I have an '08 2900MK. I can maintain 36 degrees F. with the temperature adjust slider at 75% of max cold. Outside air temp 90 degrees F. - Jack

If the converter output in the Big Horn is as dirty as the one in my Sundance, you will want to mount your HF antenna as far away from your trailer as possible. I use a Tar Heel screwdriver mounted on my TV and keep the truck away from the trailer with a 75 foot run of RG8X. It is interesting...

The connector on the Coby is a Euro style TV connector. Radio Shack sells an adapter for this plug which mates with a standard F connector. I use a two set coupler and short lengths of RG 6 connected to the roof antenna TV jack. - Jack

Ford also specifies a maximum payload for your truck. I believe it is 2,800 pounds. Payload is everything you carry in or on the truck and includes, among other things, passengers, cargo, your hitch or pin weight and the weight of the hitch itself. If your unloaded pin weight is 2,130 pounds...

Outstanding job, Traveler07. I would also like to know what stain you used and the make and model of the faucet. Thanks.. - Jack

Since I fabricated and installed a duct (see my earlier postings) on my Sylvania microwave I have had absolutely no problems with moisture. - Jack

If you buy the Dometic, be sure your price includes the built-in mounting kit. This kit includes the duct that channels moist exhaust air outside your cabinet. These units are designed to be used either as a built in or counter top unit. Built in requires a mounting kit. The kit number for...

No Tom, no air bags. Somewhere in the literature I have accumulated, it states add 9" for A/C. Like A/C is an option most folks do without. I'll look again. Plan on close to 13 feet however. - Jack

I have an 08 2900MK. I has the 16 inch tire option, A/C and maxi vent covers. I pull easily with an Ford 07 250 SD 6.0 leaker with 18 inch tires. The trailer is perfectly level on my Reese 16K hitch. I am at 12' 11 1/2" at the forward vent cover. I had a clearance problem getting into my...

Very good questions. The WF8935 is a power converter/battery charger and AC distribution panel. It does not contain an inverter. The unit converts 120v AC to 12.6V DC to run all 12.6v DC devices in your trailer. These devices include your ceiling and outside lights, landing jacks and...

Recently, a friend asked me to take a look at the Dometic analog thermostat in his 2004 Sunline Travel Trailer. He was having intermittent heat furnace cycling problems and had found he could make his furnace turn on by wiggling the control wires inside the thermostat. I suspected a broken or...

I have been using the MagicJack device for the past few months. It works well enough on my home DSL connection for me to drop my previous long distance carrier. It works reasonably well (minor latency issues) through my Verizon broadband card when connected via EVDO RevA. For $20.00 up front...

I had the same problem with my 2900MK. It took many phone calls and almost eight weeks to get a corrected GVWR sticker. Now I have a sticker showing the correct axle weights, but a manufactured date a month after the trailer was titled. Don’t forget to check the weight sticker inside the...

I have an 08 2900MK. The ceiling height at the foot of the bed is 67 3/4 inches. The ceiling height at the sink side of the bed is 74 inches. I used to be 69 1/2 inches tall. However, after 41 years of marriage, I am now 68 inches tall. Therefore, I don't have a problem (at least until my...

Just get back from the barn, here are the specs: The entertainment cabinet viewing size opening in my 2900MK is 25 15/16 inches W by 24 ¼ inches H. The inside the cabinet width is 31 inches W. I have a Samsung 27 inch (diagonal) screen size LCD model S2738D. The overall size of this set is...
