SylvanLakeWH 25,577 #1 Posted April 1, 2022 I just heard that Regal Red has been discontinued… No word from corporate on the reasoning behind the decision, but rumors among employees at the main Rustoleum manufacturing facility are that a certain shade of green and yellow were replacing Regal Red in their color line up. Mass resignations and protests are forming nationwide… Western civilization continues its slow but steady decline… Oh, Happy April!!! 1 1 16 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has been determined that tractor may shift out of Park if not properly engaged, so Hydros will only be sold until the situation is rectified. Many owners are appalled at this decision and have hidden their 8 Speeds in a remote location... Will keep you updated.....in other news JOHN 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
varosd 1,185 #4 Posted April 1, 2022 I just wanted to let everybody know that I just got off the phone with the CEOs of both Cummins and Toro. The Cummins CEO told me that one of their engineers, with requisite pocket protector and slide rule, had perfected the Onan engines and that they were re-launching them. They can be run on gas, diesel, electric or methane (you just have to make sure that there is no toilet paper getting into the tank). And they figured out that all they needed to prevent the valve seats from loosening was installing titanium paperclips and hubba Bubba bubblegum. The CEO from Toro then expressed remorse about discontinuing the wheel horse line and they stated that they were resurrecting it. The the new wheel horse product line will also incorporate the new Onan powered "620". And since I had brought together these two icons of industry, I would get the first model inscribed with my name. 1 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnymag3 2,520 #7 Posted April 1, 2022 This just in...… Cecil Pond just called Rustoleum and told them they must continue the Regal Red color line in order to comply with the Lifetime Warranty issued when the tractors were purchased by the original owners. There will be a base coat / clear coat line available next month. 3 forms of breathing apparatus must be worn to comply with clean air regulations. Any violations will be rectified by fine or imprisonment. Failure to comply or pay fine will result in forfeiture of tractor being restored to the appropriate party. ( RED SQUARE MODERATORS will be responsible for picking up tractors in question ) in other news...……... 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lynnmor 7,307 #14 Posted April 1, 2022 The electric vehicle mandate has been extended to lawn and garden equipment. Kiss you gas powered equipment goodbye, get the $25 government check when it is forcibly scrapped, then get in line for your battery powered tractor. Current electric tractors will be allowed if they convert to lithium batteries. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
