absolutely, no questions asked...

There's only a couple of people that i will lend things out to PERIOD.
And only because i have known them for a lot of years.
The rest, no freaking way, i don't care what sob story they have.
The last time was my new lawn mower lent to my sister in law that came back......you guessed it....... screwed up.
It was all scratched up and filthy like it rolled around in her pickup for a week (later i found out that was the exact case), and worst of all, it vibrated badly.
I flipped it over, and 1/3 of the blade was missing! When asked, she said she ran over a root growing above ground and it stalled, but she started it back up with no vibration. I called B.S. on that one, and we got into a screaming match about it. I ended up buying and installing a new blade, but the engine never ran right after that, always had a small vibration.
Never again.
And this is one of about a thousand that went wrong versus about 50 that went good.
