  1. We use the UPS store nearby. Postal service forwards 1st and 2nd class there for free for our two to three month trips, and we call for forwarding via Big Brown when we think that it is time. Agree with Bill on payments. All of our important ones are automatically deducted from our checking account. I pay my credit card invoice in full, monthly by talking to a female robot. Quick and painless and no charge for the service. 


  2. I use my debit card for local purchases at merchants that I know. Any other purchases/ on-line purchases, restaurants where you lose sight of the card, or deposits for park reservations etc. we use a MasterCard that we have had for forty years. They have always stood by us when a scam has been attempted. Maybe others can back me up on this, but I think the most you lose with a credit card involved in a dishonest sale is $50?.

    Good luck. Hope some agency is able to help.

  3. I have used Blue Beacon countless times for tractor trailer washes. Some good some bad. I used to joke that if you want a good final rinse get your rig washed on a rainy day. You tell the foreman in the wash bay you are in that you do not want "brightener" (acid) and they will oblige. In AZ it used to against State regs. Maybe still is. Alcoa Durabright or Durabrite ( never get that right ) are not dulled by their brightener. Had those on my last rig ( Western Star ) and they kept their shine.

    All of that said/ I doubt that I would take our Phaeton into one. Their sprayer pressure is really high. Our window gaskets would leak in all likelihood, and the spray into the bottom vent of the Dometic Fridge and furnace intake/ vents would probably not be good. Over the years I have seen plenty of Band buses in'em but few class a units.
