My new washer is on the simpler side with an agitator.. The dryer had sensor drying but it doesn't work but does the job on time..

I don't like that there`s way too many sensors and gadgets to screw up on appliances now Steve.

Its snowing out here now and is -9 , electrician showed and got most of the work done, just has 1 plugin box to install. He's building a garage and fence 2 doors down but his white guy partner can't figure out what he's doing when it comes to building a gate. This guy knows his work but knows he needs a Calgarian around to get a steady stream of jobs unfortunately.

I don't want a ''smart car'' to do my thinking or my driving, I want to mess that up all by myself.
It`s been lightly snowing here all day and it`s -7 now Perry, lots of wind too.

When I'm in a vehicle I want to make sure there's at least 1 nut behind the wheel.
My washer can't wash more than 3 pairs of pants at a time or they all come out dirty, the dryer can only dry 4 pairs of pants at a time in under 45 minutes. These are a new technology set and don't work worth a crap.

It sounds like you need a ''smarter'' washer and dryer, these can`t think well enough Perry.

I want a Maytag, but then again, the Maytag repair man became disposable for a reason.

The new washer I got does 3 days of clothes at a time.. plus towels . The dryer will dry the 3 pair of blue jeans in about 50-55 minutes, then the rest of the clothes are dried as a separate load in 45 minutes..

Time to dig out a washboard and tub plus string up a clothesline, pretty sure I can come up with a wringer somewhere.
