Probably not too many. I checked out their website and I think I'd paint them techno-hippy-geeks. Everyone needs a label of course, but theirs isn't redneck. If anyone does want to see creations of real rednecks, I wholeheartedly endorse "Farm Show Magazine" (www.farmshow.com). Every issue is chock full of crazy things Rufus and Vern welded up from old tractor bits and angleiron out in the barn while they were waiting for the corn to grow. Some of the stuff looks clever and useful, but a lot is truly off the wall. Lots of dangerous devices waiting to rip the arms off the operator or his children. On the link, Farm Show They are now selling a compendium book of past "Made it Myself" ideas for $10. It's mighty entertainin' for the buck. Rednecks from British Columbia? Probably not too many.

But you're certainly not gonna sneak up on any giant flies in that thing. I wonder how it does when you take it off a parking lot. How badly does it tear up turf whilst turning? Very cool.
