RE: US 19 between I-77 & I-74 in West Virginia

Take US19. It's a nice 4 lane scenic drive. You'll cross the New River Gorge Bridge was for many years was the world's longest steel single-span arch bridge. Stop at the bridge overlook. There are 2 Walmarts on US19 if you're looking for an overnight stop.

RE: Pulling boat behind fifth wheel?

Driving a train is dangerous,....
So are knives. What's your point?
My point is it's dangerous and that is why it's illegal in many states.
I see 5th wheels and trailers swaying all over the highway every time I'm on an interstate. Attaching a boat or trailer behind would only increase the danger for all of us.
Wait...maybe I'll tow a 5th wheel and a boat and a utility trailer carrying a golf cart.

RE: Fuel Price Gouging

We just returned from a 10 day trip in our class A and were returning to Tampa. We were taking 19 South from the other side of Tallahassee where fuel was about $3.44 per gallon. As soon as we hit Perry, Cross City, and Chiefland, the prices ranged from $3.69 to $3.88 for regular. As soon as we got past these three little towns the price began to drop back towards the $3.40 range. Don't even want to mention the price of diesel.
Fl. has a hot line to report this type of thing. It is the dept of agriculture I think....
What exactly would one report???

RE: Towing

I use magnetic lights from Harbor Freight and install them on my roof. Lights are often on sale for $9.95. I run the wiring through an open door and then out and under the hood. I also bought a flat 4 pin to round 7 pin adapter to plug the lights into my motorhome from Walmart for $10.

RE: Can't move shift lever out of park.

This is caused by the steering wheel key interlock. When this happens lift your front wheels off the ground with your jacks. This will relieve the pressure on the steering lock and you'll be able to move the shifter out of park.

RE: Lucky

Luck plays a major part in financial success in life.
Beginning with birth. One could have been born in a country or area where one would almost certainly not have the start in life that we do in the USA.
Not to mention good health, much of which can be contributed to luck.
