Yup ran into the "in use FM station" on my first long trip with my Garmin. Depending on where your riding it's not to big of deal. But the closer you are to bigger cities the more frequent it is. I to just built a cable and splitter and tapped into the Aux input and ran it thru the cable. Actually was clearer too.

If there is already one built in Excell you can import it and convert it. If you cant figure it out let me know I'll do it for you.

Not even sure they put the V-10 in anything besides motorhomes anymore. But only complaints I have read from Ford guys while looking up some pros and cons to gas vs diesel on the V-10 is they have a hole in the fuel tank. Its activated when you turn the key and start pulling up hills. As light as your unit is you could have got away with a F250 I think as GVW on those is up around 12,500. But I know going used you kind of get what you get not a lot of pick and choose. The units we really liked are over 15k so heck even a F350 wont hack it. Do you know how hard it is to find a used F450? That aint been tortured. So we liked a couple of floor plans from Fuzion #369 & 371. Both are around 13,500 (371) 13,700 (369) So add a 1000# bike, gear, propane YIKES your over 14,500 pretty quick. And those are only 39'. So perplexing, we are considering the full time thing and work along program but not knowing if we should makes iard to decide if you would want a 38' unit to live full time in. Or do you want a piece that big sitting for 40+ weeks a year and making payments on it. So do you just buy the 450 and over kill the smaller trailer (truck would only be secondary transport for me to work if not full time RV) or go 350 and have enough.

Yup thats one of my fears if I get a toy hauler. The aborted load. Not sure how I'm going to unload that dang thing either, because only way is to back it down the ramp. thanks to some experienced folks here they steered me away from the Outback toy haulers with the side doors. Not only are they very steep angle to load, trailer is only like 8' wide. My bike is somewhere in the 9.5' total range. So it would have to be angled into the room.

I have the by-pass relays already built. I also make the 3 wire by pass for "keyless" you put your own switch in. I made these for a couple guys who's ignition switch already bought the farm, and they use a hidden toggle switch. all items are plug and play. PM me if your interested. No cutting or soldering these parts plug in to factory harness. I'm thinking all you would need is the wires that use to go to the switch, cut them off and connect those to your wireless rig.

Well have spent 2 pretty full days on a recon mission @ RV show in Tampa. PHEW I'm beat. 400 miles back and forth in 2 days and only 4 counties. LOL Wife had pedometer thing going on her phone yesterday and had racked up over 4 miles, not counting the up and down of stairs. One thing I found out, the bumper pull we liked so much....... garage aint long enough. You could kitty corner it fine for the XCT. But then it limits what else you might put in, say a kyak or pedal bikes. 1/2 ton towable toy haulers are kind of slim pickings. By some folks that I would consider knowledgeable Jayco might not be a good choice. Part of our issue is we want a wall between the cargo and living area. No bike in the dining room. Rick, we did some investigative fact finding on this full time RV thing too. We looked mostly @ 5th wheel Toy Haulers this weekend once we saw what bumper pulls were available. Checked into some workamper jobs I think they call them. Wife and I are many years (prob 7-10) from US social security if there is still such a thing by then. So we still have to have income even after we sell current house. Looking at the units we like, going to need a different truck also.

OK not familiar with "CCC" That particular model we really like. But a new one here is like 63k asking. The one in the link is 1 yr old model and in Ohio priced @ 35k. Still kind of more than I want to go right now, but if they made me a good deal I'd run the Ram 2500 up the pike to get it. They have nice options and the garage in back serves as a separate bed room if the kids and grand kids go too. The gate can also serve as a porch and has like a mesh fence thing that goes around it so you use it like an outside patio deck.

I thought this was going to be a thread about someone switching from android to an apple phone.

We are heading over to Tampa tomorrow to the big RV show. I can asure you I aint buying nothing over about $10. But we have found a floor plan of some we like. It is a bumper pull but we are no where near retiring full time.

Personaly I have not had a bad new plug since the days of Copper Plugs being the big thing. But it is entirely possible. You should be able to pull the plug, leave it plugged into coil and ground it out and see if you have a good spark.

A program called Open Office. I used it for many years, it will open an excell sheet and then save it in its format. Also has similar programs to the Microsoft Office stuff word, power point etc.

Well me crumcast bill showed up yesterday. It was higher than I expected and so I compared to last months bill. The rental cost on the DVR just about doubled, same for the box in the bed room and the digital converter in the office. The DVR and the bedroom box are like DVD player size, the one in office is 4"x2". So if my TV is "cable ready" why can I not get channels on them? It sucks I guess comcast scrambles it or something.

