She was just saying that the music her generation makes sucks when compared to what her dad likes, which is all over the map, since he's a keyboard player and has played in many bands. OTOH, the kids can leave their phone somewhere, go somewhere else to get in trouble and retrieve the phone later. Ward Cleaver would have a hard time being a parent, these days.

Just had the A/C part of mine done a few weeks ago. Furnaces part was done at the tail end of 2015 and I had the A/C coils installed at that time. I couldn't afford the compressors outside at the time because I needed $4000 worth of electrical upgrades to be able to hook up A/C. So far only one day of trying it and it wasn't particularly hot, just really humid. Man, what a joy! Totally worth the expense, as long as it lasts at least 10 years. Reactions: its phillip

its phillip Audioholic Ninja Feb 5, 2010 4,560 0 113 fort worth, tx May 10, 2018 #18,989 Our old system was the one that came with the house, so it lasted approximately 16 years. I hope this one lasts as long. We couldn’t afford getting a nice variable system so we stuck with single stage. We should still see a significant difference in our utility bills however. Went from 10 SEER to 16 SEER Reactions: fuzz092888 and KenM10759

K KenM10759 Audioholic Ninja Oct 8, 2015 3,058 0 113 Spencer MA, USA May 10, 2018 #18,990 In New England, the HVAC regs are different. We don't get the heat you do for the lengths of time you do so mine are 13.7 SEER. My contractor pointed out that in areas of the south they (manufacturers) can't sell anything below 16 SEER and in some areas, 17. My units have a label on the them that they're illegal to be sold in several states in the south. Ours are a little cheaper. I have Bryant, a division of Carrier. I wish I could have got Trane, but just out of my budget. Reactions: its phillip

its phillip Audioholic Ninja Feb 5, 2010 4,560 0 113 fort worth, tx May 10, 2018 #18,991 I’m not sure what the minimum requirements are here but I did receive quotes for systems ranging from 14 SEER up to 20. We got an American Standard system which is the same thing as Trane as far as I know. Old one was a Carrier. All of the quotes I got were for American Standard or Lennox. That wasn’t by my choice or anything though.

People don't know how to haggle, horse trade, you know negotiate. Where selling or apparently buying, putting OBO on an item means you get one offer to be either accepted or rejected. No counteroffers, no nothing. Makes the whole process boring and laborious.
