If you use your bed as a catch all flatbeds make you cleaner downside is when your in a pinch you dont have random crap to pick from in your pickup

I had a buddy who bought a new motorcycle helmet and walking out of the Harley store promply dropped it on the ground intentionally, said " got that out of the way dont have to worry about the first scratch now"

I would run it! its a work truck, next scratch wont hurt hardly as bad.

Dirt work is great till it's not and dirt work is one and done I think your risk in grass is slim compared to dirt work I doubt lawn care jobs keep you up at night trying to figure out the next piece of the puzzle on a job

From what I see grass and lawn care have pretty good margins and it can be really consistent it's a really good way to build a buissness

Your right but I’m change my name to overgrown property company since that’s all I get is these yards that are knee high

That grass look high enough to use a sickle bar. Did you ever think of bailing the cuttings? Might be enough there for a marshmallow even.

If I start bailing the grass there better be a buyer because this is a constant issue right now my special is overgrown yards that others don’t wanna do

I hope that yard has better drainage than it looks like. Seems every time it rains it would flood the house! But then that's not your problem just mow the grass and let them worry about it.

A little expensive but if you have a tractor a flail mower like an Alamo is the cats meow for tall grass.
