    Choosing A Dog

    I am seriously thinking of getting a doggy to keep me company. The problem is that I know very little about dogs.  Any tips would be welcome.

    Ahhh The Pleasure

    As I sit here in my camper on the west side of Leadville, I am serenaded by a jackass with an open frame generator running. Don't you love it when you find a perfect little camp spot that is quiet. Then you start unfolding everything like you do. All setup, great! Then along comes an idiot with...

    My Avalanche

    I just wanted to give my experience with my Chevrolet Avalanche as it has almost been a year. I had a Mazda Minivan I bought new in 2004. I owned it outright and in my naivety thought I could use it to pull a 6 x 12 enclosed cargo trailer.  No. I couldn't. In a rapid series of events I bought a...

    Algodones Dental Care

    Last night a front upper tooth snapped off at the gumline. I now have a big gap at the front and it is a miracle that I am not in any pain. When I say at the front I mean right in the front!! Very noticeable and difficult to adjust to. A little background.  I ground my teeth to the point where...

    Predator 2000 Generator

    This was not what I wanted to purchase. I was after a Predator 3500 but they were all sold out for miles. I decided to settle on the 2000 and see what would happen. The price was $500 plus tax and the cost of a years 'no questions asked' replacement warranty totaling $606.  I used it solidly...

    Trying To Find A Job And Failing Badly

    I think the purpose of this post is to just relieve my frustration a little. I am all ears for advice but I am not sure there isn't anything that I have not already thought of.   :huh: At the beginning of July I finally managed to sort out my car problems and hit the road.  The fantasy was to go...

    2004 Mazda MPV Minivan - Tupelo, Mississippi

    Sadly I have to say goodbye to my 2004 Mazda MPV Minivan.  I bought it brand new in April 2004. I am also the only driver it has had. I have babied it over the years.  It has a genuine 75,000 miles and physical appearance I would give it 9/10. Everything is perfect. There are zero problems. I...

    Review Costaway Water Heater.

    I wanted to have a shower in my converted enclosed cargo carrier but due to the way that it is laid out I nearly gave myself a stroke trying to figure out how I could do this. In the end I managed to figure it out and I will show you what I did. 3 problems. How to hang a shower curtain, what to...

    Gamma Bucket

    I am fairly knowledgeable about living on the road but this has just never come up for me.  Now it is something I think I want to use. I built a shower in my converted cargo trailer and it works great. For water I have an old Home Depot 5 gallon bucket I found. I drop the pump into that and off...

    My Cargo Trailer Conversion

    I thought I would try to show some of what I have done so far to my enclosed cargo trailer conversion. It is made by Triple R Trailers in Booneville, MS. I chose a 12 x 6 with a ramp rear door. I was governed by weight and money considerations or I would have got something bigger. I own a Mazda...

    Lifespan of a Honda 2000

    I bought a Honda 2000i brand new in 2005. It has had very little use and last year I had a real problem with it that was solved by installing a new jet. A very expensive new jet made of plastic.  I love this thing.  I am going to give it an oil change but it is running pretty good. It hunts just...
