What they say

Hide

area. [Music] Now, some of you guys are familiar with twees. You've seen them on lawnmowers in the past and I think they're made by Michelin. And basically the ideal of a TWE is there's no more flats. You stay in operation longer and the more your machine is out working instead of being broke down, the more money you make. But did you know that you can now get twe as an option on the new case skid loaders? Hey Michelin, where's mine? And if you guys have ran twe in the past, let me know what you think of them down in the comments below. A lot of times, you know, guys, you've seen me dunk them in water. You've seen me freeze them overnight, pull them out. You've seen me pull these things apart piece by piece to show that all the components inside are sealed. These guys are going to be running these for 5 days underwater. 5 days they still run. Put it back in the water.
