    In The offseason we upgrade The rooms. We're replacing hand me down T.Vs from a friend who owns a LaQuinta that gave them to us 2 years go. 11 this month and 10 next month and all of our rooms will have brand new T.V.s. Half the rooms have new furniture from last year and in January we''ll spend another $9500.00 and furnish the rest of our rooms with new furniture.

    Yep. I saw similar prices in the $150 range.

    My mechanic passed away and he had all the stuff at his house. Problem is when you have an issue... Then you have to get the tire unmounted, send it back, ride on something else for the time being, wait for a replacement... Or just buy another. When you get them at the shop it's nice to be able to take it back and they can figure out the labor/logistics and get you a replacement without question.

    Last go around I bought tires and took them somewhere and got a good install price ..

    Local shops (the good ones that don't wreck your stuff) have been charging more if you didn't purchase tires from them. Up to around $42 per tire to mount /balance/ recycle the used tire. Since I have to drop my TPMS sensors before unmounting the old tire they complain and charge you for a TPMS rebuild kit too $15-25 per wheel. So by the time I get done they want to charge $60 a wheel. So add up $600 for tires, $240 to mount/balance/TPMS kits/recycle old tires. $880 included mounting one of the used 265s that came off onto the spare rim as well, so factor all that and the price is roughly the same. I've been buying tires online for about 15 years or so, and I just recently found it to be just about the same price if you do your homework.

    Now if my mechanic was still around I would just purchase my own tires and have him install. He had the machines in his garage and he was really reasonable on $$$
