    U-haul tow dolly without brakes?

    I own a tow dolly and a 16 ft hauler. Both have their advantages/disadvantages, depending on what's being carried. If it's a small FWD car, it'll be on the dolly every time.

    Anyone here use Amazon fire stick?

    The TVs in my TT and 5th wheel are all 'dumb' flatscreens. Using Firesticks smartens them up until they die and/or replaced.

    2015 Mitsubishi Mirage high mileage 1.2 Ltr. engine tear down

    I have installed a hitch on a Mirage. I didn't have to enlarge any holes. The hardest part was fishing the bolts thru the driver side 'frame'. Took about 45 minutes working alone with a floor jack.

    Generator Carb Problems

    Looking to the future, is there a fuel shut-off valve going to the generator? If so, running it out of gas when you're done with it might help with this problem going forward.

    Some Californians may have been filling up on bad gas for years

    My opinion on this is how old does gas have to be to be considered "bad"? Every spring I start buying 'hurricane gas' for the generator(s). I usually fill 2 or 3 five gallon cans. Once hurricane season is over, the gas could be several months old, even with rotating it with my lawn mower cans...

    What's considered an old car?

    Recently the belt tensioner went out on my '92 Saturn. My wife asks if I'm going to finally park it. I'm like - Heck no, it only costs $30 to fix. An hour later (had to pull wheel, remove inner fender, etc) the old Saturn is back on the road with it's ice-cold AC.

    Anyone use PepBoys for oil changes?

    Many moons ago I had Pep Boys do an alignment. They did an excellent job. If it was me, I'd go to that location and observe for a bit and maybe talk to a few of the techs. Go from there.

    Foreign Accent Telephone Reps

    I don't like talking on the phone either. But my reason is that I much prefer a face-to-face conversation. And yes, many problems can be resolved via the internet, but sometimes a phone call is just easier (and quicker).

    Speaking of propane prices.

    That's the way my guy does it, too. I wasn't really paying attention to the scale, but I will next time.

    Speaking of propane prices.

    Are propane companies allowed to put 20 pds in a 20 pd tank? I thought there was an 80% rule, which would be 16 pds. Is that wrong?

    Speaking of propane prices.

    In these parts, Walmart seems to have the best prices on exchange. However, I know of a Murphy gas station that is cheaper.
