Okay, it's a new day so here's a new topic. Often you have to connect two sewer hoses with a plastic coupler. We have one of those red ones but the hoses leak where they join with the coupler. Anyone else have the problem? Any solutions? We tie a plastic bag around where they are joined and then dispose...

Has anyone made a sewer hose weight? So many of the sewer openings don't have threads so the threaded fittings don't hold the hose positively down into the opening. I want to make something, but I'm having trouble thinking of something that can be used in all the contingencies we find and...

Just wanted everyone to know about a HUGE problem we had with Carefree of Colorado with our slide covers. We ordered our slide covers over a month ago and finally made it back to our dealer to have the covers installed. When the installation started the dealer realized that the mounting h...

I have been hearing a lot about bigfoot levers lately. I was curious if these automatically level your rig for you or are they hydraulic and save you from cranking. How would the levelers know when your trailer is level? Is it a system that includes leveling sensors of some sort? Does anyone know what ri...

Okay, someone had to ask it. What does everybody do for toilet paper? I see they sell "special" toilet paper but surely there are some success and horror stories about this. Can't see getting those field corn cobs through that 3" ball valve. -- Edited by L...

We are going to be where we are for the winter. It will be cold. I have heat taped and "insulated" the water hose, and the waste pipes coming out of the fiver. I'm interested in knowing if anyone is using portable electric heaters. What type/brand/size and your opinons Thanks Al

As I get closer to buying a 5th wheel, I am looking for advice about where to buy the larger accessories like: slide toppers, solar panels, satellite dish, window awnings, etc. It seems to me there are 3 choices: The dealer Advantages: One stop shopping rolled into RV Loan, Might get good p...

Given that a GPS and Pressure Pro both use 12 volt and there is only one 12 volt receptacle on the dash, how do most of you handle the power needs of these two devices and other 12 volt items (phone recharger, MP3 player, etc) your have in your RV? Are dash 12 volt plugs able to handle a constant load? The...

Howard, this question is for you since you are at the HDT show. You know we have the same Cambridge as you guy's. I have said from day one this 5th wheel needed 3 axles, however it doesn't. Are you going to put the 17.5 wheels on your Cambridge. We haven't had any problems...

Hi, We're thinking of redoing the interior seating and sure could use some recommendations on comfortable recliners. An internet search just confuses me more. Any suggestions? Thanks, Fred

This doesn't quite qualify for technology - so wasn't too sure where to post it. Wondered if the fulltimers here had a preference on which BBQ grill to use. The one we have we can't make beer can chicken in...the lid is not tall enough. Any suggestions anyone?

When my Mother was put on oxygen, we had her appliances in the kitchen (of her stick home) removed and replaced with electric because the company told her not to get around any gas. OK, my question since we plan to have her join us on some trips is this MH – Do we need to have electric cooktop in kitche...

Well, I just read Howard's journal for today. I re-read the part on filling up at the trucker's pumps at big interstate stations. We have a GMC duramax 2500. We have alot of trouble fitting those bigger nossels into our tank to fill up. I know they must make adapters for private-truck tanks. We were wo...
