Recently shopping for riding mower, went to Winchester Va store. After buying mower, was told they did not deliver to my town. Sent me to Cumberland MD, about 100 mailes away. On a hot day, in unairconditioned truck. Bought mower in Cumberland, also wanted gas grill. Told would have to pay 2 separate delivery fees for items. Canceled gas grill. They charged me tax on the delivery fee. Satisfied with the mower, but will never again shop in Cumberland MD store.

My truck is only a small pickup - not wide enough for a riding mower. Pluss all the kids in our neighborhood are little kids. Thanks for the suggestion.
You made mention of driving your truck to the store. Our local store will put things in our truck and then I'll give a neighbor kid a couple bucks to unload it. Much cheaper than delivery. Just a thought for future situations. Let me know when you get that Gas Grill.... I'm hungry... lol.
