Is it like this one...

I bought that one the day after Ivan because I was gambling on State Farm reimbursing my mother for it since she was on oxygen. And the gamble paid off cause they reimbursed her the whole amount.
It is by far and away the finest piece of power equipment I have ever owned. It runs like a swiss watch and always starts on the first pull (the starter battery died and I don't really care) and is so quiet that it cannot even be heard inside the house.

Not so sure that I agree with that statement. I had a car that was completely written off because of a flood when the rising waters breached the engine.

He was refering to a 190 Bobcat skidsteer that got flooded.

Bright blue skies this morning. High winds.

Bob, I had one of those 3,000 watters, but it was too heavy to lug around. I see that the new ones are much lighter. I sold my 3,000 watter and bought a 2,000 watter. It was almost 100 pounds lighter! Your 3,000-watter us quieter than my 2,000 watter.

When I had that 3,000 watter, I started it up in our driveway, took two steps away and the natural gas whole-house Generac from two houses away was louder. No shit!

Bob, before I sold my 3,000-watter, I replaced the battery. It wasn't hard.
--------------------

Hallmarkgrad, I put my daddy's marina fork lift so far into the water you could only see the tops of the hydraulic riser. Our mechanic got it running within a couple of hours. When the wrecker came to pull it out, I swam down and hooked the cable to the fork lift. My dad then said "You rode it in. You're riding it out." I swam down to the seat, held my breath and rode the damn thing out. (It wasn't a good time to argue about NOT riding it out.)
