I'm not sure they'll be able to levy a tax on out of the U.S. sales? Unless the company has headquarters in the U.S? Also correct me if I'm wrong, I believe the bill to charge tax is on the level of giving the states the power to charge a tax and not a federal level? If it's state only then mine would be 6.5%. I pay more tax in Arkieland but that includes county, and some city taxes, generally it's around 9% give or take depending on where you live?

Just another way to make a buck but for people like me who shop a lot online there will still be savings and here's an example. I just today found and bid on a new 42" ceiling fan 3-speed, with the light kit on Ebay. Won the bid at $32.39 which included shipping. Now the same size fan at Wally World or Lowes will run you even on sale $45+. So add 7% sales tax to my fan purchase and you've got roughly $34.66 invested. But here is where I come out, nearest Walmart is 16 miles away, nearest Lowes is over 45 miles away.
How much gas or wear and tear on your vehicle to travel to get the fan even if you found it for the same price would it cost? Nope not me, I'll let UPS wear their vehicles out and the cool thing is if your stuff arrives damaged then refuse it and go get your money back and life goes on. A tax will not stop me from saving mileage on my vehicles and money shopping online.

Will they flash with the standard bulbs in? If so then you need a LED type flashing module to make them all flash. The problem with the OEM flasher is it has to have a certain amount of voltage or amp draw to flash and LED's do not provide enough.

[replyingto=skuttadawg]skuttadawg[/replyingto]Very true. When I was a kid (a long time ago) I can remember going trick or treating in the snow! Last year which was an extremely hot and dry one in Arkieland I took my grandkids trick or treating with the air conditioner on! Also the seasons seem to be confused compared to back then? Last year we had virtually no winter, I didn't even have to cover or mulch my strawberry patch, if it stays above 20F then they have no problems at all, they like the cold except when the fruit is on them and they start to ripen. Last year we had record temps in the summer, some records that were broken went back to the late 1800's and I'm talking temps of 115F!, add that to over 13" of below normal rainfall and it adds up to a statewide burn ban, no fireworks on the fourth of July and lots of fires. Over 2k acres burned west of me and got within 5 miles of my house before they got it under control. Lot's of cities went on water rationing, couldn't find a carwash open any where. But we are making up for it now! Had 26" of snow on Christmas day this past Christmas and lot's of rain, got over 3" in the last 3 days and I have over 5 acres to mow, with some in low spots that you would sink out of sight to mow now. Gardens everywhere behind and not doing well. But the pattern for some time now is like now, cold and dreary, and hot like a blow torch in 2 days? Like I said it was 90F here on Monday.  Last night I ran my central heat and it's presently 40F and raining, normally I've got the windows open and ceiling fans humming and enjoying the last cool nights of spring. JR |

 Yep that's what you're seeing, May 3 2013, snow in NW Arkansas. My wife's friend sent her this picture from NW Arkieland near Fayetteville this morning. I've seen snow in April several times over my years but I can't recall May? My house in Central Arkeiland rain and 39F this morning and rain right now and 44F. I picked a few strawberries yesterday and normally I've already picked gallons by now, they like everything, even the spring nesting birds are confused about this weather? Two days ago sunny, I'm mowing and drinking ice tea to the tune of 90F? Had to actually close the windows and turn on the central heat last night! I'm worried about my grape vines, they are loaded along with my apple, pear, cherry and plum trees. Frost already hurt my early peach trees a couple of weeks ago. Sure glad I waited to plant some of the what is called summer crops? Like I said I'm confused? I remember my wife and grandkids going swimming this time last year. Where is the global warming? JR |

You better give Tv all the hole spacing and specs, don't think the 11 pole will fit?

You'll find in most cases the 12 pole stator is for the GY-6B engine and will not bolt up on the standard GY-6 engine, stay at 11 pole, not enough to worry about on the extra pole any way.
