Default I HATE my Husqvarna

Ok, I am the first to admit that I have the Husqvarna mower due to the fact that I blew up our other riding mower. I did my research, talked to other Husqvarna owners, and bought what I thought was a perfect mower for Mr. Doc and I. HAH!

I have gotten the m!@#$$%$% stuck three times. Each time I had to tow the who@@son out with Mr. Doc's Tundran (which does a great job by the way). Indulge me for a minute while I relay my latest adventure to you:

I waited until evening to mow so that I could avoid sunburn and heat stroke. I head out thinking I can get our acre knocked down in about an hour. WRONG: I had just made my first pass when I got stuck in the rut the neighbors made by our mailbox. Rear tire just spun, I tried sort of rocking it (I am sure it was more of a spastic flailing due to the fact that my small size couldn't get this thing to budge). I disengaged the wheels and tried to push it (delusions of grandeur). I reengaged the wheels and tried a cardboard box under the tires. The box shot across the yard. OK, I guess I'll have to tow it. So I get the tow chains (by the way Mr. Doc was supposed to get me some tow straps!), put the Tundra in 4H, hook up the mower, and start backing up---right over my rose bush (which I hate, but that is beside the point). I unhook everything, park the truck,and start on my merry way. It is dusk, I have my sunglasses on, and I am flying around like Danika Patrick at Indy. I scrape my head on a low branch-- that doesn't stop me, I can't get the mower up the hill by the well head, that doesn't stop me (I just roll it backwards - no doubt Mr. Doc is having a heart attack by now), I realize it is getting dark -could be my sunglasses, so I decide to make one last swipe, that does stop me. The MF, HS, SOB Husqvarna gets stuck mowing the area where I walk the dogs and rolls backwards into my lilac bush!!!!!! Tow chains, Tundra, and for some odd reason, ABBA's Waterloo blaring on the radio, I get it out AGAIN


Sorry for the novel, but I need to vent (MR. Doc is asleep across the ocean right now). How can I keep this thing from getting stuck
