    Parking Overnight while in Chicago

    There is a few truck stops around that let you park for $10/night around the west side of town I know. You could also find a movie theater or mall close by and talk to the manger/owner about parking in the lot for $/month. That's what I did, I couldn't park by my house but 2 blocks from here is...

    inverter help

    Diddo on the answer, solution? Get a cappacatior or 2. Bout $99 a pop from a local Best Buy and maybe $30 for them to install them. It will isolate the inverter from the battery and keep the voltage from dropping.

    Would anybody be intrested in this...

    A 120" sleeper with dual slide outs - nice but you know how much that would be? People on here went nuts when I asked about spending $170k on a truck.

    Would anybody be intrested in this...

    Thought bout it some more, thanks for the input everyone. How bout we add a RV size electric oven??? That way even if it was cold out, it would only take a second to throw something in the oven and you wouldn't be standing in the cold cooking it. Here it is with the oven.

    Would anybody be intrested in this...

    I would guess around 300#, 100# for the box itself and then mounting hardware and then the goods. Didn't we have a discussion on here awhile back about propane? Could use those little wal-mart sized cans or something.

    Would anybody be intrested in this...

    Well I guess we could go with charcoal or electric. Propane was the 1st thing that poped into my head.

    Would anybody be intrested in this...

    An idea of mine, a slide out grill/kitchen set up. The attachment explains it pretty good. I would try to fit this into a 48" or 60" Box. If enough people would be interested I'll build one for concept and then sell some. Thanks *Clarification - this would be something you would install on the...
