    Autonomous Vehicles

    My bet is, AVs will hit their stride in 2050; albeit not in the east. Finger on the pulse says drivers will be "in" the trucks. Think airplanes.

    New van consideration

    Is there a particular reason why you want a diesel? I love diesels, however, the expense and complication on the road (full-time) limiting a mechanic source. Diesel out the gate retail is quite a costly venture (in some cases $15,000 more for diesel -- U.S. makes). Towing/pulling heavy *a lot*...

    Dog Trainers at RTR 2018?

    Temperament behavior should never lead ahead of the owner. In doing so, the dog will scan, seek and protect. Tight lead to your left side and you walking slightly ahead; you're the leader. Train when you stop, they sit. He will challenge your boundaries of command. Stick with it. Your tone of...

    Road Recommendations? Help

    Upon hitting Reno area, drive during the daytime as nights likely dip below freeze weather (daytime 40's/50's). 95 can have more truck traffic so isn't as desolate as 93. Unless an unforeseen cold storm hits Reno, you should be fine. When I travel, I always have a plan b and c in place due to...

    Insulation in Central California

    We need an overall picture. What are the temp's in the summer where you might be? There is a general consensus among experienced vanners not to insulate unless your winters are very very cold. If you are following the *nice weather* year round, don't insulate to the extent of inclement weather.

    thoughts on these for first dwelling?

    My guess would be the headlights, along with the grill, had highway pitting. Those years, the headlights are nearly impossible to restore (personal experience), so they may have opted to replace. Good luck with shopping!
