I'm waiting for them to make an battery powered generator for when the power goes out, I'm tired of the gas going bad...

Hell I had to take my pressure washer to get serviced I let it sit so long. I have not started my generator in like 3 years. DUMB.

Is a battery pack option for home UPS more expensive (initial investment) than a propane/natural gas setup?

I have these on my ZLE. Pretty much the only thing that fits those rims beside the supercar tires. I have been impressed with them, though. Enough sidewall to hook but stiff enough to corner. Sounds like I have a swarm of bees chasing me on the freeway.


Yeah.. as much as they're known for being sticky, they're also well known for being a little noisy.

My set only has 50 or so miles on them so no noise yet, but iim sure its coming.

How many miles on yours? Im interested to see how long they last being a 100 tread wear tire.

Those may be my next tire.

Does that thing have a huge exhaust tip/muffler? It looks pretty sleeper other than the wheels/tires.

Speaking of Ego. My snowblower came today. Have the mower, blower and weed whacker. Nice not dealing with gas.

This thread reminds me how much I spend...

Pretty low miles on mine. Maybe 4 or 5 gas tanks. Looking mean on yours with the gold rims. I bet you surprise a lot greaseball BMW owners.

Snow shovel I purchased didn't like the oversized stainless screws I installed without drilling a larger hole. So it just fractured. My fault for being lazy.

This cheapo plastic welder I purchased a couple weeks ago during Black Friday worked pretty well to repair the plastic fracture.
It was $28.79 on Black Friday.

So I started by drilling a larger diameter hole in the plastic - lol.
Got the welder out. Inserted the staples in the tip and hit the button. I was surprised at how fast the staples, and the knife shown below, heat up.

The blade did a decent job smoothing out the surface, while the Dremel ground down the sharp ends of the staples.

EDIT: if you order this, make sure you get the consumables kit circled in blue. I had ordered 2 kits. One had it, one was missing.

Of all the electric yard equipment, that is about the only one I can't get behind. Not in New England anyway. That may work for 6" or whatever, or maybe a smaller driveway, but it's gonna need a charge. **** that. I'm all set with stopping mid-way through the driveway to charge a battery or whatever. You just can't predict the snow so I'd never buy one.
DeWalt 20v trimmer, blower, pole saw, chainsaw, hedge trimmer etc. I use all of those. I could even see someone using an electric mower if that was their thing. At least you know how much your grass will grow between mowing.
