    For this discussion lets be sure we stay with the same terms ot avoid confusion.

    ACV is actual cash value and what that number is will be determined by the insurance company. If the insured is happy with the value an insurance company has placed on his coach it could be a good deal. If the insured is not happy it becomes a battle.

    Agreed value is what the insurance company and the insured agree the coach is worth (usually by a bill of sale or recent appraisal) and in the event of a total loss the insured receives that amount, sometimes adjusted for depreciation.

    If other terms are used please define them.

    Verizon shut us down last night after reaching 25gb. Useless, you are all correct.

    Just keep in mind that the FMCA “unlimited” plan is highly limited! It is unlimited right up to 25GB/month which does not take long if you are streaming HD (even more if it’s 4K) to reach that limit. When you do hit 25GB the MiFi is “hard throttled” to dial up speeds.

    Dick,

    I would not recommend Bar Keepers Friend for the polished Stainless. It is an abrasive cleaner and will scratch the finish. Great product in the kitchen, just not so much on highly polished surfaces.

    We stayed at Cheyenne Mountain State Park. It’s in a great location and it has awesome views. We had a very long pull thru that was parallel to the road. It has a nice trail and plenty of walking trails.

    verticle loads in perfect world would transferr at a 45 deg angle. Inside the tires you have horizontal support on one side. the pit side there is no support except what you provide. my pit is 30 inches deep this relives the need for fresh air fans. Like Jon did tie your pit wall into floor to help assorb load transfer. I hope the spelling isn’t to bad ;My spell ck isn’t working. Hate to offer up much more so basic the load transferr in a 30inch pit would be 3ft outside tires. I block everything I get under. !!!! Bob

    1. You need to be to conduct a DOT Brake Test prior to taking your Class B CDL Exempt. Fail it or not understand it you fail. The tester will help you through it.

    2. When you do take the test in must be in the vehicle your going to drive….so you need to make sure it can pass the DOT brake test as well.

    3. Not going to go into the Test Texas and what you must and must not study ….. but your not studying the last ten pages. That is just untrue for a class B Exempt. You going to take the same written test a commercial driver applicant will take. Your going to have to read Sections 1, 2, 3, 5, 11 , 12 and 13 in Texas Handbook DL-7C Google it online.

    So please don’t make the test out to be a joke. Your driving a 46000 lb vehicle at speeds of 65MPH or higher. You better be able to stop and anticipate stopping….or your may want switch to a Class A.

    We drive in CA bit… I just left this AM on I 10. We are over… but just by a foot. I haven’t had any trouble myself. I stick to speed limits and on the freeways, I go 62 as do most of the trucks. I was passed by 2 CHP and drove by 2 more shooting laser. Didn’t get stopped.

    I would be prepared for a hassle, but not worry too much about it. All cops in CA have plenty of other crime to deal with as they continue to reduce penalties there
