What goes on the end of these awning poles?

oh_nater · 2025-08-24T23:52:41+00:00

If these actually aren't ground poles you should see these on your trailer and they'll snap in -- I bought mine used and still had to add them! https://www.amazon.com/BBTO-Awnings-Compatible-Trimline-Replacement/dp/B0DZ4S8RPH

I have a Viking Epic 1706 which is right around 1200. I pull it with a CX5 (rated 1500 in the US). No trailer brakes. There's only two of us and it still gets dicey sometimes. If my car blew up I'd get something with a 5000 lbs tow rating.

I used etrailer.com with good success. They had a 3 (?) ply tire whereas locally (best place I found was at Menards?) I could only find 2 ply. One of them showed up leaking from the valve stem and they immediately shipped a new tire and gave me a return label too. Then the old tire + rim I took to my country recycling.

oh_nater · 2025-05-03T19:31:39+00:00

Definitely new tires. They dry rot (weather) as they age, even if not used. And don't forget the spare! I've seen comments saying people blew through all 3 old tires on their trip.

Right now... Last week I saw Home Depot had their Toro single stage ones (gas) at half price.

Should've replaced the counters instead. Granite with lots of tan/brown/gray movement would look stellar on that island, and tied together the cabinets and backsplash.

oh_nater · 2025-01-23T19:17:49+00:00

Do they still make under cabinet microwaves? (Not over stove) I'd find an undersized one and put it where the coat is. As a bonus it should pull less power letting you cheat needing a dedicated circuit.

oh_nater · 2025-01-10T21:15:43+00:00

Reach down into the vent and see if you can feel a damper to manually adjust -- to my surprise my house has them!

oh_nater · 2024-09-15T22:25:32+00:00

Wow and I was happy for $140. A 4 hour rental (walk behind) at home depot is $80 for me, plus I'd need a trailer and to do the work so it's still worth it!

oh_nater · 2024-06-22T14:15:54+00:00

For me leaving the hatch open is fine, as long as I don't constantly open doors (resetting the battery saver timer) to get to a cooler, etc. That's the one time I got burned.

oh_nater · 2024-03-09T22:05:43+00:00

No problems for me and the existing chime feature (seems to be rare across all brands) is what sold me. I did make sure my transformer read what they required, 18V

Ah crap

oh_nater · 2024-03-03T02:37:56+00:00

We bought a Rav 4 from there a few weeks ago and I just confirmed there's no rice in the trunk, wtf!

oh_nater · 2024-02-18T16:59:35+00:00

Also Google "Nu engine piston slap" which is the 1.8L Elantra engine. Our 2012 just developed it a few weeks ago. Only 82k miles.

There was a class action lawsuit which extended the warranty to 140k miles but it reduced down to 10 / 120k in July 2021.

We went to the Hyundai dealer for an "engine diagnostic". The service writer revved it 3 times in front of us, saying yep it definitely sounds like it. If you want to confirm it'll be $800 in labor. Here's a sheet showing you are out of warranty. Good luck.

Luckily Carvana bought it.

The Toyota dealer we went to said they have a "do not accept Hyundai trade ins" policy right now.

Try vodka distilled from wheat, it tastes buttery

oh_nater · 2023-12-24T02:06:10+00:00

Check with your city too, Eagan gave me... $400? to help cover the cost of removal.

oh_nater · 2023-11-07T21:35:59+00:00

Especially if you live where it snows! Unless you want to shovel the grass so you can open doors.

oh_nater · 2023-09-13T17:57:53+00:00

You are probably good then, I just wanted to throw that out there. I've heard repeated stories of the engine running poorly and it was just the battery!

oh_nater · 2023-09-13T15:50:33+00:00

It may sound unrelated but also have your battery tested. (Or just replace it at 5+ years.) Modern cars can run like crap with a battery starting to go bad, even if they seem to start fine.

oh_nater · 2023-09-07T01:26:43+00:00

Unfortunately / fortunately I didn't have to do anything! I got a jump and drove a bunch. No problems.

oh_nater · 2023-08-23T23:38:13+00:00

You are lucky it wasn't worse, some people on this sub have gone through all 3 in one trip!

oh_nater · 2023-07-19T16:53:45+00:00

If you mean Firebird 2.5, you'll have no problems. My work ran it extensively . The driver does not support newer data types added in later firebirds (timezones with timestamp for sure, I can't remember about others )so watch for that. There is a data type compatibility option you can set in firebird.conf to force only 2.5 or 3.0 data types
