          Same here, well 80 to 85 anyway. I drive down the highway going to the dump with a load of leaves, doing 60 MPH, and cars and big rigs are flying by me. I feel like Jed Clampett. It's kind of fun, lol!

            I put bigger tires on the back, that way I'm always going downhill.

              Sell all mowers, purchase 100 billy goats, let them loose on lawns, charge customer extra for 'premium' fertilizer.
