Any replies / updates from Fram?

Do you have an E-ZPass for the tolls? https://www.e-zpassny.com/en/home/index.shtml If not you can usually get them at a rest area or something similar. NY is in the process of removing all toll booths and going the E-ZPass route or they’ll take a pic of your license plate and bill you by...

I've had a few sets of Carlisles on different trailers and they've given me good service. About 10 years ago I bought a new travel trailer that came with Carlisles, but whatever the cheapest model they made was at that time. I think they might've even been bias-plys. It was a week old and I...

+1 on Crutchfield. I've been buying from them for 30 years or so and have never had a problem.

I traded in my '07 Caravan that we bought new for the same exact reason. The summer of 2016 the rockers began to give up right in front of the rear tires. Here in PA you'll fail your annual inspection if there's rust on the body. I did a quick bondo job to pass inspection. I noticed the rear...

Mossberg 500 12ga. with slug barrel. Not so much for intruders but there are a lot of bears around here. Some are very, very large. Here's one I saw while heading to work a couple weeks ago about a mile from my house: Of course God Forbid if someone decides to do something stupid it's...

Thanks for finding this... brought back some memories!

I just got a set of 185/65R14 CS3 Tourings to replace the Altimax RT43's that I wore out on my '97 Mercury Tracer wagon commuter. I believe the tread pattern is the same but they just changed the name to Evolution?? I got them on eBay for $149.78 shipped for all four, and they're from 2016 and...

I just replaced the Motorcraft battery in my '97 Mercury Tracer commuter car... It was installed 3/14/05.

Spray some WD-40 on a paper towel, wipe it on your yellowed headlights, and wipe off with a new paper towel. Takes about 30 seconds per side.

I like the lionshead the best, but the blackstars have the least nooks & crannies and look the easiest to clean.

As an update, I plugged the tester in and forgot about it for 2 hours. When I came back it was still illuminated: So unplug the camper on extended stops for now...

Thanks for the replies so far! The camper battery is a group 27 deep-cycle RV/marine battery. I picked up a 7 way tester: https://www.curtmfg.com/part/58270 I'm going to try to see when I lock the truck if maybe the power shuts off after 30 minutes or something like that like AVB and Audios...
