  1. The first thing I would do is have an all wheel alignment done loaded like you were leaving on a trip. I went with 275/80/22.5 instead of the original 255/80/22.5 size. I used the Continental from the tire program. I saved over $100.00 each off the Michelin discount price. Bill
  2. Priorities, I had to go get something to eat. It took 8 hours to go 300 miles. No I didn't go over the George Washington Bridge. Bill
  3. So you have the problem fixed now? What was it exactly the motor or the gears? Rich, hope everything goes well. Bill
  4. I bet you can stretch the speed a little. My CR-V says 65 but it has seen 70 and no problems. You might change the transmission fluid a little more often to be on the safe side. Bill
  5. Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your service. I know where this is Utapo RTNAS. Utapo Royal Thai Naval Air Station, Thailand. What was your job I don't even remember what the code was for Structural repair and Non destructive testing. I was well acquainted with B52D, F, G, H. KC-135 EC, RC and Q models. Bill
  6. I have the all wheel drive LX and since the first of the year in all kinds of driving I have averaged 30.28 mpg. I think they are one of the best toads and I hope Honda makes them towable again. Look online you can find plenty with low milage and in the $15,000 range. Bill
  7. Make sure there is nothing binding/blocking the slide. Bill
  8. Here is a thought. I like my 2014 Honda CRV so much I was looking at what to do if I wanted to replace it. I only have about 87,000 miles on this one. (it doesn't add miles when being towed) One thing I looked at was finding a low mileage used 2014 Honda CRV as that is the last year you can tow one 4 down. Surprisingly I found some with 30-36,000 miles under $16,000. Now with your wife's problems with her hip she may be able to get in and out of the CRV better than some of the others. I would go down to the Honda store and see how she likes it. The CRV has been a realey great towd not to heavy, good mileage, great to drive while we explore the areas around where we are. If you keep your eyes open you might find a used Brake Buddy or some outher braking system and a used towbar. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Bill
  9. What was happening? Which of the Dello oils were you using? Bill
  10. Good idea I think I have pictures some were of them big as seagulls. Bill
  11. Well I would consider one tank not statistically accurate for gauging mileage. Bill
  12. I would be pursuing a warranty solution. Repair or replace whatever it takes to get it fixed. Bill
  13. "Not trying to make this a long story" Well you need to elaborate some more. Please explain how changing your oil will lower your block temp enough to affect mileage. How are you monitoring what is going on in your engine? Bill
  14. Just a note, Turning Stone Casino Campground is in Verona NY not Main.☺️ Nice area I was close buy but didn't stop last month. I was at Waterloo Harbor Campground. Then up on the Saint Lawrence River at Merry Knoll Campground. Do you have your Passport? I would recommend the Canadian side of the falls and McLaren Campground further up the Saint Lawrence River There is also a interesting place there called Upper Canada Village. uppercanadavillage.com If you need more info let me know. Bill
  15. I already have reservations for next Memorial Day in Ithaca NY and in Maine the week after back at Blueberry pond outside of Free Port. I will probably come up a little early to spend time in Erie and Western NY.😉 Bar Harbor and Arcadia is a great area. Try eating at Geddy's on main https://geddys.com/menu/. There are a lot of good places to eat in Bar Harbor and the area. Lots of places in Free Port including LLBeans. Bill
  16. I will take that to heart. Where in Main do you go? Bill
  17. I think they make up the price as they go along. They charged me $76.00. Byron, I have already been all over New England, now in RI and taking the toad back to Boston tomorrow.😋 Going to JFK Presidential Library. https://www.jfklibrary.org/ Bill
  18. Last time I was in the area we stayed at Leeds RV Park & Motel, 97 S Valley Rd, Leeds, UT 84746, leedsrvpark.com, (435) 879-2450. After Labor Day you might find something closer. Bill
  19. I have to guess as you didn't say. I would isolate the outher 2 batteries and see if they will take a charge. How old are the batteries? Have you checked the ones with alleged damage ? Bill
  20. I meant to tell Byron that I crossed this time on 4 at Glen Falls. Just to stay away from the GW. Then worked my way east so I could go to Ben and Jerry's. My wife never makes a mistake or misses a road sign. I am not as brave as you. Bill
  21. You live dangerously, she might read this. Bill
  22. Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your service. Bill
  23. How is the construction coming on the TZ? Bill
  24. Left Main and am in RI. The way GPS tricked me (all was look at a rout on a real map) was It kept refusing to get off I-95 north. I kept trying to go up to the TZ but it wouldn't change. So I tried routing to a town on the outher side of the TZ bridge and it seemed to work. What it ended up doing was instead of going across the TZ it had me crossing on the George Washington and going North along the river to that town. Byron, you just have a thing for the GW. Bill
