  1. Herman, done it with our two cars. First is to wash it to get it clean. Then apply Ceramic and spread with microfiber cloth over entire vehicle. That establishes the base coat. Here is the Meguiar's video Since they put it out I would go by their recommendations. p.s., Tell DW to just do what the physical therapists say to do when she is doing PT. The mind wants to say, "If I do more I'll heal faster," and that is ot the case. Doing more can cause more injury. If they say 10 repetitions, do 10, not 11 or 20. I have had both ACL's reconstructed and both knees replaced. PT for all of them is the same. Left knee was replaced this last January 21st.
  2. Just re-read this thread and I have to disagree with you Brett. It was a Proctologist and he installed it by going up the muffler.
  3. I'll stick with NC Quick Pass/EZPass - no monthly that I know of until no use after 1 year. I just looked at my statement and it is the same as it was back in Sept 2019. No brainer for me. After 1 year of no use I believe it is $1 a month.
  4. Carl, got mine (NC Quick Pass E-ZPass) from North Carolina for $7.50. They sent the transponder and window sticker - called them and they said don't use the window sticker just move the transponder from one vehicle to the other. Both vehicles need to be registered on their system. They populated the credit card with $40 and the next month because of high usage the populated with $75.
  5. Joe, where's the grass for the puppy?
  6. I'm only 43' so just a little hang-over-the-water.
  7. Earlene had one eye done last fall. Said it was great. Good luck and follow the doctor's orders - I know you follow Linda's orders.
  8. That would make him more tolerable for sure, for sure!😀
  9. Brett, what about DEF that has sat in the tank for 3 months?
  10. For what it is worth, here is my post from back in June 2019. I have added the bolded lines. The phone number for NC is there so call them. They will answer all your questions instead of getting a hodge-podge of different ansers. p.s. you can buy the same type Velcro at hardware stores that is used for the transponder and to transfer to the TOAD and back and forth. Additional Info: (From NC web site) "Your NC Quick Pass E-ZPass and NC Quick Pass E-ZPass Flex work on toll facilities in North Carolina, Florida (SunPass), Georgia (Peach Pass) and the following states where E-ZPass is accepted. Your NC Quick Pass E-ZPass can also be used with the NC Quick Pass HOV App or website to set HOV status and travel toll-free in the I-77 Express Lanes. Delaware Florida Georgia Illinois Indiana Kentucky Maine Maryland Massachusetts New Hampshire New Jersey New York North Carolina Ohio Pennsylvania Rhode Island Virginia West Virginia
  11. Okay, not charcoal. I presently have the Weber Q1200 but that is what seemed to be better suited for us at the time. Prior to that I had the stainless steel "sportsman" which was small and efficient but it got flooded with Cat 3 crap during Harvey - lost the MH. If I were to do it again, or when the Weber quits, I'll get a portable pellet grill. I have replaced my gas grill at the house with a Traeger Pellet Grill and enjoy coking on it. It is convection cooking. See, no charcoal! p.s., search on Portable Pellet Grill if interested - but do remember that it is fired by electricity which to me is no problem.
  12. I have replaced two rear top hats traveling down the road. Expensive to the the hat and the nut. I now check mine but I don't have that wrench. I use a very large plumber's pliers with the slip jaws. Fits nice and I can tight them - just a little snugger than hand tight.
  13. Or buy a realtor's key box and hookit around the gas compartment or some other place.
  14. A 1911A1 Colt 45 ACP has magazines you can purchase that exceed your expectations. Magazines Ans a lot of other handguns.
  15. I added a link to my previous post.
  16. Well gee Joe, They are to keep the rain out, right? Oh, wait, they drain water. My bad.😀 Yep, Atwood made the ones for our Wbgo. Just remember y'all, they have right hand ones and left hand ones for the different sides. They are not expensive. This Amazon link is to show the picture. Notice that one side is tapered. That is why they have right and left hand sides. They just clip on with the tapered side toward the front. Weep Hole Cover
  17. I have a very robust anti-virus and malware suite on this computer plus Web Of Trust (WOT). I don't have any problem with that site. I am using Firefox 77.0.1 (64 Bit) as my main browser. As suggested, try another browser.
  18. Yep, meant weep, not week! Sheesh! Dumb fingers don't know where the keys are. I know Winnebago has covers for the weep holes and right handed for one side and left for the other. They probably would fit other models. Here is a link to some Weep Hole Cover Images
  19. Maybe week holes in side windows?
  20. I used to have my wife wash it, then the kids told her to stop as she was in her 70's. Now it get's done once or twice a year by a mobile washing company. Darn kids!
  21. Yep! Keep speed down to engage lower gear. Typically exhaust brakes are set to downshift to 2nd gear. The Allyson transmission will not go directly to that gear if the speed is up but will downshift to the next lowest gear depending on your speed. As you are descending a hill the momentum will cause you to speed up. Let's say the speed limit is 65 and as you go down the hill you are up to 70 or 72. Apply the brakes, slow down to 60 or so and let the exhaust brake work for you. as it speeds up repeat the process. I know when the momentum will speed up the vehicle so I apply my brakes to slow down to about 10 or so mph under the limit and as it speeds up I repeat the process. Many times you know the hill exists so downshifting when you get to the top and start down is always good. I have found that typically 4th gear is good but I have even gone down to 2nd gear on some grades. Yep, slows you down to 20-25 and people will fly by you but that is better than heating the brakes up and have them fail. Happened to my FIL once and he had to exit a run-away landing. He said it wasn't fun.
