Bruce McDonald Spent $8000 Doing Up a Lawn Tractor
Meghan Young — September 16, 2010 — Autos
Go big or go home seems to be a motto that Bruce McDonald lives by, as his jet-powered lawn tractor definitely takes lawn-mowing to amazing new heights.
At the cost of a cool $8,000, this one-of-a-kind, suped up lawn mower is a pricey piece to own. Outfitting it with a 1966 Cub Cadet with a Garrett GTP 30-67 gas turbine, it 'took him 3 years and 150 manhours to complete,' according to Gizmodo. Talk about commitment.
