    This is the way to do it. Bring the monkeys with and sit back and watch.

    Maybe I'm just a control freak but I don't like help with doing that. Just seems when someone else is doing it it always goes down the toilet on the road.

    You have never taught a kid to do something? You ALWAYS double check the work so that it is to your satisfaction. I am teaching my kid to secure stuff but because he is so much lighter than I am, I always get a few more cranks on the strap. Not that he did it wrong, he just does not have the ##### behind him to get it as tight as I like it to be.

    The young 'uns need to be taught the right way, if they can get the placement down then they are half way there.

    I hope you're not serious. It's kids wanting to be involved.

    Spent almost an hour filing the claim. Headed for the body shop Monday for an estimate. I am supposed to hear from the adjust or Monday afternoon or Tuesday .


    We will see as the truck that hit me was pretty ragged out, so I am hoping their insurance is worth a #### but never heard of Hallmark.

    Unreal Ron, signs, flags, not to mention a bright yellow truck! I'm glad I have a junky old 2000 Star. Buying a new one seems to get you hit.
