@BoxTruckVagabond17 күн бұрын
Sorry I didn't see this. My rate was $100 per month. They have since quit issuing insurance for conversions. I had to register it as commercial and got insurance that way.

Instead of filling the sink with water, buy two spray bottles. Fill both with water and one with a little Bronners soap. Mark the bottles and wash your dishes by spraying with the soap and follow by spraying with the water bottle. Bronners does a great job for washing stuff and it’s biodegradable.

Hi! Well, I don't think I knew enough about it. My water stunk early on. So much so, that I was going to have to buy everything new that was plastic. I stayed at my sister's for about a month and didn't use it, so I'm sure that's what made it stink. I ended up replacing it with just a tank and then it drains out. The tank is 21 gals. and I take quick showers so it does the trick. Sorry it took so long to reply. Thanks for watching.

How did you choose the towing company that you used? Internet search, who AAA recommended, or, did you call a trusted source? I wish there was an app that was more "crowd sourced" with personal towing experiences that could be filtered by vehicle to be towed, location, etc.
