RE: Be Safe Out There - Roll over in AZ

I try to have a sense of humor...but, as an RV'er I'm having a hard time seeing this as funny.
I guess I'm just no fun.
The article states that there were only minor injuries. At least that part is good.I agree, but the dog ridding in the trailer, wow

RE: parking pad for 38 Foot Neptune

24" deep and two layers of rebar???????? It's not a 747. OP, after sawing the 24X24 pads (you can use a cheap blade on a circular saw) only dig down 6" and go get some bags of extra strength Sackrete form HD. Even on FL sand this is thick enough and no need for rebar. At least you will not have to measure where to put these pads. Might want to mark where you tires are to make it easier to reposition the MH.
That is why you are NOT a contractor. The OP is in New Hampshire and the ground does freeze up there from time to time. Pour it the way you are recommending and it will "heave" the first time the ground freezes.I would just buy 4 stepping stones, should hold a 767 without any problem.
Stepping stones over a crater in the asphalt would probably break as soon as you started applying the weight.On mine I just open up the door and drive it in plug it in.

RE: Driving with air conditioner

We usually run the house air. I don't think it costs that much more and it's worth it.The cost comes on the other end when the gen gives up with to many hrs and one might pay $4000 for a new one.
Are there really too many hours for a generator? It's designed for a single thing, and should go into the thousands if not tens of thousands of hours before it's time for replacing. In fact, I would think that not enough hours are more detrimental to a genny than too many hours. Like anything else built by human hands, there are going to be defects in some that shorten their lifespan, but that can equally apply to the dash air or engine as well.Was that a limited warranty you just offered?

RE: Downsizing to a C

I just went to a C V-10, If I had got a diesel, I would have to pay a lot more money, than have to smell it every day. Hear it loud and clear when I drove it. Feel the shake, and track in all the oil from the diesel pumps. Do I want to go diesel to save a few dollars. I don't want to be a truck driver. I want to be a summer traveler.

RE: Gas prices are down

It's been a couple of weeks since I saw gas at $.17/gal. Seems the day before yesterday, diesel was cheaper than gas. I just don't drive as many miles today as in yesteryear!:)My father told me diesel was 2 cents per gal no one had a use for it. That was about 95 years ago. When I was a boy we paid 19 cents per gal for gas on the farm, pigs sold for $5 per hundred lbs, corn was a $1 and a new Harley cost about $1000 dollars, this week the dealer wanted $1500 to fix the motor in my rear side window of my sports car. We are living in a nut house.

The price of fuel seems to be down. I am going to burn that expensive gas that is in my tank so I can buy some that is cheaper:hMy stocks went up a lot this last week, so I'm going to drive a lot and spin my wheel because I have all the extra money this week to spend on gas and fun.
