Found paperwork, replaced back in 2001, so we got our money's worth. Gonna go look for new one today.
Man....trip planning, shed paint, dishwasher, Legion things....gonna be a busy two weeks for me!
I rarely used the dishwasher, but several years ago daughter did, and let all the smoke out, so it doesn't work anymore. I figured I'd get one when I sell the house, if I live that long, since I usually just hand wash, don't have a lot to do most of the time. Kind of re-thinking that, way prices are going up if I wait much longer a cheap one will be a few thousand bucks. Pensions with no cost of living increases suck these days.

Well wifey made up my mind and told me what she wanted. Went to Lowe's and ordered it. Installed, 3 yr warranty, removal of old one, and some misc items they need for install.... $670 otd. Only problem is I may not be around for the install, so wife will get one of the boys to come over to be here.
Then went to Harley shop and bought new rain suit. Old one is 15+ years old and starting to feel a bit stiff/crumply.... thinking it may be at it's end. New suit, $100, is bulkier than the HD suit, but that's pretty much what they had. Suppose I coulda shopped around a bit more, but I want it done with. So I may use the rain jacket as a riding jacket for this trip. Double duty!
