    Montrose, CO to Durango

    It is not necessary to go west to Utah. If you take Hwy 62 west off of Hwy 550 to Hwy 145 and go south the drive is much easier. You will end up in Cortez and will have to backtrack to Durago. This route is just a pretty as Red Mountain pass (IMO), and is a much easier drive. Having said that...

    Colorado State Parks

    Olcoon said: Actually it is a daily charge. You can come and go as many times as you like during that day. The cost is $7.00 per day. The yearly pass is $70.00 so if you will be in Colorado State Parks more then 10 days the yearly pass is the way to go. It is good for a year so if you buy it...

    ATF: ElkRidge - Fresh water filling

    Doesn't appear anyone is tuned in. As Olcoon says try burping it. I had the same problem with our Elkridge.

    cable TV

    If you find the amp is not on or if that doesn't fix the issue, check the wiring. Others have had issues with this.

    Moving On

    After 14 months with our Elkridge, we decided a month ago that it was time to move on. We have purchased another SOB fifth-wheel. I have learned a great deal from this forum and the members here. Heartland has done a good thing in hosting the forum. I wish you all well!

    Satellite TV Connection

    Very possibly could be a bad coaxial connection. Many on the forum have reported that issue. I'd start by taking the face plates off and looking at the terminations. I had to go through the entire coach and replaced virtually all of the connectors.

    Brand New Elkridge - Roof leaking

    Bob&Patty, Obviously you have a great deal of experience with RV's. So do I. This is our fifth RV. I like you understand that these things require regular maintenance as do most things. I think if you saw my rig you would agree it is well maintained. My reason for going to another brand are...

    Brand New Elkridge - Roof leaking

    Bob&Patty, You read parttimerver post differently than I did. He/She said that they would own another Heartland product again because of "all of the problems" he/she has had, not because he/she has a leaky roof. I also have had many problems with our Elkridge. After 14 months of owning it I...

    How much cable

    I carry two 50 foot lengths of cable. It's very rare when I have to get the second one out.

    Auxiliary fuel/ toolbox combo

    I put a 51 gallon Titan replacement tank on my truck. I have a short bed so didn't want to take up the room an in bed tank would use. 51 gallons in painful enough at the pump for me!

    Confused

    Many of us have had issues with the coaxial connections. Pull the connectors off the wall and see if the connections look good. You may find that some need to be re-terminated.

    Lippert springs strike again

    I know this is like beating a dead horse, but just couldn't help myself. After 13.5 months and about 4,000 miles, all on pavement I discovered a broken spring on our Elkridge 34QSRL. Lippert "graciously" agreed to replace the spring, but the repair bill was on me. Unfortunately the nearest...
