    We frequently have a door or two that don't want to open. The first step we take is to make sure the rig is level.

    We sometimes have problems with a slider not closing in our 2000 Monaco Diplomat. We discovered that if the rig is not level side to side we have problems.

    Did you try a Google search for Mobile RV Repair in those areas?

    There is a Camping World not too far away. Compare $$

    I wish ours did. Our start batteries only charge off the alternator or a charger. We do have the ability to start the engine off the house batteries.

    Shore power will charge the house batteries but not the start batteries.

    Thanks. We will run the rig for longer when we do. We actually have lived in our RV fulltime for over 12 years. We used to travel and "workamp" but have been pretty much stationary as of late.

    We had a similar problem with our 2000 Monaco Diplomat after the rig had been parked for about 9 months. Our batteries were not charged enough to engage the transmission. We started the rig about once a month and let it idle for about 15 minutes. It was an expensive lesson. We had an "expert" out. All he did was start the rig and let it idle for about 45 minutes. Once the batteries were charged enough the transmission engaged. We replaced the batteries soon after.

    You can't replace the seals but you can replace the doors. Years ago (about 7) our seals were separating. We used duct tape to keep them together. Sealed great. Recently the unit bit the dust. We replaced with a 10 Cu Ft Frigidaire ref/freezer. We have storage next to. We already had and still have a 10 Cu Ft so we have equivalent of 20 Cu ft.

    We have used a Winegard (currently using 2nd, G4) since 2011 and are pleased. A drawback on the Dish brands are that you can only use with Dish TV. The Weingard can use Dish or Direct.

    I always use paper maps. I have found GPS and online mapping to be incorrect too often.

    Over the last 20 plus years with trailers, 5th wheels and our Class A 2000 Monaco Diplomat we have never run into gauges that work. Learn your tanks, your usage, and dump on a schedule.

    I'm with the others that tout AAA. We have had their RV Plus for years. Several years back we had to have our 38' Class A DP towed less than 10 miles from the edge of Oklahoma City, OK to a Freightliner dealer. Our master onboard computer system had failed. It took hours to have he drive train (?) disconnected so the rig could be towed. The bill was over $800 then (about 2015). Am thankful we didn't have to pay any of it.

    Flexsteel exited the RV furniture business. Do not purchase the brand that Camping World offers. It is junk. Go to or research one of the companies that does upgrades like Dave & LJ's in Woodland, WA. See what brands they are working with - will be high quality.
