    Have you people ever? Or is it just me? When I drive down the freeway. See stores. The one thing I habitually look for is the loading docks. :)

    I always look at parking lots or docks and think of how much fun it would be to put a truck to it. I may not have turned a mile since 2008, yet I still have the thoughts of "what if"

    Did some T-bones and taters yesterday. Nice med-rare. Sorry no pics.

    What is this garlic & lemon trick you speak of? Not skipped any pages like some. But missed it somewhere.

    Also gave you thought about using a mini-split? Bit more expensive than a window shaker. But only need a hole big enough for the tube with the lines in it.
     
    650cat425, G13Tomcat and WesternPlains Thank this.

    I would then need to repair the hole in the wall where the other 'window' unit was placed. Even more expense. Easier, and much cheaper, when the time comes. Just put another 'window' unit in there.
    I admit. Those split units do seem pretty neat. Would like one...but.

    Yeah it's what I'll probably do if/when I do my DIY RV. Thst and some DIY ducting. It is possible to power one by solar. But I'll most likely go quiet gen. That way I can power more items. Heck. Maybe both.
