Lightbulb Lawn mower trailer hookup / backup camera system.

Hey Everyone:

Hooking up your lawn mower trailer is a PAIN!!! I can't count the numbers of dents in tailgates, bumpers, license plates, and van rear doors I have been responsible for over the years. Well, no more.

I came across a really neat camera / wireless receiver unit a few months ago. The camera attaches to your truck tailgate and a wireless receiver is viewed by the driver to let him determine when his hitch ball is under the lawn mower trailer mount. I genuinely like this lawn care product. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to get one.

I have been using it for two months. The engineering is top notch and I am very pleased with it.

Lawn care business tips
That is awesome! You could send these product review in to lawn care magazines and I bet they would get published! That could bring you a lot more exposure. Keep up the great work.

SprinklerRepair is an unknown quantity at this point

I used to put my cut my 20 foot pipe in half (10' pieces) through the sliding rear window of my '98 Ranger, and then put all my sprinkler parts in milk crates in the bed.

Now I use a 4x6' trailer for my parts. Luckily I do not have lawn machines inside so I can drag the trailer onto the hitch.

Speaking of "hitches" (horrible lead in I know, but this post is totally self-serving), are you hitched to the internet search engines? If not, I'll hook you up (an even worse lead in)! The "Dothan Lawn Care Caper" will be out in 48 hours.

Hate my self-serving "carnival barker" approach? You don't KNOW hate! See what these peaceful loving folk say about me here!

Yeah yeah...and I thought you were going to compliment my Lawn Care Tutorial linkjuice. I guess my life's ambition of making SprinklerRepair say "holy crap" remains unresolved.
