids.

I run Wix in the ram and every other vehicle on this lot save for the the performance 454. It does get fram filter just for the simple fact that if it gets 5 miles on an oil change, we're pushing it.

Point?

I'm not putting an expensive filter on a motor that MIGHT see 5 miles on an oil change.

My point was I know that Frams are for kids. I really dont care what your 454 runs for an oil filter.

Man, you are a buzzkill.

Lets start:

For all you naysayers out there My dad talked to a guy at work who has a Cummins Ram and has replaced his fuel pump both ways, dropping the tank or taking the bed off. He said hands down taking the bed off was eaiser. He made the comment that unless you were a blonde, you wont like being on your back that much, just take the bed off.

Getting this Thursday, thankfully NAPA is across the street :
