We then went to 3 other places and none of them compared t the first car he drove. So we swung by and told them we really liked it and would be in contact Monday morning. Home and the neighbors backyard WAS MOWED!!!!  AMEN!! I called and talked to neighbor's dad, he's appreciative that I am on his son's butt and trying to teach him things.
