Ariens 1336 pro Boat anchor
Original Message   Apr 5, 2007 11:00 am
I bought this machine because I needed a rugged machine that would last me. I would rather purchase a "Tim Taylor" machine rather than fuss with an inferior one. This beast has 13hp, 36" wide, locking diff, heated hand grips, light, elec start, ect.... I have a 100 foot paved driveway. It has snowed 4 times since I purchased it, and it has broke down on me 3 times.  everything from a factory recall that i wasnt notified of, so it burned belts (4)!!, to nuts & bolts falling out, chute breaking, auger stops turning, wheels stop driving, etc.... The dealer has a special place for it in his shop that they dont fill when it is at my place. I believe this machine would last forever,  if i dont use it. The dealer stood behind me 100% when I told them enough is enough I wanted something done, money back, or a replacement. Now it has snowed today, 20", I have a bad back and have to shovel while the ariens company sits on my $3000.00. Anybody else have this problem?

Yo Clint:

Please enlighten us? 

How does participation in an OPE forum parlay into 30+ years of experience with more types of outdoor equipment than you probably can imagine?   In addition to that, I wasn't referring to myself alone.  There are very many mature individuals with a great deal of knowledge on this forum who will probably agree 100% with what I've said. 

By the way, I can see that you're a seasoned participant yourself with three posts in total.  Of which, 33.3% is of absolutely no value to anyone.  Just another yelping pup? 

 


Yo Borat.
I've been driving a car for 45 years. It doesnt make me a race car driver.
Since my resume and birth certificate are not open for public consumption, you're assuming quite a bit.
30+ years of actual job experience on outdoor equipment may trump you armour-alling your lawnmower on the week end.
Dont worry though. You keep up the good public relations work that you do around here and I'm sure you can get some more of those pretty gold stars under your name.

I've read in another issue that Britany Spears has had some death threats against her.

Nicely done. 

With this last post of yours, you've increased your quotient of useless information to 50%.  

You arbitrarily join in on a debate yet bring nothing of the original subject to bear.  You chose to attack a participant without invitation to do so.  Sounds to me like someone just looking for a beef. 

Well Clint, you'll be better off finding someone else.  I choose not to dignify any subsequent posts of yours, by taking time to answer you.   

Adiós.   

P.S.  I don't own a bottle of Armour-All.  I do however own a torque wrench AND a pair of pliers.

"With this last post of yours, you've increased your quotient of useless information to 50%. "
This whole thread is all about useless information. It lost any relevance about 99 posts ago.
It would have died a natural death long ago if you would have stopped torching folks for your own amusement.
Kneebiter is on the mark.
If you want the last word, go for it. You earned it.

Well, AA335 and Borat
In an attempt to get things back where they belong, namely, talking about snowblowers, here goes. Some years ago, I bought a Sears (MTD) 8/26 snowblower. Used it for about 10 years, then sold it, excellent troublefree machine. A couple of years later, I bought the Honda 928(tracks). Doesn't snow a huge amount here, usually, so I kept the Honda for 5 years or so, even though I didn't like it. Bought an Ariens 7524 (small 2stage). Too small when we did get big snow so traded it back to dealer after a few years for 926LE (no diff, no freewheel). Back got worse so I couldn't use it easily. Traded it back to dealer, bought 9526DLE (differential). Got back good dollars for slightly used Ariens from dealer so stayed with Ariens. Used snowblowers are often hard to sell here for a decent dollar because they usually only get used a few times most winters. I looked at Simplicity but couldn't get as much on trade, obviously, because not an Ariens dealer. The Ariens dealer here is excellent so I guess you could say I bought the dealer as much as a snowblower. I intend to keep the 9526DLE for the foreseeable future. I tried to avoid making the above too long and boring. Enjoyed this forum for a few years before posting and will continue to do so in the future.

AA355 seems very concerned about factual accuracy so I can't help pointing out that rabbits aren't rodents, as stated in his post. They are Lagomorphs, a different group altogether. AA335 will probably say I've never really seen a rabbit and don't what I'm talking about.

Thanks for the chronology. 

I stand corrected as I do not know this mammal order classification.  Biology or taxonomy is neither my interest or strong suit.  Visually, the rabbit Lagomorphs resembles a rodent, yet it is an herbivore.  They are a rodent in my classification as I like to keep them out of my yard.  They like to feast on my garden.  I know, they have to eat. 

You know your rabbits.   Pardon my ignorance.
