With an onboard LPG generator for long range. Gas goes bad too quickly and
diesel needs biocide for longterm storage. LPG is quite happy in it's BBQ
sized tank for 20 years.

Subject: fsj: Door handle is VERY hard to pull back
My son (10 year old defensive back) noticed the other day that the passenger
door handle is VERY hard to pull back to open the door. Does anyone know why
these things get so hard to open? Is there something that can be adjusted or
sprayed with WD-40 to loosen it up?
