    Got new appliances after 18 years

    Yes Appledude, and Mark, the indicators should say either protected, or reset if tripped. Some have two, three, or four leds's. if they protect ac/dc/and or Lan/cat/Sat cable connections.

    Got new appliances after 18 years

    Got new appliances after 18 years

    Got new appliances after 18 years

    What is the worst dishwasher you've ever owned?

    I can't say that any have been bad, yet, but; I have only had four. A 1989 Maytag portable, which was excellent, a Whirlpool built in from the 80's, which was as well, a 90's Whirlpool which was the first electronic, lasted until 2011, but was stuck on normal, and our current GE profile from...

    A New All-Wheel-Drive vs. what I currently have: Old School Four-Wheel-Drive

    Re; GM, etc. The GM cuvs are all similar in platform underpinning. Regardless of the brand, we can't be sure of where the parts are made, so get the one you prefer. My brother in law didn't want one from China, so he bought, not leases an Acura. If leasing,it doesn't matter what you get...
