    HELP - Kitchen Sink broke loose from counter

    Imagine my shock and dismay to discover the kitchen sink no longer attached to 1/2 of the counter. :( Need to repair it post haste as we will be using the rig to take our daughter to college next week. Help please - what type of glue should we use? I have Gorilla Glue -- will that work?

    Major Mistake Was Made, Lesson Learned

    Re: Major Sewer Backup Problem - HELP! Hubby hooked a y to the water supply and someone turned it on. So we had water and flushwater at the same time! Not recommended especially since we were sitting at another site around the campfire. It filled the tank and had nowhere else to go but up...

    Major Mistake Was Made, Lesson Learned

    We have a 3490RB - Our commode overflowed spilling onto the bathroom floor, to the carpet, and down into the lower compartment; and filled the heat vent/hose next to it.:eek: Sadly, we know how it happened (a huge faux pas:mad:). Spent a couple of hours in the dark cleaning everything out...

    Purchasing Issues

    We had the exact same problem with our local dealer in VT. We drove to the outskirts of Chicago to purchase our new rig. A memorable 4 day road trip to save thousands of dollars. We suggest you google the floorplan you are interested in, then find a dealer with one in stock and the best...

    Are they sure DTV is best??

    We had cable in Lake George, NY last weekend and could not watch TV most of the time. Had to do channel searches numerous times to even find some snowy analogs. Hoping this is not a sign of the future...

    Rodent Entry Points

    We stuffed steel wool in the front legs, but they seem to be pushing it out.:eek: Will definitely try the styrofoam in the docking station, and place additional mousetrap(s) in the basement - already caught 2 or 3 in the cabin. Thanks.:)

    3490rb

    According to the floorplan the queen bed reads w/underbed storage. When I lift the bed/mattress there is a thin board below which is bolted down - it is too flimsy to bear much weight, if any. Am I supposed to have underbed access or not? Thanks for the prompt reply.

    Poll: Overall Dealership Experience

    We were completely satisfied with Camping World RV in Wauconda, IL. We purchased our Big Country online and drove out there to trade. Our first weekend out we had a leak at the UDC fittings which we handled ourselves. So far, we have no complaints with the prep. Our local St. Albans, VT...

    Dealer Rant

    It definitely pays to shop around. We shopped online and actually drove 1,000 miles (in August) to the Chicago area to purchase our new Big Country (a 4-day road trip with 2 teenage girls). Our local dealer - 10 miles away - wouldn't budge on price. And he kindly said he would not service...
