It's not raining here today. But the humidity is higher then normal[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Hoss, I brought it up to the wife to have movers do the moving[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] But, she gave me the BIG "NO"[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] So, the movers are my brothers and brother in-law. I don't look forward to moving 16 years worth of accumulated stuff[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses (AKA: Dancing Queen), and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.

And he loved FBK and bowed down to Hoss and gave unto him his sheep, and all was good.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

This iweek in the forum, these topics, especially the first one[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] has really stirred some people up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]


Originally posted by: confusedbuyerhmm, think PSD. well, this darn camper i have is 11' 5", with an extended overhang (north/south bed). man, is it HEAVY, on a dually! and with the enclosed trailer, i'm really not much further ahead than i was with my 30' TT and quad deck. somehow, i thought i'd be a little lighter, but it's barely noticeable. only all the lost trailer/camping space is noticeable [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
Didn't I mention this[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] when you first talked about going to this set-up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
no doubt, we knew we'd miss the trailer space. thought i'd lose some weight tho & the pulling would be better. BUT, we can haul all the toys much easier now. like i said before, if there was a PERFECT set-up, we'd all have it.

still getting the mushroom treatment (kept in the dark, and fed a lot of ****).
I know exactly what your going through[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] We have our own little drama going on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] A underwriter is flacking on their job[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
geez, that's brutal. getting insurance coverage should be a no-brainer. i've already got my quote, and the cheapest is ..... $2600!! YIKES!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] well, there's lotsa buildings to insure.
It just plan stinks[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Our insurance on the new house is about $1100 a year. You guys are way high[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
my current house is 3400sq' + 600'sq detched shop/garage. we pay $1100 cdn for it, with earthquake coverage. the new place has 2 houses, + 1250'sq shop with 12' ceilings & only a volunteer firehall. no proximity to fire hydrant either.

Back to the topic that this great thread was started for[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] the 7.3 PSD[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

This morning I went out to start my truck[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] and it wouldn't turn over[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] there was hissing, chimming and clicking going on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Check the red/green idiot eyes on the batteries. The passenger battery was red[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] the left green[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]. Hooked the battery charger up to it and was able to get it started. Took it to the local Ford dealer, they checked the electrical system. Right battery had zero, notta, zilch CCA's[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] and the left had 410 CCA's[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] They didn't charge me for the test or their services to exchange the batteries[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Got 2 new batteries for $200. Both have a 4 year unlimited replacement warranty[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I was happy[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

My window is also working better too[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
wow, GREAT warranty. so, what's wrong with the batt. with 410 CCA?

Considering it should probably be 650-850 CCA. And considering the PSDs are running two (parrallel, so you double the CCAs). Not sure 410 would have cranked over my Daewoo. It had a 650 CCA battery. And that was only 2 liters at like 9:1 compression. Not 7.3L @ 16:1.
