That would seriously depend on 'what part' of California you are talking about. In the cities and down south where parking and traffic are huge factors, you bet. But the farther north you go the more trucks and large SUVs you will

I have to agree with your take on this. We were recently sent an 'offer' by the local water district to buy 15' of frontage along our property for a new water line that will be a major service upgrade for about 8 homes. My is

The jewelry store I worked at for a decade still sponsors a hole in one at the annual golf tournament next door. Get a hole-in-one on a specific hole and you get a Rolex. We had our own insurance policy for that to cover the cost of the Rol

When I was a kid I moved into my grandparents house and my uncle showed me a tunnel in his basement bedroom that he had started when he was a kid so he could sneak out. He turned 18 and moved out before he finished it, so it was my turn aft

These are usually lead gen sites. Done well they can take over smaller areas outside of major metro areas and drive sales leads to those larger companies that can travel vs the small local guy. I live in a small community and it has always

So very much this. I went through 4 30 minutes meetings with a vendor for a client of mine before I had enough with them and told them either give me a price or I'm forever done with them. 4 meetings just to get a price! Then they thre

We do this in our house. We have intentionally done this based on the use of the room. Laundry room/kitchen/bathroom, light that sucker up. Living room or bedroom, not so much.

I grew up flying a homebuilt Taylorcraft. There is no way I would have gotten out of that plane at that altitude. Those things will glide forever and can land on almost nothing. One of the biggest problems they have for new pilots is that t

No, it isn't. Most, or at least a very high percentage of independent truckers bid for cargo runs. Your cargo needs to get from point A to point B and weighs X amount and needs pickup and delivery at certain times. Truckers bid on the

Not only do containers not pay the same, but containers to the same location often don't pay the same. So many variables and often the driver is the one that ends up getting screwed in the process. I completely understand why so many s
