On the bright side, that is a good place to be stuck in a campground. :) We spent a week there in September and I hated to leave the area. But I checked and I have Lippert axles...whew!

porcelain and china both make suitable thrones, but china probably cleans up easier and looks more conventional. Central vac is great, comes with hoses and attachments. Floor? Don't know but the wood is durable, more so than carpet. Electric stabilizer in the front, we have crank downs in the back.....

Maybe the smoke detectors should be hooked to the vent fans! :)

How does your husband get away with that! I have to talk to him. :D
We wish we would have ordered without a bed and put our own in. Get a much better bed that way. I believe the wood platform is actually built to a queen size more so than king, but i like the king for width.

Don't remove them. Drill a triangle of 3 holes and fit the tube into each hole and let it rip. Filling the central part is all that is required to strengthen the shelf.

smoke detector

Smoke detector battery, check them!
I just checked ours, after all you should every year. To my surprise, mine had its battery in backwards! Came from the dealer that way, so the battery didn't wear out.

If going to the Durango, CO area there is a campground called Blue Spruce north of Lake Vallecito that is very good. Facilities are very clean, it is quiet, very friendly and helpful, good wi-fi, lots of shade, good roads and good hookups. It's only problem is that it is an hour from anything, but w...

The Garmin has gotten me out of some "where am I " situations and I love it for that. I also love its tracking ability, however, it is still a dumb machine and needs some common sense guidance itself. Today mine tried to get me to turn left on a right only intersection, but it can't know e...

I nowhave a prodigy P3. My Tekonsha Sentinel controller quit working coming over Wolf Creek Pass, 10000 feet high, and I had some smoking brakes by the time I got down. Would have been alright except I had a very slow car in front of me and the Pac Brake needed some help. But luckily no damage when ...

We had the same problem where they reversed the connections on the inside cabinet jacks.

Installers can't read wire colors correctly I guess.

Sounds like a competent test, but be sure that the fuses on the front of the converter itself are not blown. And also, be sure that you have 120 volts to the converter. In my case, the transformer inside the converter was defective probably due to a lighting strike we had when hooked up to shore pow...

I noticed the same lack of power. I added the Bully Dog and a Pac Brake and all my issues seemed to clear up. It also seems to help the mileage some which seems not right, but is as advertised. I have the 48 tranny which I think is tougher than the old 47. Hope so anyway. But Dodge needs to compete ...

The converters in the Cardinal's, mine anyway, were of the battery minder variety. My battery had a dead cell also after a year, but I blame the battery for that. got a warranty replacement and bougt one more to parallel so I have plenty of juice to run the heater all night and not worry. Worrying i...
