Nice truck. How big is your crew? I would have personally gotten a 4 door.

 

Hey Pete do you like that Scag? I got a turf tiger.

 

nice truck pete glad your business is taking off

 

man i love those trucks, i drove one planting one year, mmm that turbo diesel...

 

Its not bad. I got it for 800$ used, but the engine threw a rod, so 1100 later its got a new engine on it and doing substantially well. I must say thou, the rider I just bought is insane. Its a Toro Z Master. It has a 23 hp diesel engine(kubota) but its got 45 ft lbs of Tq.......nice money making machine. Scags are nice, but toro offers a product that is just as good, if not better..........for 0% APR for 3 years, with NOTHING down.

We have 3 machines. 60 inch Toro Z master Rider, 48 inch SCAG walk behind (with sulky) and an Exmark Metro 36 inch (Gets thru standard gates) Also with a sulky.


Scag has 17 horsepower, Exmark has 15 horsepower, and toro has 23 hp............a sulky is that think u stand on with wheels.......

 

Sounds like you are getting all the right things for the job and I wish you the best with it... I invested in one of my friends and man was I happy with the profit I get back. I bought 3 riders and 1 walk behind, a 40 ft goose neck and a used dodge 2500 the year before last and he has already paid me back for all of it plus the check I get from him every 2 weeks. I have almost made 70% profit already off my investment. We worked out a deal that in 2 years I am just going to sell him my part because him and all his crew do all the work. By that time his company should be doing good and I should make about 300% profit and sell to him for $20,000. So 300% profit on my investment and $20 grand is not bad for not having to do any work.

 

Here is the truck and goose neck I bought and the other to is of the new truck I just got for the mines and he uses it some also... Well it's not to new I got it right before it turned cold. My dad bought and didn't like it and let my brother have it. Me and him used it at the mines and to pull are sea doos and my brother just moved back to West Virgina and left it here

PETE, dont dare come down to HOUSTON, and take away our JOBS!!!!
dude, so this where all the money come from, landscaping biz. lol nice

 

do a goodle on Brickman. I am looking to compete with them. Hell, if I can make 1% of their gross, I will be doing WELL.












Cutt, it must be nice to just have things handed to ya, my parner and I funded EVERYTHING....not 1 single handout.

 

Well I wasn't looking to get into it. My friend came to me needing help and had a good plan together for his company. I was investing and helping a friend get going in life because I at the time he had just got married and had a kid. I really didn't think that the pay back would be that good and that fast and I also didn't care. I was doing it to help him out and I know that investing takes time. I guess it was just in the cards for me and him both to do good off it. I wasn't all way just handed stuff Pete and I not really handed stuff right now. I got 2 salons working on tryin to get a 3rd one off the ground and I work in the Coal Mines which no matter what you do there your not going to have a pie job. But stick with it and work hard Pete and you will make a good living doing this and I would like to help with any question that you need help with. I like to see people do good and profit well if they are out everyday trying to make something of there self.
