Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Congratulations on your new home.  I can see why your daughter liked her room.  The set-up seems to be really good for a 43-footer.  We moved into ours back in April and have been living in our 38' since then.  Our biggest issue was dealing with the record breaking heat this summer and a few leaks.

Those few leaks may be a result of high water pressure in the mobile home park where we are located.  I suggest you do some research for a good pressure regulator that is adjustable.  Check out Suites Owners International Travel Club's website for some more information on that issue.  I am looking at a Watts 263A model.

Good luck and enjoy the new lifestyle.  I think you will really like the Suites.

Terry

PS:  You might check with your dealer to see if they checked the torque on the wheel lug nuts and on the axle nuts as well.  Check out SOITC's website for more on that as well.

Thank you Terry. The floor plan is perfect for us and is what sold us on it. Of course, it didn't hurt that it was a DRV :)
It's got a pressure regulator on it right now and I try to keep pressure around 40psi.

The dealer took care of the lug and axle nuts yesterday.

Kyle,

When we really got to thinking about our water pressure, we went to buy a regulator.  All that was available on short notice was a regulator set at about 45 psi.  It really isn't enough pressure to do a good job of flushing the commode.  As soon as I can, I'll get the Watts so I can set it at about 60 psi to improve that.

Wow this is beautiful and what a wonderful thing you are doing for your daughter. What an adventure you are going on. We have 7 grandkids and hope to take them ( a couple at a time!) with us from time to time.
Your blog is wonderful and thanks for including Rascal Flats Your Wish. I needed that today. Things are moving fast for us. We took delivery of our 38' Big Country right before labor day and our house closes in 2 weeks so we will move into it then fulltime till my husbands job comes to an end. Then not sure after that. I am freaking out a little this week but I am keeping my eye on the goal of less stuff and more freedom.
Good luck and tell Kylee I LOVE her room. Now back to the garage sale pricing!!

Thanks everybody! We gotta give a hat tip to Linda for that Rascal Flats video...it was the send-off song from the RV-Dreams rally.

I am indeed my wife's hero with the dishwasher.

Hope your closing goes smoothe, granny!

Congratulations, guys. That is one beautiful rig. Mary Kay and I just took delivery of our Select Suites 36rs3 Monday, so your " moving in" pics look really familiar. We 've spent many years vacationing in the Franklin/Cherokee area. Beautiful country indeed!! Be safe and we'll see y'all down the road.

Thanks again! We are enjoying our rig here at Happy Holiday RV Village in Cherokee. Colors are changing and it is gorgeous here. Plus, the park is almost empty since they close in 3 weeks...nice :)

Now, to decide where to go next.
