Being spoiled by the wifey.
She has given me permission to buy a mini-excavator.
Sold her on the idea, that the yard will get beautified, and that our boy needs to become a man and learn how to drive machinery (he is 7).
So oracle of knowledge known as NSMB. Coach me on mini-ex's. Yup, I know they cost 15,000$ old and 25,000$+ new.
