Hello,
I’m just about to start building my fence (about 180 running ft). and I was looking into tan color vinyl fencing. I like the 6 ft high privacy ones, nothing too crazy. I have a couple concerns since I have no experience with this product:
– will the color fade?
– the fence posts are about 8 1/2 feet tall, leaving only 2 feet to go into the concrete (which in my area will be 42″ down) – is this doing to be strong enough? If not, how to reinforce it so it doesn’t swat, etc.?
Any other relevent information would be greatly appreciated. I would like to buy the 6ft wide pre-fab ones to save some time. Thanks again for your help!

the glue fails...
on a cold day hail will shred them...

Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
I've seen them melt from a grass fire and tip over. Not very hot, it was a dry but mowed lawn so the flames weren't very high or hot (relatively speaking) at all.
Are the vinyl posts supposed to be slipped over a 4x4 wood post?
