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!!

LOL yup you were right there Mike, Yesterday though (Sat.) was the 1st road test to see how things feel. We only went 15-20 miles. Only real ques. I have is with the tires. Asked in another thread, about the settings on TPT for hi-low pressure. For some reason the monitor won't let me set low at 80psi, It goes from 79 to 81 (go figure, might that be on account tire pressure is at 80psi?) So I set to 79 for low and 90psi for high,(recommended by fasteagle) . and in a short time all 4 tires were up and over the 90psi and the highest temp got to 105. Might anyone know of a chart of some kind or any info on dialing in on settings? If you are using TPT what settings are you running???

here you go Mike... NOT in the driveway...

As of now, We need to put things in order and sell the sticks and bricks (anyone interested in a lakefront in CT???) I want to be fully "set up" before heading out, Tires on 5er(marabombs on it now),possible solar, axle weights taken care of. get the debt down if not WIPED OUT. We are roughly looking at 2yrs but hopefully sooner. Again we are offering boondocking here till we sell. I drive for a living and have all lower 48 states behind me, Now I run New England except for Maine (we have a driver who lives there and takes care of the whole state.) and the Catskills upper Albany areas of NY. I can find work anywhere with my Lic. A job will mainly be just to keep me from getting bored, Cheri is retired.
Looking to find a place or places to rotate seasonally.Lake fishing (prefer trout) has to be on top if not 2nd as to where we go. The winters here are and have taken their toll over the years and I am getting tired of them. So I continue to read up on everything I need to learn about and hope to retain 1/2 of it (CRS bad here)

Well, you must be the only one here that suffers from that......

 

....(kidding)

By the way, have you made any progress with posting photos?  I haven't noticed any actually posted, but if you only "preview" and don't actually "Submit Post," we've no idea of any success.
