  1. well we were going to stop in on the way home ,but it seems that health insurance (government) frowns on us dallying . So straight home from Ft Myers next week
  2. we were going to get there week early anyway ,still a real good possibility.
  3. I do as you, line up the cab side to trailer then gently back and ........ click click easy.I was going to get a camera might still get one but after almost 10 years with out .............proly not
  4. great couple ,wish them all the best
  5. sweating in ft Myers ,looking forward to those cool Tenn. nights
  6. we are in got the t shirt no hat?๐Ÿ˜„ kidding
  7. yup had a eternity to contemplate a weight loss program
  8. I had a telescoping ladder ,it was fine until it got scored /damaged ,the locking mechanism then became unreliable. A light sanding /smoothing helped for a while ,all in all is was too easily damaged and a tiny scrape rendered it dangerous .Once it started to retract while I was on it ,my hand was trapped by a rung and the roof of the trailer ,my weight prevented me from freeing my hand which was jammed . kind of funny now scrapped it ,(we called it the ladder of death)
  9. Thanks! comes in handy while watching "russian dash cams"
  10. ๐Ÿ˜going to wait until the CDN dollar gets closer in value to the green back
  11. ya I second that nigel come to the ECR ,the dollar exchange should help with the sale.
  12. I have always driven mine up ,the first time I hesitated and took my foot off the gas part way .- it refused to restart up the ramp . So drive it up but ......DO NOT back off the throttle ever at all not even a little ,because the clutch will disengage and then you got problems ,remember it is not a torque converter so you don't want it to slip . My method is once the fronts start up increase the throttle steadily but just enough to maintain momentum ,release the throttle as the car 'brakes over'. Original clutch and I have been doing this for 6 years.
  13. new one's are on sale now in Canada ,perhaps in the U.S. as well $599 CDN a set at the dealer ,factory I believe. The only way to go ,because when they are done they are done. unless its a clean up for selling
  14. Canada border personel do not care how long you are ,its not their mission.

    This trying to "do it yourself" is a recipe for total dependance on a care giver - from a wheelchair. live longer and pay the young to do it, they need the money anyway consider yourself the 'educator' passing on your knowledge and expectations of how a job is done, while you supervise from the shade.
  17. thread starter use CDN or CN for canada not CA. I thought you meant california as well
  18. ya know if they want it they will just punch a hole in the bottom of the tank.
  19. I have seen plenty of these 'euro' vans on the road ,always memorable because the slightest hill drops their speed more then another RV . On canadian mostly 2 lane highways they always have a long tail of vehicles waiting to get by.
  20. Why can't we go to California Dave? We are not commercial. Are all (old) diesel pick-ups pulling trailers banned? I'll go but play stupid ๐Ÿ˜
  21. Was wondering myself good news get well Nigel
