Working on a punch line (no pun). :B My worst: Kidney StoneRe: truck push-button start? careful where you set your 'key'I can't speak for all these other vehicles but my Exploder complains if the key is outside of the drivers seat radius more than about 3', just beyond the door handle This is completely different from simply unlocking it where I can get easily 150' range to unlock and remote start. And Yes, you can wrap it in foil and totally isolate it from the car receiver. I used to hide a Keyfob in the car and it never knew it was thereRe: Any tv antenna recommendations?Well you already have the worst antenna on the market (but u knew that).. The Batwing has proven to be the best ifor RV service, with the Jack coming in a distant second in performance ONLY if there is no room to mount the Batwing.Re: Quartzsite make you sick?

There will be an epidemic outbreak of VF if its dry and the ground has a chance to shake the dust upRe: Microwave Overheating - Catch on Fire??? KD4UPL wrote: Beside needing something in the microwave I would question if it's rated for that long of continuous use. Most people run a MW no more than 5 minutes at a time. I would assume the cheap ones used in RV's probably aren't designed for that kind of duration. thats why there are internal fans and power management systems. These microwave units are exactly the same as is found in a residence or apt.Re: So, opinions on this MH (our first) for our use tropical36 wrote: ---snip--- IMO and even if a WH W chassis, the asking price is outrageous. Maybe you should try and find a consignment sale or from a private seller for around $27K and this in excellent condition, otherwise, you'll soon have super retail in it and be down underwater after the first year of ownership. Click here for some reference and even though not the bible.... NADA Being a private party that's likely the payoffRe: Microwave Overheating - Catch on Fire???That microwave expects to dissipate 1000+ watts into some sort of a "load" (food, liquid, etc) in that cavity, it's no surprise it got hot IF it was empty. Put a non-conductive bowl of water in there and see what happens. Those Klystons can take a beating so it might be fine.Re: Help removing bio-diesel from paintDawn If it's good enough to clean crude off if birds.......Re: RV Consumer Group Ratings report - is this report accurate? CountryB wrote: wa8yxm wrote: Many class A's can benefit from a few upgrades In fact the standard class A design is leaf springs all 4 corners. THIS causes that 'Wander" the rating group noticed. Simply adding a track bar or two stops it DEAD. That sounds like a reasonable mod for an older model - but I should not have to modify a $250,000+ motor home so it drives properly. If track bars help why isn't the manufacture putting them on? Thats a very good question, but irrelevant. I suggest you throw out that report, read what Ziggy said above, and find yourself an RV show somewhere you can drive various models and feel the difference for yourself. There is no way that a generic Class C is going to out-handle a generic Class A of the same year. A Class C is on a van Chassis where the A is on a generic truck or custom HD frame, or bus Chassis. There are exceptions on both sides but you're going to have to pick carefully to find the mis-match you say this "report" has come up with.. And also look at physical storage and weight capacities while doing all this research, you're in for an education because right now you're getting skewed by inaccurate and incomplete info. I wonder is this is the same group that was skewered here many years ago for claiming "expert" reports that n o b o d y could quantify ?
