    What is some of your Pet Peeve's

    In NM the handicapped placards have the name and photo of the person it is issued to. Of course this doesn’t apply to the handicapped license plates.

    Electricity Price Increases

    Cell phone internet access is nearly essential for me. Maps, navigation, business phone numbers, etc… are there at the touch of my finger. There’s no such thing as phone books anymore so online lookup is the only option.

    [emoji637] ton Ram-single vs dual wheel?

    A duelly is far better for towing and hauling uses. But not so good in the mud and snow.

    Do you charge your friends for tractor work?

    In the winter I will plow snow down the entire private section of road, helping out 4 additional neighbors in addition to my driveway. I don’t charge for this. But otherwise I don’t have time to do tractor work elsewhere. I don’t even have time enough to finish all of my work.

    Remove the cutter from the tractor and install the rear blade. Buy winter diesel in November. I already have more food around here than I can eat in 6 months. And no more wood cutting since I converted to natural gas heating.

    Natural gas?

    Speaking from recent experience and modifications needed for my late wife, that is a very wise decision.

    Natural gas?

    I know that I certainly could not heat my home and water, and cook for only $45/month with anything electric.

    Natural gas?

    Maybe it’s different in your location, but anything electric, especially heating is substantially more expensive to operate than a NG appliance. NG heating is very cheap, electric heat pumps are not cheap to operate.

    Natural gas?

    I do the same. Natural gas is so cheap. I have a gas stove, tankless water heater, furnace, free standing fireplace/stove, and barbecue grill. My year round level payment plan is $45/month. Nothing is cheaper. Edit: I will add that prior to doing the propane to natural gas conversion I was...
