    VP Debate

    If you didn't watch the debate, you missed gems like Kaine early in the debate saying, "You really are Donald Trump's apprentice," clearly thinking it was the hum dinger of zingers. It wasn't. It came off as being well rehearsed and part of a zinger checklist, one of many canned lines the...

    Buying a sprinter van, 2500 vs 3500?

    The seats in an 06 and earlier Sprinter are not too dissimilar from a wooden park bench. The later models aren't much better. But if you want to drive more than 6 hours without fatigue setting in or being sore all over get an Oregon Aero Softseat. It ranks second only to my bed, and just ahead...

    VP Debate

    Wow. Tim Kaine is kind of a footstomping, whiny little brat. Not once did he fail to interrupt Pence and try to take over the discussion.

    That's rich. Pun intended.

    How start courier business?

    A service that directly competes with the one you have a noncompete agreement for. Whether you take the old existing customers or go with all new customers is irrelevant (usually) irrelevant. A noncompete agreement is a form of Restrictive Covenant, a clause that adds limitations to the...

    Obama is a busy man. When he took over in January 2009, the total national debt stood at $10.6 trillion. When he leaves it will be right at $20 trillion. That's the legacy he'll have - the $20 Trillion Man. Where did that extra $1.5 trillion go? It's not like it was spent on world peace or the...

    The Trump Card...

    Oh, I dunno. Newspapers are supposed to be brokers of honest opinion. The anti-Trump endorsement came off as more of an insidious attempt to sway voters away from electing the candidate of their choice. After reading the editorial, I’m now even more convinced that we need a political outsider to...

    Verizon new data plans

    I have an HTC One M8 Android phone. There's a little adapter that plugs into the USB charging port that an HDMI cable will plug into. You can do that to mirror the phone's screen on any TV or computer with an HDMI input. In your case with the iPhone 5c, you need the same thing, it's the...

    Front end wander and shake ....

    It could be the steering gear (knuckles, rods, rack/pinion) are worn or loose. Or axle (straight) is bent. But 96% of the time is an out-of-balance issue. However, with centramatics installed, and the vibration still occurring, a computer balance of the problem position can indicate a...

    Heating / Cooling davis instruments air-dryr

    I've had plenty of times with the Espar where I'd pull the window coverings off and have lots of condensation (or when especially cold outside, ice) on the windows. I have the van well insulated with board and canned foam, all covered up with Reflectix and the seams covered with silver foil...

    Ford Transit question.

    A) since the carrier you drive for will take on a mini Transit, it would seem they have the answers you seek. B) instead of trying to "get away" with using a particular vehicle, why not use the right to tool for the job?

    On the rare occasion that I want to watch something like a football game on the phone, I just use an HDMI cable and connect it to the TV. But I usually just watch it on the TV (Dish Network) or on the computer. The magnifier thing, though, that's awesome.

    Opinions on 2006 Sprinter 2500

    I think if you pay $17,000 for it you are paying about a $5,000 premium for the emotional and sentimental value of the seller. Zero rust (and I mean zero, zero) would bump the price from $5,000 to $8,000. The low miles bumps it up another $2,000 to $3,000. I'd want to see the maintenence...
