(ET) RE: New member needs an ET

["jay" <jay buseng com>]

 If you decide you want to buy an ET, I have
a near perfect E12M for sale.

 I have no problem mowing an acre with one
charge on it, and I have a tendency to wait
until the grass gets fairly high.  My
batteries are two years old.  The tractor gets
very little use as got it cleaned and detailed
prior to someone from the list supposedly
buying it last fall, but he never showed.  I have
kept it clean and pretty since, thinking I would
get around to promoting it.

Have a couple of minor accessories for it, the
mobile hedge trimmer and an extra blade motor.

If you are interested, I can send you detailed
photos.  Of course, you are welcome to come try
it out, here in beautifil southeast Georgia, midway
between Savannah and Jacksonville.

 Asking $1,250; phone is 912-224-2083.

Thanks,

Jay
