Did I go to big?

John,

Thanks for the offer and information. Unfortunately my place does not have the aerial tag on it. Too rural, as of yet. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I did manage to browse www.terraserver.com a while back and found something from USGS there. The detail is just not there for me. The update for our place must have just happened a few months ago, though.

Being only some 50 miles or thereabouts South of you, I hold out hope that "de plane" will come our way!

-Thanks again,
Nice job on the PIC, and have fun with the Tractor.
-Mike Z.

I have a B7500 HST and when I am mowing and the rpms drop I let up on the forword pedal and adjust my ground speed to let the rpms return to normal. When I mow on a hillside I always put it in 4wd and low gear. In 4wd I can stop and start on the hill going up or down. If you start down a hill in 2wd and try to stop and the grass is wet you can't stop. Your wheels will simply slide. Not good. In 4wd you keep control and another reason for low gear is unless you are very familar of the ground a little dip or hole can change your tilt factor greatly.
