  1. Been rving 11 years, winter 3 mo in heat. Summer traveling around the west coast & the middle of this great country. We are from NJ.. Rule #1 250-300 miles a day (with acouple of rest stops) depending on where we want overnight. Now I have right eye retina problem but still do the same. Boss says always stop before dark & it works for us.
  2. A fun just imagine New years resolutions…In case you want to exercise more in 2022, ponder this: • The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54. • The inventor of gymnastics died at the age of 57. • The world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41. • The best footballer in the world, Maradona, died at the age of 60. • James Fuller Fixx, credited with helping start America's fitness revolution by popularizing the sport of running, died of a heart attack while jogging at age 52. BUT ... • The KFC inventor died at 94. • Cigarette maker Charles Winston died at the age of 102. • The inventor of opium died at the age of 116, in an earthquake. • And, the Hennessey Liquor inventor died at 98. How did smart people come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life? The rabbit is always jumping up and down, but it lives for only two years, and the turtle, that doesn't exercise at all, lives 400 years. Oh yes of course, Hugh Hefner died at 90 on the job ( or shortly thereafter) So in 2022 chill, stay cool, eat, drink and enjoy your life!
  3. My tires are covered on my insurance policy, called FMCA several years ago with a blowout on the garden state parkway. Sent road service, back on the road 2.5 hrs. You can have the tire covered or not. Signed & on my way.
  4. You are right, after going throught it again... i realize someone may have planned for a gas heater. Sounds reasonable if the ends are capped. Have a great Christmas all
  5. Jump to generator Manuel/manuf and see if they have a recomendation during the install... I'm sure it'll be mentioned. Would be the best guide, the coach manuf tech might have an "I know" attutude and create something different.
  6. May be a handy shutoff for places like tunnels where the gas from the tank has to be manually shutoff to be allowed through. Just guessing.
  7. Had this happen years ago on a 2000 American tradition. Coil by the trans crapped out. Replaced myself 30min & test drive.
  8. Every panel i have ever seen they are both connected through the panel. The neutral on shore ele is the stand & the ground is the chassis. With the gen running both are chassis bound. If you Google it, its right. As a practical matter, if he dosent know this does he know water flows down hill. A good licensed electrician would be better in this case.
  9. Was pleasantly surprised this morning. Coach winterized but the question in my tech head..... does the basement heat controller really work 21degF I turned on the Hurticane, (living space tstats off) went out 20 min later and I am a happy camper. The basenent tstat has the pump running the basement heater is on and everything works as intended for winter operation. I also have installed a parallel 1500w electrical heater with an on/off tstat for operation on shore power just in case I need it. A little redundancy never hurts. I'm just happy the hurricane operates as intended.
  10. Ticks a man off when that happens. Try & create a test unit with a 12v bulb holder & your old burned out charger connector. Blow a bulb maybe. Could also cut off charger & use cut wires to check voltage. Even if it was wired backwards it shouldnt fry the charger. 12v center pin, ground outside contact metal. Check both to ground. Sorry but writing about a reason why something like this might happen is not like having it in your hand, kinda like flying blind.
  11. Unusual for the cig lighter not to be on separate fuse, probably 15a Bad ground could take all out. Use a temp jumper ground to test
  12. Find 12v chassis fuses, may be in outer access under windshield or under dash. Separate fuse I believe, should be marked
  13. Without a doubt great work. A lot of folks out there need to see what can be acomplished when you put your sholder to the wheel. You folks are great, many ataboy's 🤗
  14. I completely replaced an Airstream floor years ago from the frame up. The partical board that was there surprised me for such an expensive trailer I uaed marine plywood as a base it can take the dampness better than anything. A little expensive but worth the extra. With a base like that you do what you want, I did blonde hardwood t&g. Looked great & was solid. Good luck with your project, maybe a pan under the crate like those used for attic A/C units or 2nd floor washing machine, plug the drain
  15. Yes, with my coach'net double tow in Idaho I never saw a bill either. A local outfit with the right gear was sent to us & knew the area... was good. Have used FMCA & Good Sam a few times over the past 11 years, same thing no bill for towing. Nice to have when the chips are down.
