Hey Doc, welcome to the forum. Folks here from all over in all types of transportation accommodations. It's a pick your poison on the first go around as far as vehicle type. I'd guess only a few get it right the first time so don't stress, relax and know that what you think you need isn't always...

The negative reviews tell the true story of this product. Save your money. Wrench off the negative wire from the battery and your done.

I have no idea where your located or where these shops are. Based upon my first hand experience, I've had minor and major repairs done in 7 states in the last 7 years, always got at least 2 estimates and never been turned down. Delays do to scheduling yes, but never turned down by a dealer or a...

Some work better with certain carriers equipment than others. Some are really pricey with no better performance than cheaper models. All depend on at least a weak signal so there is something to boost. Cities and large towns have decent signals to begin with. None work in "no signal" areas...

I purchased and used several sizes and types for parts storage in a large warehouse inventorys. Tin of any grade is flimsy and easily bent, those with lids have rounded corners. You can buy good sturdy metal bins but prices are stupid high and weight is an issue. Shop these folks. MSC direct...

No first hand experience with a one-stop shop... I did all my own work after I had a local guy sand blast areas that needed it and then cut/formed frame and body panels where needed and had them welded in. I just googled "Auto Body Rust Repair in Akron, OH" And found a few. I'm sure there are...

Reflectix®, the folks that make and market this stuff say on their website that it's insulation value is R 1.3. So for R16 your gonna need around 12 layers. I use it in my northern S&B around my forced air furnace ducts in the basement. Also, in the unheated attic crawl space, tacked overtop of...

Yes, why not, I mean there are 26 states East of the Mississippi, all with their unique quirks in history and tradition, just like the West.

Yea, I smile when I read someone just spent $$ and time because they are convinced they need to quiet down that noise before insulation and finished inteior surface. And then the end product has all sorts of stuff rattling around in the back when they drive down the road. But hey, maybe it's...

Great replies. Gives me some ideas / better options than I was thinking. TY The cutting and bending of a metal support mentioned above got me to looking to ace hardware. Couldn't think of the name of this stuff until I saw it. Easy enough to snip the size I want Then bend some ears to hold...

Yikes ! $399.99 In a boat, indispensable. In a parked vehicle, a little pricey. But thanks for the link it's always good to see what folks with money are buying.

Freelander, thanks for the link, those are better than what I'm trying to use. Sofisintown, I hadn't considered fastening the stove to the counter. I like it. Maybe to not lose the counter area I could fasten .... no maybe just drill a hole to align with the stove base holes and just insert 4...

So NR, I travel from Michigan's UP to Houston and all parts East. I am familiar with google's process and agree with your approach, totally. I'll PM you for details.

Before I reinvent the wheel I thought I'd ask how everyone keeps their single and two burner propane stoves fairly level and stationary when in use inside your vehicle. I have both the single and dual burner in Coleman and another popular brand. I don't care for the light weight nor the lack of...

FWIW, Haven't been able to find anything where a "Tile" will help with a stolen vehicle. It's all about finding your wallet, keys or laptop not a moving vehicle. Below is from users.... "Unfortunately, it's not really feasible to track your car with a Tile Mate. If your reason for purchasing a...
