Default Vinyl fencing

I am planning a fence project. Anyone with info on vinyl fencing? Is
it easy to install?(lot has a slight grade to it and one side of the
yard will have a curve to follow a driveway) Are there any brands to
stay away from? Are there any good websites that show installation
instructions? Any information at all would be helpful.

Thanks
Eric

I put 15 - 8' x 42" picket style vinyl panels around 3 sides of my
inground pool 2 years ago. I had a wooden picket fence there for about
15 years before, but it was rotting away. I was able to use the original
4"x4" treated posts without moving them. A couple of the rails had to be
shortened by no more than 1/2" to fit between the existing posts. I also
bought 30 - 8' 2" x 3" studs, and slid one into each vinyl rail for more
strength. The 2 x 3s fit perfectly, except for shortening to the length
of the vinyl rail.
