So, I spent the weekend installing a hitch, a brake controller, and a seven-pin connector. Looks good, but won't be sure it all works until we get hooked up in Necedah (this week!) There's an additional wire coming off the brake controller that I don't think I need. The black one goes through...

I got an online quote of $430 from Progressive for Total Loss Replacement/Purchase Price coverage with 500 deductible on a 550 Special. No claims in last 5 years. I think it may be worth it, even at that price, for the first year or two. Still looking around. Our regular insurer, Am...

So, what year was your Element? They got a horsepower boast in '07, I think.

Yes you are, and I imagine Mr. Betsey couldn't be happier about that. Was referring to a recent phone conversation w/Mr. Winch in which he offered the perspicacious advice about the Alcan covers. Nah, but I like botanical references for screen names and passwords. I've never seen a ghost...

==>dope slap<== Right. +11 inches on the length. Like I haven't studied the specs page in the manual 28 million times. Thanks, Pttywgn. Luckily, that's the dimension where we have much more play. It's going to fit transversely across the front of a two-car garage. I'm counting on the 550...

Haha. Not quite, but very close. However, the Tear and the Element combined cost more than my parents' first house.

First set of build pictures having arrived, the countdown to pick-up at the nest has commenced for our 550. Spent the weekend rearranging the garage because -- having measured 18 ways from Sunday about a million times -- we have persuaded ourselves that the 550 will fit, just barely...

As Mr. Winch explained it: You can get an Alcan now to protect from all the dings and road rash, or you can get one later, to cover up all the dings and road rash.

Pat -- We're also going to be using an Element ('07 FWD) for our TV, so interested in your hitch setup. We need to get our Element hitched and wired in the next couple weeks. What hitch did you get and who installed? Did the Necedah crew need to do any remedial work on your electric...

kewl. thanks, dan.

Sounds like a great idea. But a quick look at the site's FAQs says "no trailers" ??

Regrettably, that video sort of skips right over the hard parts -- which Jean W. charmingly describes as "running around like a madwoman." I'm looking forward to emulating that.

Still experimenting on other things, but really hit the sweet spot with simple chicken thighs on the Cobb. Adorable Wife does a to-die-for marinade with jerk seasoning ingredients. Instead of starting the fire in the Cobb, I use a chimney to start the coals, up to a dozen Kingsford briquets...

My mother and grandmother used the expression in a similar way, but rendered it "Bless its's heart" [with the double possessive gender neutral pronoun], so it worked with kids, pets, old men, people on TV, blooming flowers, heart-warming newspaper stories, and on and on, for both comfort and...

NB back to $380 this morning at http://www.sunnysports.com/Catalog.aspx?op=gcsSearch&Term=northern+breeze

Thanks for posting yesterday evening. Was able to put in an order for one at the lower price last night. Apparently they keep switching the price back and forth. So maybe it'll happen again.

Google maps shows the address in the ad is a commercial intersection with a "Loanmax" and a "TitleMax Title Loans" on two of the corners. Sad if it's being sold by a pawn shop. :(

So shouldn't it be DCLXVI?

seisgatos, por favor.

I saw that bungied fold-out stand, too, on the prior American distributor's site. They had an excess inventory sellout on them as they shut down. I was kind of tempted, but ultimately didn't pull the trigger, even at the closeout price, because it looked insubstantial and unsteady. Haven't seen...
