[QUOTE="cowman82, post: 1851772, member: 43599"] lived around and been around a lot of amish in 3 states. some are pretty hardcore.. living near some now that are.. they can't even have a top on their buggy. all black. They ride in the pouring rain and they have a black tarp they put over themselves. lived by some others that use all machinery.. skid loaders, etc. as long as its used for "work" .. went to some a few months ago. they had 3 buggies and a bunch of horses all tied up.. you went around the barns and they had 3 cars sitting there. Went to one place in KY .. real nice new amish house.. she opened the door and the AC came rolling out. (these were real amish not mennonites.. I know the difference very well) dealt with quite a few over the years.. they'll do you right with construction projects but I would never buy an animal off one. I always went to one place and bought a bunch of metal.. I would talk to the one boy there (20's) and tell him about some construction jobs in town.. . next thing I know they have some "english" working there to talk and take orders.. ooops.. I crack up when I see the "amish" on youtube.. and everyone beleives its them.. real amish won't be captured on camera with their faces showing. and these people on there are so far from amish its not even funny. but keep in mind.. the amish are the fastest growing population in the country.
