OOPS !!!!! SORRY ABOUT THAT LAST POST!! (I hadn't even done any "toasting", yet !!!) (I know!! I'll blame it on YaHoo!!!) heheheheheh.. Anyway... I KNEW I...
Darci, I still have both my `99 and `05 GVs. The 99 is parked in the woods on our land and is overrun with mice. However, the mice problem is greatly reduced...
WOW!! That sounds like a neat home, Lillie !! You will have to send the group of photo of the completed construction. I finally had a chance to go to the...
Soooooo.... I just got back from driving over I-70 west of Denver. The roads were icy, snow-packed all the way ... with intermittent snow!! Besides the fact...
I was told, back in ’02, to set the lower right lever (internal/external vent intake) to half way between. This provides a mix of internal and external air...
Darci, Being an ex-resident of the area just south of I-70, west of Denver, I know all too well of which you speak. Honestly, it was likely so cold, it...
Thanks, Kelly !! I knew you'd have some answers. Yes.. it was rather cold .. although NOT below 0. I am definitely looking for better tires .. better...
Oh, had it been below -0-, you'd have found a warm building in which to hover in the nearest unoccupied corner until it got warmer. I recommend Idaho Springs...
I was under the impression that there was open and closed only with that control. Are you saying that it is variable? I have the original equip card that...
My mechanic was the one that told me about it. I/we complained about not getting any heat out of the heater. He told us to set the vent lever halfway and it...
I have to agree with Kelly about the tires. Except I run 215/70's. After more than 40K miles, I still have 12/32" tread depth. Good for another 5/32's in...
Thanks!!  $165 per tire?? That includes everything ... valves, balance, installation, etc., and free rotation and warranty?? HATE wally world. Thank...
I like the light weight in snow, GV rides on top of deep snow and doesn't get high centered. Also, you can always throw a bunch of weight in it. Only thing can...
Hey .. well, it HAS been several years since I've been to this Discount Tire place. I am not overly impressed with Big O. Maybe I'll give them a try. ...
Arlington, TX. Smack dab in-between Dallas and Ft. Worth. This is home. Born-and-raised, so we're back. I never was impressed with Big O, either, FWIW. Kelly ...
My biggest complaint about my GV is that it is too light weight in the winter time when I am trying to maneuver over slush and snow and ice .. etc. So, I got...
I use 2 wallboard type buckets filled with sand. It makes a big difference. I got the new empty pails at Home Depot. You can get snap on (hit with rubber...
Thanks, Vic !! How much do you think the pails weigh when they are filled with sand?? WHERE do you get the sand?? Darci ... snap on ... upside ... will ......
They are pretty heavy, I never weighed them, but now I ask my son (a big guy) to load them for me. I estimate at least 100 pounds apiece. The sand is at Home...
i need a set of cross bars for my 2000 GV so i can put a couple ladders on top to start my new job. anyone looking to sell theirs? anyone know where i can get...
I am a poor boy and needed bars, so I took hardwood 1X3's and used wet leather/rawhide to tie on like the old boy scout deal (knots, you know). When it dried...
I'd betcha some whittlin' would take care o-dat right-chere.... Kelly who spent 60 minutes taking crumbling foam off the rear of the OEM Mercedes floor mats...
Well my 2000 GV is going strong as it turned 180k. Had some issues with Oxygen sensors, it is an expensive car to fix but it runs like new... It still hits 80...
Cool....I'm around 170,000 on my 1999. Replaced all O2 sensors a few months ago. Still starts like the day I bought it. Got a little valve cover leak,...
How did you guys know that the 02 sensors were going bad? I've had intermittent check engine lights come on for the last couple months that bring up an...
