Keith... Hope you can fight that and win. An antique / FMV shouldn't be considered commercial when it isn't used for commercial purposes... And those are the first two words of the Ordinance... If you can disprove that your vehicle is NOT commercial, the the rest of the verbage is irrelevant...

Oh the irony... I'm wondering if he's having to use his vehicle right now for search & rescue...

Today is supposedly his hearing date according to the first post... I can't believe he got one so soon. Anything civil here is usually schedules for *at least* a year away... Hope it goes well!

I love the quote I saw on another forum: Show me where in my HOA it says I can't park a 155mm Howitzer in the driveway.. :whistle:

Tightened up the air compressor belt. Still needs a little more tension but its better than what it was. Replaced the air pressure gauge in the dash, it wasn't reading correctly. Also replaced the air valve on the passenger side cab since it was leaking and added a quick-connect fitting on it so...

They shouldn't, but they do. Deed restricted communities in a basic sense are meant to keep residences to a certain "standard" / upkeep. Keep your lawn mowed, don't park junkers in your yard, etc... However, the "classier" the subdivision (or just a wanna-be), the more (ludicrous) restrictions...

I just looked on the Maryland drivers license class codes... Your basic "Class C" accommodates: "Any non-commercial combination of motor vehicles with a GVW less than 26,001 pounds". Consider his deuce with camper is around 14,000 and it's NOT COMMERCIAL, then I would say he's in the clear...

Here's a website with a lot of links about the people with the potbelly pig. It even made the local news several times. I think it's great that the HOA lost, they really are becoming bullies... Save Wilbur Sardo from eviction. Read the official (latest) news on his blog. Like a person with a...

There doesn't seem to be one definitive answer. I've read dozens of threads and everyone seems to have their own filters they like to use and some say certain things work, others say it doesn't... I haven't changed my filters yet (waiting for weather to cool down), but I ordered some new oil &...

Well, the deuce *is* a flex-fuel vehicle... lol... In all honestly, this all boils down to how good of a lawyer you have...

Problem is, in contracts where they are too vague, that actually doesn't benefit the HOA, it benefits the homeowner... There is a fine line when you are trying to be broad, but when you are "too broad" it becomes unenforceable. We will just have to sit back and see how this goes. Best of luck...

I don't see why a bobber would make a difference... You could have two of them the exact same length, one with the 3rd axle, one without... If anything they should classify it based on gross weight, which as we've already established for a 2-1/2 ton you don't need a CDL for... heck you don't...

In a subdivision adjacent to us. There was a HUGE media story about someone that had a potbelly pig as a "pet"... The HOA of course took them to court to get rid of the pig. Funny thing is, none of the neighbors had a problem, and they even had a subdivision wide survey and an overwhelming...

If the wording only says "Truck", then yes that is too vague to enforce. Either ALL vehicles that are are classified as a truck go, or your "truck" stays. In situations like this, vagueness generally favors the person that did NOT draft the contract. If they decide to try and change the wording...

Thank you! That is exactly what I was looking for. I was still probably 6-10 TMs away in reading till I got to that one! Lots of good illustrations in that TM!
