    I don't want to mention how much ours was... It was so we can run my dads home dialysis though. Overkill for a good reason

    Another great thing about the LP generator...The wife can start it with ease...first a slow pull fills the combustion chamber with propane..then one moderate pull and it starts, every time..she was amazed and relieved..

    That's a very good reason to have an oversized generator. If I needed one to run a life support system, I'd get one of those auto-switch generators and large enough to run the house.

    This happens to me even in the summer time. If I'm slowing down and I hit a bump the right way, the ABS kicks in and I don't stop in the distance I was expecting to.

    Yea, it kicks in automatically after 8-10 seconds and then auto shuts off when the grid comes back on.

    I can't say that happens often to me, but I've had that experience before once or twice. Makes you quite nervous and makes you feel helpless!

    Abs is for people who can't drive. A stick should never have abs. All automatics should

    just finished spreading 40lbs of rock salt, and 180lbs of sand on the driveway. Steep driveway is steep, and the Mrs car couldn't make it up before. And it will all be washed away tomorrow...

    I find in a lot of vehicles, I end up shutting off the traction and similar things. Basically they are just controlled by computers trying to guess why a wheel is slipping and usually don't help much.

    I need to do the push button ABS mod. ABS and VSC make it awful to drive in the snow.

    I blast up to Sunday River last night at 6pm. Once I got out of RI the roads were fine, all the side streets here are still a mess

    Got a link to a how-to on that? Last time I just pulled one of the fuses. I don't have VSC though.
