    You use a leaf blower to clean your garage???
     
  2. Nope, I used a leaf blower to clean off the top of my old flat 6 when I first got my Dodge. Lots of dirt and nuts and **** on there. Actually really time effective and worked damn good, too. I'm not a Redneck. I'm Sicilian.

    No. Not at all. I use one to clean the pine leaves off of the driveway so that they don't blow into the garage.

    No I use it all the time to clean the garage dusty parts. I shove it in older engines to blow out ****, like in the water pumps and water p***ages.
     
  7. Nope...

    Doesn't mean you aren't a redneck though...

  10. Only if your wife is using it to dry your freshly washed mullet while you work on your push-mower.

    we use a backpack leafblower inside at the warehouse I work at to clean cobwebs off the walls. Combine that with the scissorlift to blow off the walls up to 35' up....then yea, maybe we're rednecks. :)

    I was blowing leaves last weekend and the thought did cross my mind. My garage is very dusty. Never did blow the garage. Maybe I thought it was too rednecky.

    Some might say that I'm a redneck cause I find car parts when I cut the back yard. Kind of hard on the blade and crank.

    Redneck or not,I keep a small electric leaf blower hooked up in my shop all the time..I've been doing the body work (filler,primer,blocksanding) on my trackT project and that dust gets everywhere...I just open the shop door,turn the floor fans to blow out and let'r rip with the leaf blower...also,my floor is ROUGH concrete and a broom just don't work...Only ,ya can't forget and turn it toward the desk where all your paperwork is stashed...then ya spend the next 1/2 hr chasing papers all over the driveway,hunting under the workbench,etc...ask me how I know !

    we use an electric one to blow light snow off the cars for sale. Quicker and more thorough than sweeping. But don't think for a minute my neck is any color but red.
     
  23. I always thought you were a redneck if the wheels cost more than the car

    ...leaf blower is very handy.
    Best way to uber-clean garage.
    Also inside cars, engine bay, trunk.
    Even inside house.
    Put evacuation fan in one window to create vacuum inside,
    and blow away.
    Dust stirred up and ****ed out.
    Really a "deep" cleaning process.
    Works best if house is vacuumed first.
    Handy for getting behind and under furniture.
     
  25. The neighbors love it every time i blow out the garage......

    I used it plenty of times before.. but all the **** just comes in when the wind picks up again.. I can't even get too far into my garage now to clean it with a leaf blower.. spring cleaning comes late for me.

    you might be a redneck if....

    Your idea of a nice exhaust system is the lack of one.
    A "fuel efficient" vehicle means the gas tank doesn't leak.
    Your idea of a "good time" involves mud, trucks, and girls in various combination.


    You might be a hotrodder if...

    You peal rubber more than oranges.
    Your idea of a nice car currently lacks a drivetrain.
    Something breaks on your car, and you have 2 spares with you.
     
  28. Ahh- heck, a leaf blower is a shop tool for me.

    I don't even have a garage right now, but I DO have my F100 on jackstands with the front cradle cut off!!

  29. whutz thet supposed tah meen?
     
  30. No, it doesn't make you a redneck... it just means you've watched Caddyshack too many times. Just be sure if Ty Webb hits a ball through your window, to let him play through.
