Airstream 2 Go initially will make available through facilities in Las Vegas and Los Angeles a fleet of 20 Airstream International Signature travel trailers, offered in 23- and 28-foot lengths, with interiors by noted designer Christopher C.

RV Shipments Expected to Surpass 307,000 Units in 2013

Haydocy Airstream & RV

Courtesy of Haydocy Airstream & RV March 29, 2013: RV Shipments Expected to Surpass 307,000 Units in 2013 Wholesale RV shipments are expected to rise to 307,300 units in 2013, according to Dr. Richard Curtin’s latest projection in the Spring 2013 issue of RV Roadsigns, RVIA’s quarterly forecast of RV deliveries to RV retailers. The gain to 307,300 units would be a 7.5% increase over the 2012 year-end total of 285,800 units. The motorhome segment of the market will see a gain of 13.1% from 28,200 units in 2012 to 31,900 units in 2013. Towable RV shipments are expected to climb by 7% from 257,600 units in 2012 to 275,400 units in 2013. Curtin says growth will be driven by a combination of factors. “Credit terms and the availability of loans can be expected to ease further in 2013. Gains in household wealth can be expected to continue in 2013 due to both an improving stock market as well as increased home prices while modest gains in after-tax incomes and..."

Ohio Gets Its Coldest Weather in 4 Years

The core of the cold air settled over the region Tuesday, likely giving Bucyrus its coldest day since January 2009. While temperatures are expected to slowly moderate as the week progresses, we’re not likely to warm past 25 degrees until Friday, with Monday probably being our next chance of getting above freezing.

The wind chill advisory that went into effect here Monday night, more for cold temperatures than high winds, is scheduled to expire at 11 a.m. Wednesday.

With north central Ohio experiencing its coldest weather in four years this week, the Mansfield/Ontario/Richland County Health Department advised residents to watch out for symptoms of hypothermia, which occurs when more heat escapes from your body than it’s able to produce.

“Common signs to look for are shivering, which is your body’s attempt to generate heat through muscle activity, and the umbles: Stumbles, mumbles, fumbles, grumbles,” Reed Richmond, an educator with the department, said.

More specifically, these symptoms include slurred speech, fatigue, lethargy and apathy.

Measures to avoid getting too cold might be self-explanatory, but are often overlooked — wearing gloves and a hat, avoiding overexertion, dressing in layers and, most importantly, staying dry.

Household pets need special attention during cold spells as well, according to the ASPCA.

Cats accustomed to being indoors should be kept indoors. And be aware that outdoor cats have a tendency to sleep under the hoods of cars. Bang on your hood before starting your car if there are cats in your neighborhood.

Ice-melting chemicals and road salt will make your dog or cat sick (although there are pet-safe brands on the market). Even if your pets don’t actively eat it off the ground, it can get lodged in their paws, to be licked up later.

Short-haired dogs will be grateful for a sweater, and puppies, regardless of their breed, are more susceptible to very cold weather than full-grown dogs (and are harder to housebreak in such weather as well).

We don’t like cold drafts. Neither do our pets, and since they’re closer to the floor they feel them far more often. Consider investing in a cat or dog bed, or at least give them a blanket or pillow. Your pets will thank you for it.

Cold Weather Road Trip?

Taking a road trip soon? Here's a few tips for before you go:
1) Check weather and traffic reports; most states have toll-free numbers you can call for both of these.
2) Get a full-service tuneup (recommended at 30,000 miles, 60,000 and so on). Bring your car in for service at least a week or two before you plan to leave - don't wait until the day before.
3) Check your car battery terminals for corrosion. Terminals can be cleaned with a wire brush dipped in baking soda and water.
4) Have the battery "load tested" if it's more than 4 years old. Cold weather greatly decreases a battery's ability to hold a charge - a weak battery may give up in very cold weather.
5) Inspect your tire-tread wear and maintain the proper air pressure indicated in your owner's manual. Replace worn or old tires. Install snow tires or all-weather tires if driving in snow. Some places (such as many mountain passes in the Sierra and Rockies) require tire chains in heavy snow. Purchase chains to keep in your trunk - and know how to install them beforehand.
6) Examine all belts and hoses to make sure there are no cracks or leaks.
7) Check your antifreeze strength in the radiator overflow reservoir with a hydrometer. The antifreeze should be clean, up to the proper level, and strong enough to provide protection at 36 degrees below zero F.
8) Replace the coolant and/or flush the cooling system if this hasn't been done in the last 15,000 miles.
9) Check all the car's fluids: oil, coolant, brake fluid, power steering and automatic transmission fluid (if applicable), hydraulic clutch fluid (if applicable).
10) Keep your washer-fluid reservoir filled. Use windshield washer fluid that has windshield antifreeze in it, not just water.
11) Replace your windshield wipers if they're split, cracked, streaking or skipping.
12) Be certain your headlights, taillights, brake lights and turning signals work, and replace bulbs as necessary.
13) Pack one or two warm blankets in the trunk of your car.
14) If you're traveling to an area with snow, bring a small shovel and kitty litter in case you get stuck in the snow.

Dillinger's Event Center

 
BUCYRUS — A local business owner’s dream that became a reality before he lost his battle with cancer is being carried on by his family and employees.

Harmon Guss renovated the former Julie’s Restaurant and opened Gus’s Grill and Grog in 2009.

Just a few weeks before he lost his battle with cancer, he opened an accompanying facility, called Dillinger’s Event Center, at 144 Washington Square.

“We officially opened in mid-October,” said Rich Edgington, chef and manager of the center.

Edgington said it was Guss’ goal to provide an event center to support the Bucyrus community.

“Harmon was always looking for ways to keep dollars and people local. He created a place where people can hold events such as conventions, wedding receptions, parties and meetings and not have to drive out of town,” Edgington said.
Guss’ wife and owner of Dillinger’s, Julie, is running the business with the help of two of their three daughters.
Dillinger’s disc jockey, Shawn Ridgeway, said the event center will be open to the public from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. every Friday and Saturday unless it is booked for a private event.

“We will have music and a full bar,” Ridgeway said.
Ridgeway said monthly events for the public are planned.
“Saturday we are having an ’80s party with contests, prizes, full bar and plenty of ’80s music,” Ridgeway said. “We may charge a small cover charge in March when we have our country and western theme night due to the expense of a mechanical bull.

“I think it will be a lot of fun to have one available.”

Ridgeway said in February the theme night will be Mardi Gras.

“We want to offer something different for the community,” Ridgeway said.

A marquee at the front of the building will alert the public when a private event is being held on a Friday or Saturday night.

“Otherwise, we are open to the public on those evenings,” Ridgeway said.

Angel Lange, who helps plan events at the center, said a Battle of the Bands event is being planned, along with a Bridal Show in early spring.

“We want to show brides everything we have to offer here,” Lange said.

The event center aims to be a full-service operation for a party, meeting or wedding reception.

Gas prices down in Ohio

The average price for a gallon of regular gas was $3.37 in Monday’s survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. That’s 15 cents lower than a week ago and the first time in three weeks that prices are down to start the work week. 

(At least it's heading in the right direction....)

Pump prices in Ohio are 11 cents lower than this time last month. Last year at this time, state drivers were paying even less — $3.23 a gallon.

Nationally, the average cost was about $3.39 per gallon on Monday. That’s 11 cents higher than the national average at this time last year.
