    Little Guy Silver Shadow Finish?

    I have been going over a area twice. First with a low end buffer - wipe clean - re-apply and wipe by hand - have found that a very light dusting of flour helps finish off that final wipe to get the haze off. Saw a shop doing that on an airstream. I had a Silver Shadow before the 560. No...

    Little Guy Silver Shadow Finish?

    You can see in my picture that my TD has the aged look. Bought it used, 2008 and was never walbernized. I tried the walbernizing and then I tried the Flitz. Flitz works much better so far from what I can see. Don't have the whole TD done yet, but what I have done looks pretty good. Will...

    Yep, another blogger

    Read your latest blog - I spent years traveling in the States - Much like you, I saw the inside of manufacturing operations, motel rooms, rental cars and many suppers where I ordered as soon as I sat down so it wouldn't be a hour and a half dining experience. Toward the end of my traveling time...

    Hit a deer last night.

    GinaNbob - I put my kayaks on top of a Jeep for years - about 3 years ago I modified a trailer with a rack system so I could load them at waist level - much easier - of course that doesn't solve the problem of when you are taking them on a camping trip and have the TD to tow.

    Hit a deer last night.

    Interesting about GinaNbob's comment about it happening in 3's - as it usually seems to happen that way. Upnorth here we call those runner's - they come running in out of nowhere and you have no time react - normally they hit you - At least no one got hurt.

    550 / 560 Used Vs New (2009 560 Ultra Vs A 2015 560 Ultra)

    Having bought used - one of the advantages of ordering one new is that you would be able to get exactly what you think you want. Notice the think in there. Until you have one, you are not really sure what you need versus what you want. What you use versus what you have. That said, there...
