    Came home today to find a Gremlin on my propane tank!

    Took me a minute to figure out what it is!
    After installing a standby generator I wanted to make sure to keep the tank on the full side.
    Propane company just did it on their own.:banana:
    Now I have to see how I can access the info.

    Leaves me out. Don't have, nor want data on my cell phone as it has a tendency to lead to Zoombie Cellphoneitis

    I'd throw a javelin at a gremlin.

    Yeah! We put one in a couple less than 2 years ago. I had laid in a hospital and wife was told I might not make it. I got to thinking what might happen if I weren't there. The generator was one of the first things I thought about as our power seems to go out way too often. I vowed to get one installed and we did. Love it.

    Yep Gary, we love ours too, we got it mostly to prevent the basement from flooding if the power goes out.

    Always wanted a Gremlin (AMC). I had a '72 Javelin AMX. Dad had a wrecker service and had one show up with blown engine, interior torn up, 1 year old with 3200 miles on it. Was a stolen recovery. Owners declined it, dad bought it for $25 from insurance company. I put a 350 chevy with auto trans. 69 Camaro bucket seats and lake pipes. Mine was maroon.
