RE: Dodge Gearing
My TV has the 4;10 gears and other than the MPG's I'm happy with it.:)Towing a 9000# TT I get 11-13 and non-towing I get 15-16.Not much different in the MPG's but I didn't buy it to go too the grocery store.:B

Red Light Cameras
Heard on the news the other day that Charlotte,N.C.is looking @ reinstalling the red light cameras and speeding cameras.They took them out in 2007.One of the county commisioners has brought it back up and says the reason is for safety.There isn't any evidence whatsoever that this reduces accidents @ these intersections.As a matter of fact when they installed them years ago they put them up @ high traffic areas instead of high accident areas.The money from all the tickets is mandated by the state to go too the school system.Could it be another way to raise revenue instead of safety?I'm all for safety but in my opinion this isn't about safety.Any other cities out there with these,and do you think they work?

This was discussed at length in this thread so please pick up there if you wish after reading the comments.

RE: Stopped at a Super Wall-Mart today..stopped selling RV items
Your second statement Jim is a very valid point.Don't think I've ever walked in and walked out without buying something else.

RE: Who is rich and who is poor

RE: Best inexpensive leveling device
If you use the leveling blocks then you need to stair step them.This will leave you just enough to put a chock onto one of the plastic blocks,if you get it just right.Thats why I use boards appox 5ft to 6ft long.This give you a margin of arror..Depending on the length of your TT you may need to follow the advice that I posted before in this thread.I've seen alot of folks putting down wheel chocks and they don't do it properly,but I can say I've learned alot over the past several years from this forum,and its helped me.

RE: Simple Electrical Question
This is been going on for many years.Kinda like your toilet paper.Over the top or bottom?It doesn't matter.It all depends on which angle the cord is coming into.

RE: Any reason to not consider a 2006 5.9 CTD Dodge MC 3500?
Looks like a good deal too me.When I purchased ours about 3 yrs ago I paid 28k for it and it had 5k on it.It now has 36k and I love it.We tried to deal on a megacab 3500 in Ga But it didn't sit around.Sold before we could come to a deal.

RE: One Thing
Batteries,quarters,and kids DVD's.The batteries are expensive @ the camp stores,quarters are hard to come by when you need them @ the misc.machines,and the grandkids get a little upset @ night when all the DVD's are adult movies instead of batman,spiderman,and etc..

RE: Happy Holiday Cherokee NC
Grammis,No offense but I didn't see anyone in the above threads bad mouthing the cherokees.Some spectiulation was made as too maybe why they have closed this C/G.I have been going to the cherokee reservation for 40 plus years to visit and camp,And it has really changed.In my opinion they have let the taste of the mighty dollar change the area,and are getting away from there heritige.And BTW I do have cherokee blood in me,and my granddaughter is 50% cherokee.:)

RE: Driving through Atlanta GA
We were there last weekend down near the racetrack and everytime I drive threw there I don't like it.All larger cities are like this.I guess thats why I don't like the city life.

RE: Happy Holiday Cherokee NC
We have been going there every year for the past 8 yrs and it is the best in that area if you ask me.The land down near the pool does belong to the owner who lives in the C/G and he is Cherokee.It wouldn't surprise me if they did have other plans such as putting up condos or another motel,seeing as they have alchol in the casino now and the location is really close to this.
