The vent cover is actually broken in the corner. However, the spray paint is a great idea. My window trim around the door is already yellow.

Ford Mechanic, standing in the middle of the local dealership said to ALWAYS use a fuel additive in the 6.0 turbo diesel, primarily for cetane boost. Of course he wanted me to buy the Ford stuff, probably nothing wrong with it. I've been using Diesel Clean available at all larger truck stop fuel...

Well, we still love it. We took the 2900 rk out last weekend for a short run two night stay outside of Beaufort, SC. Now we're in Pigeon Forge, TN, for the week and all is well, mostly. Got a slow leak in the black tank valve that will have to be repaired/replaced. I discovered that the cable...

Motorcycle Thanks for the reply. However, I decided to separate my motorcycle from my camping. We just bought a Sundance 2900RK 5th wheel. Spending the week in Pigeon Forge, TN, in it this week. Happy RVing and Riding!

I decided to go with the Michelin LTX A/T (E) They come in black walls only. I hope they do well. They cost enough!

Now that you've had your tires for a while - Do you still like them? One post on the Diesel Shop said that they wear out fast when towing. Also, are yours the E rated pro series? I've got to get new tires immediately. I'm also looking at Michelins... Any thoughts or suggestions?

I like the box for the back bumper!

Thanks, guys.

OK. make sure I'm reading this correct - the average tool box that sits on the top of the bed will not work with the 8 ft. bed. So how do you ever pull one with a 5'6" bed or even 6"?

Looking at a new to me truck with 8 ft. bed - 2005 F250. Can I put a tool box in it and still have room for the 5th wheel hitch. Any turning concerns? Sundance 2900rk (2008)

Hey, thanks a bunch. I'm chomping at the bit to get my F150 sold so I can get a F250. There are plenty of them out there and quite a few approaching true wholesale. Is there something I can do to the outside plastic to keep the sun from baking it to powder in 3 years? My TT was 5 years old but...

1. What lengths should the 2 slide toppers be?2. What is the true length of the RV? I've seen both 29' and 30'8"3. Why are the technical designs mentioned in the pdf construction booklet not on line as indicated? or where are they if I'm missing them?4. What lenth of a heavy duty sewer hose can...

Well, we unloaded the Coleman Caravan and stepped up to the 2008 model 2900RK. Bought it at Americamp in Asheboro, NC. Very good purchase experience. I need suggestions on slide out awnings & storage covers. Now if I can just sell the F150 so I can get a truck to pull the new camper...

I appreciate everyone's input. We've given up on on the TT. I'm now planing on selling my F150 and get a F250 so that I can make it up the mountain from Ashville to Gatlinburg pulling a 5th wheel. Maybe I'll be able to get a lift for the back of something with a good frame. I don't really...

So you will go up the ramp and turn left. then, square it up long ways with he camper. It could work. How long is your bike? Does your rear fender cover the tire or will your rear tire butt up against the foot of the bed? I'm pretty sure I'd need to have the front of the bike at the front of...
