    There is a light at the end of the Maytag Bravos tunnel!!!

    My local rdc shows 0 in stock of the mvwb725, but there is a box to check "the factory." There appears to be over 900 in stock there.

    The Inevitable has happened - No more WP agitator washers...

    I recently got in my new models with these new "agitators." I haven't hooked any up to watch the action yet. Even the low-end Amana has the new agipeller and is listed as "HE."

    Speed Queen Front Load Washer Help

    We are a Maytag dealer. We are a "self-servicing" dealer. That means when someone calls that bought elsewhere, I do not have to service that product and sometimes it means if I do an unauthorized warranty job on something not bought here, I don't get paid. The reason that a lot of...

    auction coming up, toasters, ironers, etc LOOK

    I just came across this auction. It's in Hellam, PA outside of York & Lancaster, PA. If you're into toasters, coffee pots, etc LOOK>>>>> MAKE SURE TO LOOK AT PHOTOS IF YOU'RE INTO THIS. I'm too busy and it ain't my cup o' tea (so to speak!!). CHECK IT OUT if this is your thing. Well...

    The buzzards will swarm soon

    They're closing the Sears store here in this round of closings. They'll start the liquidation sale on Oct 31. We've had a Sears here since the 1930's when they were more a catalogue store on main st. On one hand, I feel for those that will lose their jobs, that part is tough. I heard in...

    Maytag Performa/Herrin transmission oil seal question

    John, I believe these brakes are supposed to be dry. If they have oil, it's coming from the tranny. As for the motors going up in smoke, that really hasn't been what we've seen with these washers. It's usually the pump going bad, seizing up and smoking the belt. In turn that smokes the motor...

    ATLANTIS DRYER

    We've replaced quite a few of these timers for this exact problem. That's the direction I'd lean.

    Asked to take delivery for house next door

    If it was me & I did not know the neighbor, I wouldn't sign for it. Too much liability on the signer's end. However, where I live out in the country, I'd sign for 2 of my immediate neighbors. I know them well. Some of the other folks, I have never met (the places are rentals and I'm on a...

    All ready have turned the heat on

    I'm hoping to not turn the heat on until October. I like the house a little cool to sleep and I'm not home during the day. My pooch would rather it be cool as well. He really hates the hot & humid weather. I just ordered propane about five minutes ago. When I filled the tank in February...

    The All Important Summer BBQ Poll

    I mostly use charcoal. I have a New Braunfels pit that I love, but after over 15 years of hard use, it's about to be retired. For quicker charcoal cooks, I'm using a POS cheap small kettle grill. I always use a chimney to light the coals. Lowes had a special last labor day on Kingsford...

    1-year old Whirlpool Dryer rattling

    Whirlcool, there is no rear bearing on this model. It uses felt on the rear of the tub for a bearing-type application. Also, there are no drum glides. I think you have this confused with a Frigidaire-type dryer. I've heard plenty of these make a sound like what is being mentioned. I don't...

    It has been brought to my attention (final post)

    I wouldn't let those that complain about your pictures get to you.  Just be yourself.  Who cares what others may think.   Look at me.  I am a single, hetero, republican (but lean more to the libertarian on a host of things).  If that isn't the antithesis of the majority of members here I don't...

    Fuel Cost Caculator For Home Heating

    One of the guys I eat breakfast with just got his annual supplement of nut coal to back up his oil furnace.  His cost for 1 ton was $235 with a $50 delivery charge added on top of that.

    Fuel Cost Caculator For Home Heating

    John/Combo, they probably do not own their own tank.  Most propane companies charge more to fill their own leased tanks then if you own your own tank.  It's sounds counter-intuitive, but it's the truth.  Also, if you lease your tank, you are obligated to buy the propane from the company you...

    Fuel Cost Caculator For Home Heating

    Propane is closer to $3 a gallon than $2 I just got the 500 gallon tank fueled up for the winter & it cost me somewhere around $1.80-1.87/gallon iirc.  We're close the the anthracite region and a bunch of folks around here use coal.  We used to, but it can be dirty.  Coal dust can get...

    Raymond Loewy - 120th birthday

    Here is the only shot I have of the post-flood Studebaker hawk.  You can see the water/oil line (there is a car repair garage next door & they had open drums of waste oil that got flooded out into everything) was right up to the mirror.  The garage slants down in so the water just built up...

    Raymond Loewy - 120th birthday

    We (my brothers, my nephews, & myself) bought my dad a '61 Lark 2 door for his 70th birthday a few years ago. It's a 2 door, 6cyl, 3-on-the-tree. At our old store where we still rent a storage garage, we have a 63 GT Hawk. It was a project car but it ran when we parked it about 20 years...

    A real "plain Jane" Maytag HOH dryer

    Definitely BOL.  I'm having a brain day, but I keep thinking DE90 but I could be wrong.

    Anyone want to buy a brand new 50+ year old Chevrolet??

    I was just at a farm auction this past Saturday.  They had some barn find cars.  One was a 1935 Caddy 2 door.  Barn condition, it brought $66,000!  The 1932 Plymouth split window coupe brought $12,800 and it needed A LOT of work.  This small collection of barn cars had people from quite a few...
