Hello, I need to make a ball screw and ball nut to 0.0001" accuracy

How has the Hotel Econoline 350 been treating you lately? Clean
sheets
every night? Toilet in good working order?
The E350 is still in the shop, waiting for me to bring in the last
$300. The Dodge Caravan is getting 22mpg and doing just fine.
Oh, so you're sleeping in even less sumptuous chortle accommodations
than you had led us to believe. I am quite certain a Dodge Caravan
(which does not, of course, get 22 mpg) is much smaller than an E350.

But, you didn't answer the question...does the Hotel Caravan give you
fresh sheets and a clean toilet nightly?

Ran a number of Caravans through the years. 22mpg is normal with the 3.0
and 3.3 engine.

As for sleeping in a work vehicle. Did it for a while. Not an uncommon
thing for road techs and drivers. You same money on hotels, stay close
to your tools and equipment (which helps prevent theft) and just visit a
truck stop or similar to grab a shower.


Sounds like scrounging to me.


Guess you never heard of Truck Drivers, Military crews, or a hundred
other jobs where it is normal to work in an area where your vehicle is
home.

That's something that a younger, fitter man might do for a short while,
but not a 62-year-old recovering coronary bypass and stroke patient who
mistakes rat droppings for chocolates.
