  1. Canned air down both sides of the wheel? Probably schmutz building up around the sensor. If that won't fix it, puly it apart and get aggressive with the air.
  2. Never had one, or worked on one, but it seems a stretch to point at the brake switch. To eliminate it, look under the dash, or on the firewall. There should be two, a NO for the brake lights, and a NC for the ECM. Fill the air tanks, disconnect the wires, and apply the brakes. Use a multimeter to verify operation of each switch, paying attention to the NC. More likely, the clutch needs adjusting. I'm basing this on my understanding of auto shift transmissions. The ECM uses engine RPM, road speed, throttle position, boost pressure, and a handful of other parameters to pick a gear position. Nowhere in the list is brake switch.
  3. National Bathtub Day? We only have a shower in our 5th wheel.
  4. Colliers has listed Dreamcatcher RV park in Deming, NM and the North Ranch park in Congress, AZ. ETA: It looks like they're offering a 7 park option, including parks in Florida, New Mexico, Texas, Missouri, Tennessee, and Alabama. All for the low asking price of $19.65 million.
  5. Haha! Look who he's calling intelligent.
  6. You say that like it's a personal fault. There's a reason the local donut shop sells multiple size containers. The usually sell donut belly buttons, too, if you're watching your carb intake.
  7. If you have a rural gas co-op, or any kind of natural gas piping in the area, they'll either have someone who installs and test their cathodic (and like donuts) or will have a contractor. The contractors will also like donuts.
  8. Got any pipelines in your area? They're all anode protected, and have access to companies that test/install/maintain anode beds and the underground services they protect.
  9. This! So much, this. We didn't get the heads up, so we did some arbourist work on the local tree-lined streets, with the Jeep in tow. I should have checked the map the night before, like is usually my habit.
  10. 5 grand will get you a rolling Yellow tractor at Ritchie Bros. right now.
  11. Local yard gets $3500-4500 for a full frame cut-off, with no rims or brake drums. You won't get much for your loose axles as an individual selling a very small product volume.
  12. Those Knaak boxes are built! Spent too much time under the front overhang. I've been tempted on a couple Auctions to pull the trigger on 1.
  13. Probably not worth the hassle. You need to have their credit card to use each of the chains' pumps. The chains are mostly concentrated in the bigger centres, in the less "touristy" parts of town. Not all the chains are in all the towns, they selectively non-compete. There's fuel stops all along the routes to and back from the North country that are more than happy to accept Consumer Credit Cards, mostly Master Card and Visa. Don't count on AmEx or Discover.
