    weight distribution system of not?

    I tow with a 2014 Toyota Tacoma, V6, 4WD heavier suspension. I use an Andersen hitch to tow about 4,000 lbs. it is relatively easy to remove/replace, and has provided a stable ride in strong crosswinds, potholes, washboard dirt roads and our interstates that provide a rough, uncomfortable ride...

    Propane safety

    I should have made that point more clear. Yes. Using propane while moving is perfectly safe. No problems. We park 20 gallons of an explosive in our garages - gasoline is an explosive according to California law, when in a confined space. We have an open flame, a water heater, in the garage with...

    Propane safety

    I agree. That is what I do. Use propane while driving for refrigerator, and even furnace if it is exceptionally cold, and I will be stopping for a snack, lunch or potty break.

    Propane safety

    I was a firefighter for more than 40 years and continue to work in the fire industry as a fire origin and cause investigator, which I began doing in the early 1980's. I was a fire inspector also, involved in writing fire codes, and conducting fire research. Gasoline and LPG are close to the...

    Breakout to the Bosque

    I had to reread to see that you were talking about photography and not hunting. Haven’t done much photography for 20+ years since being a part time freelance photojournalist. Trying to retrain myself with digital stuff. My portable darkroom is no longer relevant. Now it will be my laptop, if I...

    Breakout to the Bosque

    Wiring size issue is a concern for actual current passing through wire, not for potential current. Your house has at least a 200 amp service. Only a problem in trailer if one circuit decides to need all 50 amps, which would hopefully trip breaker. May not. Every connection is a potential...

    12v batteries v 6v batteries

    12v vs 6v Batteries come in different physical sizes. What amp-hour rating will you want/require? You put different size/amp hour in your toyota Yaris compared to your Ram diesel. ET apparently uses one size probably due to the size of the battery holder. Type of battery - sla, agm, lithium...
