I hope you kept two magnets from coming together and your fingers out of the way.

Yes, I was! So happy you noticed.?

Just one question. Where do you get the paper wrappers to smoke all that stuff?

Tomorrow is pork chops cooked by friends here at Little Farm on the River, Rising Sun, IN. Other sides, green beans, kohlrabi and onions sauteed in a heavy cream sauce, and who knows what else may come up. Yesterday I fixed clam chowder for us and friends. Ummm! Goooooood!

Call them direct. Roger and Clair are great to work with. Phone: 336-753-0905

I have used them a few times. It really depends on how the repair place writes up the description. I don't know how that exactly works but a service manager re-submitted a request for authorization and the way he worded it, he said, they approved it.

I have used a chlorine bleach for years. I follow the Mfg's guidelines on amount for my coach. Drain fresh water tank, remove filter, put bleach in hose, hook up to water facet and fill tank. Run faucets to get the bleach smell, then let the system sit for 4 hours or more. Drain, fill with fresh water, run faucets, drain, fill again if necessary. We don't have a chlorine bleach taste. DD, good info on using HP if a smell persists.

Yes, I would have done that also as it seems good. I own a 2013 Lincoln MKX and prior to that a 2007 Saturn Vue. I have an Air Force One braking system. It is a piston attached to the brake pedal actuated through a control by the air brakes on the coach being applied. For both of those vehicles i have mentioned I have had batteries that would deplete to an unacceptable voltage for starting the vehicle. Under each circumstance we were in hilly country and I always have the engine brake/exhaust brake on. When the coach is braking by foot pedal or exhaust brake the brakes on the TOAD are applied and in hill country this can be excessive. I started avoiding the battery issue by stopping every 2 to 2-1/2 hours, starting the car and letting it run for 5 minutes. I did not have that problem. As the battery ages by years it seems that it will deplete a lot faster. I know travel with a "Jump Start" that is about the size of 3 packs of cigarettes laid side by side and puts out 800 amp with the lithium batteries. I've not had to use it yet, but I'm in relatively flat country. The manual I have says to run the engine every 4 hours - but that is to long for me. Besides it gives me time to stretch the legs and yawn a little.

My WInnebago is programmed that way. Not with just the engine running but engine running and/or emergency brake off or in gear and the jacks will retract. It's a safety issue.

That might fill me up. And don't forget, I'm in shape. Round is a shape!

DD, I noticed on the battery picture that charging is 14.4 volts. I'm ignorant so is that what our converters put out?

Also watch out for dielectric absorption. Dormant capacitors can recharge themselves. Maybe not to a degree of intense electrical short but will definitely surprise you. Watch out when you take the new capacitors out of the package, although dielectric absorption is more strongly related to a capacitor that has been charged for a long time.

Joe, it was this one Jim linked. It was so easy. I first called them because I want an expedited reply and just general questions. I then filled out the application and submitted it. I called them back to tell them it was submitted. Later in the day they called me for some additional information not on the application including SSN. SSN is needed in case of litigation later on. Or so stated. Jim, what oil company was the discount at?

Sent in Application.

We have taken it from Amarillo area. A few bumps here or there but okay. It is 10 degrees cooler than I-10 or I-20. As you get to Kingman, AZ and points west until the Coast it will be hot, I mean it will be hot, this time of year.

I think they are all pretty standard with a 14" opening. Besides the electrical hook-ups the seal that comes with them is important. You don't want to compress them all the way. Check with someone that knows more than I do.

Know anyone nearby with a fork lift? Even a bucket loader.

p.s., the journey is the destination, enjoy the journey. Don't forget that being retired means you don't have to get everything done in one day. Being retired is difficult. You never know when you are finished.

Consider all of the people posting that they have experienced good customer service with BO. I'll bet if you take a poll there would be more favorable results FOR BO than negative. Consider all the alternatives given to you and just don't purchase Blue Ox Products. You'll be happy and those of us getting good CS will be happy.

Right across the street from the Alamo is "The River Walk." Take the boat ride. Also, the Alamo is one of the "Missions." Take a half day or more to visit the missions on the mission trail.

Alv is posting on other forums the same information. Seems like just a slam at BO,

Had my previous BO for 10 years without a problem. New one , well I just wanted a new one, had been in service since 2017 and about 7000 miles with no problem. My coiled cable is BO and has been in service 11 years and is still working and coiling very well. I have not had any problems with customer service when I contacted them with information requests, and replacement plugs for the snap in bar.

Well let me know when you'll be there and I'll put the burgers, sausage or hot dogs on. We'll be there starting on the 15th of Aug. and leave on the 5th of Sept.

Carl, no one around the permanent address to forward it to you? BTW, if you take that route keep in touch. We leave Thur. for Rising Sun, IN., (3 weeks) then to Escapee park, Racoon Valley, TN, (two weeks) then Redstone Arsenal, AL for about 1 week. Don't know where after that. COME ON DOWN!
