Most guys don't even know what a sewing machine sounds like. An Air Compressor??? Gimmee a break!

must have a really big noisy sewing machine at their house... I can't imagine a sewing machine that runs like a Massy Ferguson combine.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/grd/2921843007.html a sewing machine would take up less space and be quieter than the Case tractor...

So guys think their toys run like sewing machines now??? Lol.

I don't think I'd want my car to run like a sewing machine, a dinky tiny motor! I want some power under the hood!

This wording is so annoying because any Craigslist search for "sewing machine" or "sewing" turns up these stupid car ads in them!

LOL I kinda doubt it. But it is nice to know that one of them thinks a Singer is quiet. I have a couple of sewing machines that are anything but quiet, and aren't likely to change with any of my efforts.
