Was driving home a couple days ago on i94 in Chicago and spotted this Bonneville.

Looks like they had a makeshift mount laying inside the trunk sticking out. That's two mowers hanging out. Crazy!

Anyways, my exit was coming up and only managed to get these two photos. Tell me what you think about this.

Looks well built to me. I like the ratchet strap that holds down the deck lid.

Yeah, everything looked like is was strapped down pretty tight, and nothing was flapping in the wind.

Oh, that's the Bonneville DLE - Dual Lawnmower Equipped. They dropped it from the model lineup early in production due to the unfavorable 'Lawneville' moniker that developed. :laughing3:

Those are some smart 16yr olds entrepreneurs. Don't need no stinking truck.

Eh, my new Toro's handle collapses down and it fits PERFECTLY in the back of my car with the "60" seat folded down...

I'll save the 2x4's for the work bench...
