Hi all, been a while since I posted -- hope you guys are doing well. I've
finally managed to get my 240d ready for the road after a long bonded-title

I think one would be justified with a new Grant rule: Don't drive or ride in
a Toyota with a computer controlling the throttle!
If I owned one, I think I would install a big red kill switch to cut power to

Where do you find a $1000 Kubota? $1000 buys you the cheapest MTD ride on. Or

Computer control does not need 11,000 process running to set throttle
position. A dumb servo system can do that with a few transistors.
The system is grossly overcomplicated for a very simple task, and
engines run VERY slowly (and the feedback loop is even slower than the

It raises other questions, for instance, why do we have untestable

I don't do all that much mowing, fortunately. I have a honda powered self
propelled push mower that is ok …. i bought it for $75 in SAV.
As for a lawn tractor, i'd go with a $1000 or $1500 kubota diesel mower … altho
