hhmm ... so... IF the average lifetime is ... maybe 12 years..
that would be a savings of $ 3 a year...
I could save 25 cents a month on my electric bill,
and since the IceMaker only runs when the Fridge is actually running,
maybe they are talking about the 7 seconds of the Water Valve and the Harvest Motor in the IceMaker ...

Why is it they hate dem friges? No R-12, no more $8 defrost clocks, and now no more automatic ice.

Might be a bidness opertunity in da making for me. Alaska used to cut ice off the lakes and ship it to Seatle for dem ole skool ice friges that might be making a come back, they way things are headed.

What I dont get all this was based on the "Molina-Rowland" Therory. As of yet this theory is unproven but somebodies pockets got very well lined.   Uncle Sam for nothing.

Ah yes, good ol' La Wanda Page.  It's funny how ugly she was on the show, but she was very pretty when not playing her part as Aunt Esther.

One of the places I used to work for, he mainly sold used appliances. He had so much junk in his yard, I set his ringtone on his cell phone to the Sanford & Son theme when he left the store.
