Gator Anyone?
Gator Gator fo fator, banana nana fo fator. green and yellow..... GATOR!
Ok the question that I poll the audience with is simply this.
When is a boy to young for his first green and yellow John Deere Gator?
I long for the day that he climbs into his first trusty Gator. His head filled with visions of transporting dirt and rocks from one job site (our backyard) to the other. He carefully loads his stout, and rugged friend with its 35 pound payload. As he strategically maneuvers it down the old dirt road aware of it's imperfections (dog poop). He pulls up to his destianation with a pure sense of joy. A joy that a man can atest to with a job well done. He unloads himself from his machinery, and pulls firmly on the lever to dump his cargo. His load is poured with pinpoint accuracy. The sweat from under his John Deere hat pauses for a momment on his brow. He looks up to his Foreman for approval. The Foreman looks down with a grin, picks him up, and tells him how proud he is of his accomplishments. After the boy recieves his accolades he crawls back on to his Gator, and repeats the process.
That is why I feel that after his 1st birthday that following spring. The boy and I will go and kick some tires and maybe test drive a few Gators. Then we will haggle a bit with the dealer, and eventually that afternoon the boy and I will drive his new Gator onto the jobsite (our driveway) and begin our chores.

He will absolutely love it. I got Austin his Jeep about 4 or 5 months before his 3rd birthday and he rode in it every chance he could get. Most of the time it was at Donn and Johsta's naked. When you get close to buying it let me know I think I still have a spare battery and charger.
Those are nice, they're a little pricy. My bro. picks old ones up at garage sales for $5 or $10, just cause they "seem" broken. But he knows how to fix them too.
