Buzz 502 #4 Posted May 8, 2008 I've watched it several times and suddenly realized that the old man's a THIEF! Seriously... He starts his journey on an old ratty red MTD, sits around a campfire and in the morning rides off on a John Deere!!!!! Where did that come from? Maybe the limp was an act? Unless i dozed off and missed something. Guess I'll have to rent it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rollerman 290 #6 Posted May 8, 2008 I recall he came down a hill & lost control doing some damage to his original mower. If I'm remembering right & guy near the crash sight was a JD salesman & wanted to help him out some. Remember in the movie he actually camped out behind there garage for some time whil the guy got the tractor preped. Good movie....now I'll need to watch again.

Buzz 502 #7 Posted May 8, 2008 it was a reds he was riden he went to the john deere deelership an bought the 110 it was the john deere sales man ole tractor Darn, now i'm going to have to rent the movie again. Must have slept through that part each time. It is kind of a slow paced movie. My apologies to the old guy. If I was younger I could say I missed it because I was getting "frisky", but at my age the only frisky I get is when I buy that brand to feed the dogs.......... :whistle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
