  1. We will be getting a new one as well, probably one off Amazon. RV Miles had a deal with a mattress company. It’s highly rated mattress.
  2. https://www.instagram.com/p/CnvN0nJPynj/?igshid=MWI4MTIyMDE=
  3. Very ridiculous. But hey I get letters in the mail weekly to buy my property, for about 1/4 what it’s worth. These are all preying on ones that are 1) desperate in need 2) don’t know what they have or 3) diminishing mental capacity
  4. They are digging deep. I got a call last week, “am I still looking for a new 5th wheel?” Umm no, I bought a 5th wheel from your lot 7 years ago…… Sales have lived very well last few years….they will get “real world” Quick as well.
  5. Just the tip? Or a whole section. if the tip, then you could measure the diameter and see what comes up For instance U.S. Gear CTD-1500 1-1 2" Double Chrome Plated Turn Down Exhaust Tip https://a.co/d/3RD8VLO
  6. Been there, done that. In the upgrade section I believe I had some pics. I can post them again. It’s really not a bad job. I gutted my coach though. Everything came out and started fresh.
  7. You should be able to purchase the hoses from splendide. They are in clackamas oregon. Very nice people to deal with in the parts department
  8. Great first time posting a video. Its an easy job. You can tackle it.
  9. Did the video show up? Those are the part numbers
  10. IMG_2252.MOV Just redid the valves in mine last year, winterizing didn’t go well evidently! I had to replace the pump as well, they all froze. Strange they are outdated, pretty standard valve. I have pics of all the work if you want and I think I have part numbers as well
  11. Yeah I went direct into the panel inside. Ran them up into the back of the rear cap. Super clean work! I’m not 100% done, another smart 200 battery and the cerbo. I hate the outlets in the Coach, haven’t figured out yet how to replace them. Stupid snap/crimp
  12. Very nice! Yeah I don’t have solar, so I have a bit more room (and 2’ with an extra bay it looks like) Yeah the MP2 can lay flat. Also my transfer switch is on the drivers side in the bay with the shore power. That bay is wide open for future use. I see you added another set of breakers (2-30amp with panel) is this a safety thing? Or did you go the sub panel route? I have a few questions as it’s just my interest. I’ve jumped into this some, but my needs are not off grid at this time (hence no solar) Also, do you have a cerbo? Just picked one up to install. and yes, I bought the hydraulic crimper and ratchet one.
  13. I swapped out my locations for the chassis batteries. Moved them where the old inverter was and moved the inverter and DC-Dc in the bay I look at all the electronics that are already in the bay with the batteries and would think the same as you. The warning is a covering liability for Victron.
  14. Awesome! Looks familiar 😂😂😂 BTW, our big dog calls our coach (we call her Pearl) ”The rolling breadbox of death”
  15. My wife and I joked that the tow company got 2 new trucks after ours was towed. I laughed and said I didn’t even get a thank you card. I wish I could say I’m kidding but I’m not. What they told me they needed to do and what they did were 2 different things. Took more trucks, took more crew, ended up using their hazmat gear yada yada yada I told the insurance company to tell the tow company to keep the truck, it was totaled. But they wouldn’t listen.
  16. Not with a coach, but with my truck. They aim high to negotiate with insurance on the tow. And they hold the coach hostage with a daily “storage fee”. Where I’m at they had to pass a law that made the cops use a next in line system. It’s seems (not proven) that at the time a certain tow company was getting all the call from a local law…….makes you wonder.
  17. What’s the plan? Lots of Bass to catch?
  18. Sun was out, roads were clear, good excuse to go grab some propane
  19. Just how much money does the RV site take in? A few clicks here and there going to put a dent in the bottom line? Veering off…………………………
  20. I was leaning Basement as well, based on the thickness in the pics.
  21. Looking at it I’m with you, can’t picture where it’s at on the Coach. The “torn” part just looks so thin to be a section of the main channel frame. I can’t imagine a frame tearing like that. We’ve had fully loaded dump trucks that the bed fell over, and the cab of the truck stayed level, if you can picture a frame twisting 90 degrees. Nothing torn or ripped. The frame had a slight twist to it when we got it upright. Anyway, a better perspective with pics would be helpful. And I laughing at the suggestion of taking Ike whole house off and putting a new frame under it. That’s called “totaled” in the insurance world
  22. Sorry I have the R8 suspension and not the R4. The sway bars look and install much like an auto set up.
