South Dakota, PMBs and Bank Accounts, Oh My!
DanZemke replied to Mark Noakes's topic in Sharing the Fulltime Lifestyle
I'm saying that banks and credit unions are risk averse, especially for small, retail accounts. And that their first-level customer support folks don't have the power to override company policies like: a residential mailing address is required to open an account. IMO, the RV part is incidental and the Patriot Act is an excuse used for their desire to minimize potential audit hassles. -

Mark, The Patriot Act is most likely, just a convenient excuse. IMO, the root cause is probably that they don't want your business. Is there anything you could do, that would increase your attractiveness to them? Dan -
I was born in a Lynwood hospital and grew up in Downey, as did all of my brothers and sisters. Thank you for deescalating our conversation. Dan

Sorry you feel that way about California. It has lots to offer that is unrivaled in the US, with the possible exception of Alaska.

Please try to understand that bigotry and tolerance are orthogonal.
-
Cute. Nice try. You said: "So you are intolerant of his perceived intolerance? " No, I'm not intolerant of his opinion, I'm intolerant of his silly Cali bigotry.
-
Yes, I'm intolerant of his Cali bigotry. And I would be even more so, if he claimed my sisters, that live in California, were whores. And your point is?
-
You traveled into California for the first time, and didn't get any Cali stuck to your shoes? I grew up in California and all of my relatives still live there. My father worked for the USPS and my mother raised me and my 5 brothers and sisters. Perhaps you haven't heard that most people no longer think it's cool to be a bigot. Grow up. bigotry: prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

Some people feel better, when they have the power to vote. Even if their vote has no impact. Making changes in a large organization, from the bottom up, usually requires tremendous personal effort by many. Compromising, lobbying and buy-in, with many others. For me, member voting is not a salient difference between the RV clubs mentioned. However I respect that others may have a different opinion.

I think our next door neighbors had a pair of flamingos next to their front porch, when I was growing up in the fifties. One of the boys, who was older than me, showed me one of his father's Playboy magazine for my first time. I think I was still in elementary school. Who knew? Not me, then or now (until your post). 😇

Thanks. There are so many ways it could have turned out worse for you and your wife. I'm glad it didn't. 🙂

rynosback, If you haven't already used it, here's a site that can be helpful in deciding on type and price range. In addition to the vast inventory, it's very easy to narrow down your search by providing search parameters that are important to you. Like price range, day-cab or sleeper, year manufactured range, number of rear axles, brand ... https://www.truckpaper.com/

I googled: pdf 2006 Volvo 780 electrical schematic and received this as the first link: https://www.volvotrainingsupport.com/-/media/vtna/files/shared/body-builder/wiring-diagrams/april-2017-p6605-modular-22622040_05_1.pdf Like most Volvo service manuals, it doesn't indicate clearly which years it covers. Good luck!

It must have been frustrating to watch it come down and realize there was nothing you could do until it was over. On the bright side, I presume your cars were garaged. 🙂

Is This Site Slowly Going By The Wayside?
DanZemke replied to 2gypsies's topic in General RV Information
Enough!!! As an experienced senior, I'm disappointed in your attitude. Color me hurt and unwanted. I'm LEAVING!!!! Just kidding. I agree with your post on the polite and helpful dimension. And, IMO, there are other dimensions that are contributing to our decline. More competition, photo size restrictions, ease of posting photos, ineffective and stale advertisements, and cell phone access. -
I called the phone number, you provided above, and happened to get Grace. We had a delightful short conversation in which I mentioned your complementary post about her. She was pleased. As for South Dakota, yes, they do provide coverage in SD. 🙂 Thanks!
-
Alas, that challenge isn't unique to electrical advice. 😏
-
Congratulations! And many thanks for sharing the potential value of an insurance industry insider as an advocate. Do you know if the Lazy Days Insurance Agency also caters to those with a South Dakota residency? (not asking for you to call them about this if you don't already know)

Hotter it gets the colder our mini splits

Linda, I agree with your sentiment about serving. And applaud it. But ignoring traveling cost, for someone 1300 miles away, is not reasonable. An obvious middle ground is to defer required service. Something like you must make yourself available for SD jury service, within the next 12 months. BTW, I have served, as a member of a Federal jury. We're both a bit off topic. The subject is about South Dakota jury duty.

Mike provides some great information, often with a bit more detail than I need. But his main message on this is not a "detail". Thanks John !
-
Thank you!
-
WoW! Just installed it. Amazed (and happy) to see "Big Rig Friendly Campgrounds" as a section 🙂
-
Great, we agree. Please consider working with Mark to incorporate it into the Resource Guide rather pinning to the heading page.
-
I applaud the thought! But I'd prefer that you take advantage of Mark's website (IMO, a hero in the transition to HDTs for RVers). https://www.hhrvresource.com/
