Re: OY...

~$3.80 a gallon for diesel right now here in N. AZ. I believe diesel is always more expensive in the winter because of the added anti-gelling agent when its cold.

Re: Awning for Penthouse Sprinter

If it is anything like the awning mount on my 03 E-350 SMB I would avoid it at all costs.
