They have a vested interest in billing more so your repairs are excessive. Personal experience. Never ever ever go there unless it's an emergency Moreover they have a cute diagnostic flat cost of 375. Friends don't let friends go to mike Thompson fountain valleyRe: onboard GPS systemsI've probably personally spent more than anyone in this forum on GPS technology...Trust me - I'm a pilot! :) Anyhow - for cars, I've always enjoyed the Kenwood line. Alpine, Pioneer, Eclipse - they all have some form of premium product, but the nice thing about Kenwood has been their licensing and inclusion of Street Pilot Technology into their 2din NAV line. The downside is that updates on a dash mounted unit could always be a little slower or out of date than portables unless you have creative means for an update. http://www.kenwood.com/ce/dnn1/na/en/dnn992/index.html If recency of information is your deal, then Garmin Portables are probably best. You can't find an easier interface to use. Iphones are fine and I use mine more than most...it's just...so inferior by comparison to what Garmin offers. The downside to Garmin is realtime context.Re: What did you do to your Class A MH today???1. Finished the cabling on the new 6 Sunpower225 Blk Solar Panels 2. Installed a combiner box from Imagine 3.

In fact, they'll support Dish HD even if they don't support Directv on HD.
