Hey Don. No that's not really what I was looking for. More like this. This brand is what the dealer sends their vans out to get but wanted to know if anyone has used a brand of shelving like this that give me pros and cons. I'm not committed to use what the dealer suggests and can do what I...

I plan on buying a Chevy express cargo van and would like to set it up with shelving. I would prefer to get some type of kit installed since I don't have the time or knowledge on how to install my own. Does anyone recommend a brand name of shelving? I see quite a few online and wanted to get...

Can't wait till next year. In the meantime all of you harley riders get ready and the boaters (me included) can start looking forward to a long summer. Bring on the warm temps and let's shorten that cold muddy season for those of you up north.

100% Agree with this. Unless a business is obviously gouging I will not complain about what they are charging. I know what goes into running a business as many others do on this forum. The deserve getting what they can for what they are selling. They have families to support just like we do.

speaking of next year...I've already been thinking about it and man am I going to OD on riding! Big time!

yes that is very sad. I hate thinking about any of these businesses struggling due to low snow. In fact, if it wasn't for all the regulation, high taxes, etc. etc. most businesses would be able to weather the storm so to speak or lack thereof.

I noticed numerous tourism billboards on 294 by O'hare last week advertising Wisconsin winter sports with lots of snow shown in the graphic. First thought I had was it must be really bad for them to advertise mid winter like that, especially when there was NO SNOW. I don't remember ever seeing...

Nope, I'm good. Of course I will look at what's new but... Next thing that will entice me to buy new is power steering. Come on Doo...you can doo it. :) I came from Yamaha and I miss EPS. Love my Mach Z but a sled like that with power steering would be simply awesome FOR ME.

Happy Bday!

Wow! Happy for you and really miss being out there

SW burbs of chicago we had lightening and torrential rain for about 30 mins with hail last night around dinner time. CRAZY

Thanks for the explanation Abe. I always wanted to be a farmer but it's not in the cards for me now. I'm trying to plan my eventual retirement as it is. No desire to start over again at my age.

Good advice. The stations up north all have ethanol free premium so that's what I use.

sorry if this gets off topic, but Abe what is a typical lending term for equipment like that? What is a reasonable amount of time to get that paid off then operate with that same equipment? In other words how long will they last before having to trade in or purchase again? I have no clue and am...

That's funny. I actually do this at the end of each season. After boat season I drain the tanks in my boats right into my vehicles. I let my truck run down to around a 1/4 tank and pump it right into the truck and use it up. Every time I fill up my boats I add sea foam so I know the gas isn't...

Abe, It is amazing how everything in our economy is so interconnected. Mike1970. I agree with you. Minimum wage jobs are not designed to be able to put two kids through college and support a family of 4, but the left wing marxists want to see that as a thing. I have kids come in who don't know...

Good conversation. Couple of points. What jonesin said is so true. In our industry we call the process of increasing all wages and not just the minimum wage compression. For example, when MW goes to $15. The staff making $15 already and have been there for 6 months or a year doesn't like the...

Paul, I understand how you feel and agree with you wholeheartedly IF there is gouging going on. Maybe there is in some or many industries. I find myself somewhat defending some of the comments here solely because my business is facing inflationary pressures that is unbelievable in so many...

Maybe I misunderstood your post but are we drilling or are you encouraging us to drill baby drill?

and who are we to decide what is excessive profits or too much for a business to make? if you think you are being gouged then move on. I wanted to buy a truck during covid. The high volume dealers in the Chicago area were charging as much as $20k over sticker and I refused to deal with them. I...