I get upset watching those things. Freakin way to much money for some of those cars. They have drove the price of that type of car way way out of reach of a fellow with simple means. I think back when the DOT Com guys were making it big they drove prices out of site. Hard to believe cars we bought for hundreds of dollars are now hundreds of thousands. These hot rodder shows like the antique guys I dont think are right either. Scam someone out of their stuff for nickles, then resell for thousands or more. As far as my street cars I probably only had a couple go fast jobs. 71 Maverick Grabber V-8 factory car with 3 speed. After I killed 2nd gear twice I put a 10 bolt top loader in it, problem fixed. Car had 302 rated @ 210 hp and car only weighed 2684. This ones gonna sound odd. But had a 73 or 74 Dodge Polara 4 door. It was an ex-police car with a big block. No chrome, single paint duals and mega power for its size. SLEEPER and fun. I was working with a friend on his big block B Body GTX at the time so alot of stuff I learned @ race track with that car helped me get min going.

Cant be no worse than Sturgus or Daytona Bike weeks.

Just dont blast bullets up in the sky and think nobody gets hurt. Every year here in Fla they manage to kill somebody that way. These crazy mostly Hispanic folks here dont seem to understand simple physics. If it goes up it comes down. They go out shoot in the air and laugh and go back in the house. A couple miles away, someones car now has holes in it or worse yet someone collects their stray round in the head while lighting off a fire cracker.

So maybe us Florida folks need to look at a meet and eat in Ft Myers area when you get down. Pretty good burger place in that area called Fords Garage. Could do Brooksville area or over around the Villages area.

Yup, I forget OHM rating. But there are some videos on you tube showing using computer headsets for you helmet. Your biggest issue is going to be soldering the hair thin wires without melting them into oblivion. We have a couple discontinued discount stores here that have headsets for about $5. One of the stores is Big Lots I think the other use to be called Buddys. Dremel tool, some hot glue and velcro. And you'll probably have better sound to boot. Or the other option is just use earbuds and knock out the road and wind noise.

After the big homeowner dishes went away the price of satellite TV just kept creeping up. Cable does the same thing. I had one of the old like 10ft dishes in Oklahoma. Had to pay for a service that would get me network like ABC

Well there is probably 30 or more threads on similar question. Tire age, not just amount of tread. Rear shock leaking-evidence of oil leak. Maybe what the hyd lines look like, fluid color. Hard to remember everything.

Nah they can use the same ole tired V-Max type engine and some new paint and graphics on the 1st gen angular body work and release is as a "new revolutionary" design. Hopefully it would be fuel injected.

Well I'm still peaved off on this deal. But I have calmed a bit I guess. When you look at it, its not much different than say Chevy discontinuing the SS after this year, or that pick up that looked like it was from the 40's they had a few years back that only sold for a couple years. Or any model car they stop making. Only a couple parts may concern me for replacement. Plastics of course, fuel pump and sprockets maybe. After dealing with the RSV and some other things I think there are smart enough folks around to come up with work arounds. Like maybe the fuel pump from an Indian made to work for a Cross bike or something like that.

I posted a comment over on one of the Victory boards. I suggested a rally of the riders at corporate HQ let the big wheels know we were there and when they come out to make a "thanks for supporting us in this change" kind of thing. Give them a:rasberry: big ol raspberry and the finger.

I'm on crumcast. I go thru the call up ***** and ask why new customers get $??? cost and I have to pay X. So then we go around and around and I get my bill knocked back for a year. Then they jack it back up and I have to call again. But I had DSL and it just wont work for me. My some has basic cable (crumcast) and some kind of kody box thing he watches some sports and programing off somehow. I dunno how it works, something like streaming off internet and guys set up cameras or something so when they are watching say a NFL game he can find one on this box thing and sort of see the game. The stuff I saw was pretty skippy and sometimes low grade graphics. Best thing I have seen him find was some 1960's & 70's flat track racing. Hurricane & Roberts ruled

DAMG IT !!!!!!!! Finally found a bike that fits me, handles well for me and is fairly easy to maintain. So now I will probably loose my A$$ on a possible resale. Well at least they have to keep parts stock for 10yr. Bad news is they can charge what ever the heck they want for them because once they are gone....... The way I read it (granted may be some between the lines) Polaris is cutting Victory to spend the money they made selling those bikes to try to keep a "old name" bike producing. But if any of you have priced out those Injuns they are WAY pricey. For a comparable Victory touring bike the Indian is like 7k more. I like the edgy look of the Vic and thats kind of what led me that way because they look different and set out from the crowd. To me a 1980's Glide looks the same as a 2017. I see no design apearence, I realize there had to have been frame improvements. The XCT is a sport bike compared to the RSV. Well once again I get to own a lame duck vehicle. Guess I can add pictures of this bike to the ones of the RSV, the AMC, and my Trans AM.:95:
