  1. I'd like to have one like the one from the wildcat site. But I couldn't find one like it for sale. On another note the table top drops right thru to the floor the way it is now. I can't figure out any way it would fit as the center piece for the bed. Even if it did make in to a bed it would have to be for a child as the total length inside the booth is right at 5 foot 4 inches.

  2. In the last week I got new tires, replaced the old nonworking cassette player with a new cd player, changed oil, drained and refilled transmission twice, repaired the generator muffler, filled and flushed out water heater and tanks, replace rod in water heater. Checked for water leaks in tanks and plumbing and fired up water heater to make sure it works. By the end of this coming weekend I hope to get a rear carrier put on and get the one leak I found in a gray water valve fixed. The only thing I have left is to give the fridge a once over to see if it works. I might go do that now.

  3. I need to get away from ethanol. I've heard for years that it's hard on seals and needle seats. Although my Corolla runs fine on it and gets 30 to 33 mpg on it. Two of my lawnmowers have had issues with the carbs where they have leaked filling the crankcases with gas. I put shut offs on both so I can now run the carb bowl dry when I'm done using them. I'm thinking maybe the 30 cents a gallon isn't really worth the hassle in the long run.

  4. It's a function that this type of forum layout allows. But the individual site owner decides whether to turn it on or not. Just like the "warning points" that show up under your name. They aren't activated, and apparently the "like" button is not activated either.

    So ignoring it is your best bet :)

    OK thanks for the info.

  5. I know I've changed how I drove it on this tank compared to the first couple. This one I probably averaged 50 MPH on two lane roads. Where those first two tanks I was in a hurry to get home after a long day and was running 70 and 75 on the interstate. And with the automatic doing a lot of down shifting to make it up some pretty good hills and maintaining that speed. I also know that I topped it off both times on this tank so I know I got just over 16 mpg.

  6. I slowed down on my latest trip. I also put regular gas in it instead of ethanol. I drove 160 miles and it took 9.9 to fill it back up so I got right at 16 mpg. That's a lot better than the10 mpg that I getting running 70 to 75. My brother swears that all ethanol is is a filler and the 30 cents a gallon difference is made up by better mileage you get with straight gas. Any thoughts on that guys?
