Re: Bird - W.Bound I-10 West Phoenix

We were going through downtown about that time of day, on that day, headed west. We consider 38.6 feet big by our standards. I hope your dental work is finished and you have a beautiful smile.

Re: Bird - W.Bound I-10 West Phoenix

It was Big Bird traveling home to Los Angeles. We were staying at Eagle View RV Park at Fort Mc Dowell and attending a dog show in Scottsdale at West World.

Re: I-10 East Bound Phx/Tucson Mon March 8th

Interesting,

I went by today, but not yesterday. I have a grey tv, not white. Not me, but very close.

Re: Adding air bags

I called the dealer yesterday for an appointment for installing and the price went from $400 to over $800 with compressor and gage. They claim they did not hear me say last Saturday that I wanted bags, compressor and gage. So I canceled the install and went on line and found a company called Suspens...

Re: Adding air bags

Hi Gerry, Yeah, we are in the mud slide area, or should I say we are 2 doors outside the official slide area. The K line wall is 2 doors away. The last big rain brought the mud, but the drain system we have here is working very well. The county is cleaning out the dam behind us for the 4th time. It ...

Re: Adding air bags

You got a lot more than we did, but if we get much more, there may not be any hills left.

We ordered air bags (Firestone) and the RV dealer wants $400 with pump and controls installed. I sounds like a good price, but I am not sure.

Adding air bags

I took my 5th wheel in today for some minor warranty work and the service representative remarked about the sag in the truck. It is only a couple inches and the handling is great. He is suggesting I add air bags and is recommending Firestone brand air bags. I have an 2009 F250 regular bed and a 2010...

Reece 16K hitch problem

I am new to RV'g and have an issue with my Reece 16k hitch. The Receiver connects to the slider by inserting the Receiver into a slot in the slider and pushing a bolt through a hole in the Receiver and the Slider. There is a pin that holds the bolt in place. On the other end of the bolt is a welded ...

Re: Best Tires?

I have been riding on Michelins for years. I pay a little more per tire and get over a 100,000 miles on each set. Rotate every 15,000 and watch air pressure. No blow outs and they hold air. They are a very safe tire. And, while most people believe Michelins are French, Americans purchased the compan...
