The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I have never checked this particular guy out, but I depend on YouTube for all repairs, even those I intend to hire out. I find that researching the project allows me to talk more intelligently to the contractors, ask tough questions, and weed out those who probably don't know what they are doing, convince those trying to scam me that it is better to go on to a different mark.

One caveat is that I would recommend watching several posters on the topic, and reading any comments below. Not all YouTubers do it right, and multiple videos can help prevent you latching on to the wrong approach.

FWIW,
