    HVAC Insiders- Daikin & Goodman

    I am up to six years on a Goodman heat pump unit I had installed in a house SE KS I own. My own house has a Trane heat pump unit. Maintenance repairs have been about the same (one warranty claim each) in this time frame. Have been looking at several new construction houses in a three county...

    Speculate what happened to this trailer ramp door (salvage)?

    New never used 2022 16' Wells Cargo trailer is $12895 at a dealer in Eugene, OR right now. MSRP was $15295. I would speculate that the reserve is $4K or more. BIN price of $9999 seems very high compared to purchasing new if the 16" is equivalent to this one.

    The coolant I used to use is no longer available and my stash has ran dry.

    O'Reilly Auto Parts still sells conventional green in their own brand, about $17.99. Usually next day availability if not available at your local store.

    Any lawn experts? Suggestions for planting grass in northern KY.

    No one has mentioned it yet, but you need to aerate your acreage. I like to do it right after a good rain in spring and fall.

    Oil and spark plugs

    AC Delco R45TS should work well in your engine. I used 10W40 in my GM vehicles of that vintage with good results.

    Replace soap dish in shower

    Home Depot seems to have several stainless style dishes to choose from. I would look for one with drain holes vs solid. Many are ship to store vs available at store.

    How many people prefer to use the dealer for services while under factory warranty?

    Am doing that on two Subarus currently. Cost of oil change isn't that much more than my independent, and Saturday service is a plus. So far, so good.

    Fast food dynamic pricing?

    I'll be sticking with my hot dog and drink at Costco or Sam's for $1.50, I guess. No dynamic pricing there. Philsophically, how does that work for the $5 Biggie Bag? Sometimes a $6 or $7 Biggie Bag, at the whim of the owner?

    Sam’s messed up my OE wheels

    Get the quotes and see what happens next. Insure that Sam's receives a copy of the estimates. None of us can probably accurately predict exactly what Sam's might do.

    Thread for photos that 100% do not violate any Terms Of Service, not political, not too lewd, no gas price pics etc.
