  • Mouth tape. Explained how much snoring affected me and the missus started using it. Cheap, simple, and the snoring stopped inside a week.

    As for the dogs, stop rewarding then when they bark. Don’t feed em, let em out, whatever it is they’re wanting that they bark for that you keep doing. Sounds like they’ve trained you.

    Cost.

    Switching to electric means buying multiple batteries and replacing all of your kit and outfitting the vehicles with the capability to charge those batteries during the day (because charging takes time and isn’t as quick as just filling up a tank of gas).

    Sticking with the existing gas ones costs nothing.

    Yes there are potentially long-term cost savings and yes it would reduce noise pollution but if anyone thinks these kinds of purchasing decisions are made on the basis of what would be sensible in the long term, they need to get out and live in the real world a little. Sad but true.
