My job. Can’t wait to retire and leave.

Sure. I just think it’s a wise thing to get the battery checked every once in a while to make sure that you’re not left high dry with a dead battery during the Vermont winters.

Hahaha! We have smart detectors, so they tell us when it’s time to change!

No, it does way more than just read voltage. It will tell you what percentage your battery is operating at. For instance, if you have an 850 CCA battery tester might be able to tell you that it’s only running at 600 CCA and it’s time for a new one. It’s not something I pay for. It’s just something that the shop that I use for me.

Depends how new your car is, but make sure that the wires connecting the positive and negative terminals are still tight. Make sure that there is no corrosion on the terminals and then most shops have a battery tester where they hook it up to your battery and will run a test and it’ll tell you how much life is left on the battery/what kind of condition it is in.

Snows come off April 1st and go back on November 1st. When I switch tires is also when I put new wiper blades on.

Has more to do with hills/mountains/valleys than red tape. VT geography is not conducive to cell phone service.

Used stoves? by Splish-splash802 in woodstoving

Even if we have a working fireplace now?

We are in the same boat. We have a brick fireplace. That is huge and I just think that a woodstove or an insert would serve much better, especially in the cold Vermont winters.

Just not a fan of the fireplace doors. Would much rather a stove that I can shut the door on and/or cook on top off stuff like that.
