    Holidays are for the slaves……..

    The OP would probably appreciate very much the emergency service 'slaves' out there that don't get to take the regular holidays. Tow truck drivers, ambulance drivers, hospital staff, cops, utility repairman,etc. Say if he were to crash his truck into a telephone pole on Xmas or New Year's Eve.

    Through hiking with vans

    :unsure:...I saw the thread title and thought that someone was tired of having vans breakdown and having to hike a lot.

    Yes, I've noticed that and some things are marked higher than what a new item would be. I think it may be because they don't have people that can invest time to price check tons of items. The GW where I live now (Sierra Vista,AZ) gives a 10% discount to seniors one day per week. Where I used...

    Tools and Weight

    I'd guess most of us aren't carrying tools that are used to make money:). I try to do all of the maintenance and minor repairs on my van and carry 2 toolboxes that weigh about 40 lbs. total. Also misc. pullers, jackstands, 2 jacks, diagnostic gear (fuel pressure tester,VOM, code reader,vac...

    How to build it right, the FIRST time!

    I'll vouch for the fact that most vans are hard to work on. I'm trying to trace a misfire on my '93 E150 and it's a royal pain accessing stuff. I will say that the older Dodge vans were a bit easier because the engine sits farther back than on the Fords (and I guess Chevys,too). Doing a tuneup...

    (Oops.Forum lag) @bullfrog: The property manager's scam is similar to a guy who collected a USFS stipend as a camp host but worked a full-time job in a nearby town. He lived in a Class A at the CG and drove his toad to the job. He was never there during the day and gave a free campsite to a...

    Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage (open enrollment ends Dec. 7)

    Have you had experience using it when traveling? That's a big factor for nomads. It seems a health care provider would just be able to charge traditional MC, so no big deal but your 20% might be pretty high.

    Medicare vs. Medicare Advantage (open enrollment ends Dec. 7)

    ^But is that true for all MA plans? There's probably a lot of variation. Also, I wouldn't necessarily take their word for it but would check the 'fine print'....YMMV

    street parking

    Quiz the residents of the complex for their experience with the area. See if there are any self-storage businesses nearby that you could rent at a reasonable cost. Checking with police to see if it's a secure place would still apply. Or maybe a private parking space/garage you could find on...
