    My friend wanted to use my truck to move a mower, and I said yes, until she told me what it was.

    Woman exacerbated from moving.

    So my (F40) friend (F34) is getting divorced and currently trying to buy stuff for her new house and yard and she let me know that she found a mower, but she
  • 03
    didn't have a vehicle that she could get it in. She drives an older mercury sedan. I figured she'd found a push mower or self propelled mower and I told her
  • 04
    that would be no problem to put in the back of my silverado. Well, turns out it's a larger riding mower. So the thing is around
  • 05
    400lbs or so. Now the bed of the truck is over 3ft off the ground. I told her there was no way in h_l we were going to be able to lift that into the truck bed, and we
  • 06
    should rent a small trailer for the afternoon to tow it. Well her soon to be ex came up with an idea to save money!!! Just use 2x4's to get the riding mower in the
  • 07
    truck!! I told her no way in h_II. They're not wide enough, the weight of the riding mower is still too much at that steep an incline, the boards could slide and we
  • 08
    could damage the truck AND mower trying that, and I'm too young to end up in a life alert commercial (picture the old lady's
  • 09
    saying "I've fallen and I can't get up!). I even offered to take my other vehicle with a trailer hitch and rent the trailer myself to
  • 10
    move the mower, but she's ped at me because I told her yes, we could use the truck. I told her if that wasn't good enough, then
  • 11
    her soon to be ex and his friends could go ahead and get together with one of their trucks and try to thing into one of lift the
  • 12
    Orange pickup truck.
  • 13
    their trucks. Now the only reply I got was an angry "ok" and she's not responding to me anymore. I know I said we could use the
  • 14
    truck, but I hadn't pictured her splurging on a riding mower when she keeps saying finances are so tight for her! Aitah??

    No-Jicama3012 • 7h ago NTA. Wow. She's got balls. She could rent a uhaul for $20 for an hour...but no,
  • 17
    she wants to inconvenience a friend and possibly mess up their vehicle or cause bodily harm.

    IcyWheel⚫ 7h ago NTA You agreed without full information about what was being moved. Is this a new mower? If so, why didn't she
  • 21
    pay for delivery? In any case, it's her problem to resolve. Remember this the next time she asks for a favor (which she no doubt will).

    Similar_Cranberry_23 .7h ago She's the a-he because she didn't specify the type of mower. And also she asked you for a favor. You don't owe her a thing
