Default electric bike assist idea

I was considering the electric assist early on.
It does look like it would be a big help.
The ones I have looked didnt seem to have the range i thought
I would need. I mean between re-charging .
that along with price... I always seem to be needing a better blower
or weedeater or whatever. I just decided to keep simple as poss.

Default some new equipment & updates

2 months ago I was hunting for work.... now I am a week behind and hired 2 full time guys this week. I have one of them doing all the mowing and the other doing the bigger projects with me, it wasn't easy to find good help though. In the past month I bought a landscape package to include:

a big trailer perfect for mulch and debris
48 inch encore xtreme zero turn mower
2 self propelled mowers
2 weed eaters edger
tons of other odds and ins

Today, I bought a commercial vaccum, I do so many major clean-ups I knew it would come in handy and pay itself off. The hoses will be in within three days Anyone else have experienece with the Little Wonder?

The chevy below blew the transmission and I'm left with this 5 mpg rig. I have a toro z master that is getting the hydros replaced. Good thing I bought the great dane as a back up. I still havent found a deck for the kubota.

I think this might be the case for me. Most people I interview seem like they will work out and after a day or 2 on the job they are done. I don't know what it is if they are LAZY or just don't want to EARN their paycheck but im like come on!!!!

Thats great! how did you go from hunting from work to turning it down...did you mostly hand out fliers? word of mouth? internet listing? would appriciate the advice still in the hunting stage.

Also hows that tacoma with pulling that trailer. I have a 07' Tacoma 4cyl 5 speed manual and im hesitant as to how big of a trailer to get.

I posted already, but here are three more I took today since I waxed it yesterday.

Last season I recall one of the employees at my dealer telling me (after telling him I just started my own business) "That truck won't look that good NEXT year!"

He was wrong.

Ugh. I REALLY, REALLY need to find some time to get my lettering done.

I saw one the other day where a property management company was using it to haul out garage bags and perform other tasks for the properties it owns. I don't know much about their power though.
