Where would "general delivery" ship it to?


If you do not have a street address or a Post Office Box you can (usually) use General Delivery. General Delivery means they ship it to the post office. The P.O. holds it until you show up to claim it. Make sure you have some ID. It probably works better in smaller post offices than large ones but I've found it to be very reliable.

And if you are 500 miles from civilization you best get this thing ordered so it shows up in Tok Alaska (or wherever) when/if you arrive there.

Well they may have all sold by now but I spoke to them several months ago and they purchased the last 50 Genuine Germán Bosch from Germany. I bought one the price was at a premium but they were the real deal.

Survived the Dempster. Brutal, brutal drive. No heat in the bus, wind, fog, freezing temps, and more mud than I have ever seen for 1100 miles. I installed an under-the-bus mounted Propex furnace before the trip, but it quickly got full of mud due to the brilliant design of a paper intake hose. Might have ruined a $1000 furnace, yay!

Anyway, pretty sure the issue was the air flow wiper. I took it all apart and cleaned all of the contacts and the bus is running waaay better now.
