yea its the unions fault...WHAT? check yourself Adam! the workers gave wage and raise concessions 4 years ago. the strike was because hostess stopped paying into there contracted pension plan months ago and then wanted the workers to give it up on contract. it was workers getting tired of giving things up and if it meant the company would close. then it probably was going to happen anyway it was just convenient to blame the union. i have been in a union for 17 years and have seen the good and the bad but remember unions brought you a 40 hour work week, (and everyone loves weekends) overtime, safer working conditions, fair wages, and the end of child labor. Yea im sure the UNION was why the company failed!

Onan 5.5 won't run unless on jumper cables or jump box
vegas style replied to mineurbiz's topic in Toyhauler/ RV Talk
i would check the power cables from the batteries to the gene. sounds like maybe a bad ground. with the jumpers you are creating a new ground path. it would also explain having battery power elsewhere. just a thought. -
its a monkie day!

i like you came on and straightened some things out jake thank you. i still would like to know what statistics (arrests, tickets, accidents ) warranted the crack down? i cant remember a post about anything like that. its a slippery slope and this could be the start... how many people bring guns? i for one need to put a cali legal 10 round clip to be compliant (have i forgot or grabbed the wrong one... yes) how about your favorite beer (the one in the Glass bottles) or your atc 70 that they cant find a vin and decide to impound it. you might not think you have anything to hide tell they start digging thru your stuff. and when stuff like this start happening you will think back to the first bit of easy harassment (its for your safety)... big brother comes to dumont! lets try to not let it happen. -
Halloween weekend 2012 trip reports and pictures
vegas style replied to Dumont Dune Riders's topic in Dumont Happenings
what a great 6 days at dumont the XP ran perfect as did all my upgrades. 190 miles most were fast dune runs with rails or xps. took some go pro and will get a video together soon. was able to meet up with a lot people and still didnt get to see everyone i wanted to. if my supplies hadnt been getting low i might have stayed longer. had a great time today with neil and the idaho dune guys 40 miles rough fast duning and a couple of photo shoots. cant wait for the on board drift pictures. the xp needs a wash and a oil change
