    Mercer WI area info

    well been doing all that and then some since 1999 so don't think it will change other than the scope of work I would be willing to take on being solo and not having a crew. Still its a big decision to pack up and start all over being the new guy in town, building relationships with vendors...

    Mercer WI area info

    well this might be a long serious search. Inventory is low, prices on the higher end and offers are made within days of listing coming out. Its not like we can run up after work every other day. Do people really buy a house site unseen? that is just not in my wheel house. Found one of interest...

    Mercer WI area info

    thank you for the insight about the area. About the price of things we have been looking not serious for awhile, just collecting info and it seems the price has gone up the last few years. I cant help but wonder if it will adjust a little better in the near future or just continue to rise. Told...

    We have not spent much time in Mercer over the years other than riding through, looking to change that this year. The wife and I have started looking at areas for a house to use for vacations and eventually relocate to. Just trying to get some info about the town. For comparison we have spent...

    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    the wall mount direct drive is nice and quite. the only issue I have seen with them is on 18 foot wide doors and some 16 ft doors is wind. there is no center rail to keep pressure on the center of the door. a strong enough wind will make the top center of the door flex some.

    sled lifts

    like the steel castor, much better than the plastic wheels I saw on one. Thanks for the info I will look this guy up. snoden I am curious about how you load with a lift? seems the castors would not be big enough to get on the ramp or are you loading open trailer?

    New truck

    well found a 2020 F250 with the 7.3 gasser to go look at and take for spin this weekend. Curious to see what it is like behind the wheel. Hope the sales person has a since of adventure lol. Not sure I want to spend the $ to order one so looking at some slightly used ones to start with.

    New truck

    I have not driven the 7.3 yet to compare with the 6.2. I like what I have read about it but no real world experience feedback from anyone I know. Curious if you came from a 6.2 and have any first hand impressions between the 2.

    New truck

    good for you! In my past experience the diesel pulls the best however that comes with a cost up front, fuel, and maintenance over the life of the truck. For me the tow miles just were not high enough to justify the overall expense. I run gassers now for the business and personal use and just...
