This time last year (or was it longer ago) the board was buzzing. Has the economy sidelined rec vehicles? I thought in the summer months the board would be busy again...???

Usually slows down in the summer when people are out enojoying their rigs, and then picks back up in the winter for repairs.

Yep; seems we get the 'heater won't work' posts around October.

We have a running joke up here; there's only 2 seasons- winter and construction!

Lately I've found I don't have any "new" problems, now I mainly just slowly poke around at things that have needed attention for quite some time...funny how when you know exactly what needs looked at it can get put off for what seems like forever.

You guys were making me think my mind is deteriorating faster than the alarming rate that it actually is. If you search back to this time last year and further back it sure shaows that posts have slowed down considerably. I miss the buzz...
Are we all learned up? Are our old trucks disappearing? (I know they are in the winter salt belt areas). Economy limiting our RV bucks?
I have enough spare parts in my garage to keep my truck running probably 'till I die. Problem is my body is starting to balk at banging on things with big hammers while lying on my back with neck twisted all up. Seems like these dang tranny/xfers are getting heavier every year. I think they are absorbing moisture or something.
I'm rambling....

Does storing my truck since May counts? Quite frankly, the less i drive, the less problem i seem to get, the less often I seem to come on this site...
