    Rv Glow

    We were in Ft. Wilderness in January. Neighbors who looked like they lived there all winter did this every night. Plus had red flood lights stuck in the ground.

    Whole house type surge protector

    Ditto for us. About a month after I bought mine (non-hard wired 50 amp version) we plugged into a county park on the beach about an hour away. Middle of night it kicked off - I knew this as it got real hot with no a/c. Problem was low voltage from the pedastal. So I ran an extension cord...

    Where would be the best place to advertise our 5th wheel for sale?

    Only responses I have ever gotten from Craigslist in the past were the scammers. It's probably too far away from you, but I highly recommend PPL in Houston to sell your camper. They have a huge lot that is stuffed and they get a ton of business. We sold a very used 2006 SOB for way more...

    Insurance??????

    Not just TH's. Just got a quote on a new TT we are getting. Wanted almost $800 a year. Guess I'll be staying with TX Farm Bureau for about 1/2 that. Good Sam just doesn't seem competitive on much of anything anymore. They wouldn't even offer us financing so I went to Ally and got really...

    elephant ear jack pads

    OK - now your just showing off. Those wooden landing pads on the ground are way too neat.

    Your Pet Peeve!

    When other people think because I drive a truck I want all their $#!t thrown in the bed of it because they are too lazy to find a trash can.

    Wheel Failure???

    When I bought my North Trail, it came with 15" tires. But when I got around to installing my ProPride hitch, I had to remove the spare. Had never looked at it in the month or so I had owned it. It was 14". I called Heartland and within a couple of weeks they shipped a new 15" wheel...

    Tow Chains broke free

    Thanks, I will. I was wondering if the chains were techinically part of the frame, and maybe it was covered under a separate warranty for longer than one year. If not - thats OK too - but it never hurts to ask.

    Tow Chains broke free

    This past weekend coming home, our tow chains broke free from the frame right after we took off. I have no idea how this happened, same length as always, hooks in same place on tow vehicle, front jack all the way up, hitch bars tightened the same as we have been using for the last...

    When will Pioneer be recognized on the forum?

    Interesting. I can click on your links and get to them. But when I start at Heartland Home, I can't find them without a lot of extra clicks. They are not under lightweight trailer tab nor the travel trailer tab. And the Mallards at least are pretty sparse on the information - almost...

    Money to spend

    Sounds like the campground we stayed at on Quintana Beach. Ours tripped in the middle of the night, noticed when I woke up hot and the a/c off. Went outside and it showed 98 V. At 3 am I fished around and found my 30amp extension cord and ran it to the empty site next door, which was...

    Large Families, are you purchasing toy haulers to sleep everyone comfortably?

    I wonder if the make a single "lift" bunk that I could add after the fact, I'll have to do some digging around on the web for that. This is what I was afraid of, I would want to leave a decent enough path around the bed for kids to wander around. In my research, I am definately going to...

    Large Families, are you purchasing toy haulers to sleep everyone comfortably?

    Something similar to this has crossed my mind. I figured, if I was going to have to make all these mods to a new unit, why? Just buy a fairly new used unit with the walls in the right place, and take out the extra entertainment centers, etc that they all put in that use up bunk space...

    When will Pioneer be recognized on the forum?

    And apparently, I've lost my reading comprehension. That's Prowler that shows up on the left side list. My apologies. I find the Pioneer units when I use the RV Buyers Guide on the website, same as the Mallard units.

    Camco quickdisconnects for outside water spray hoses

    Don't know if it would work or not, but Camco makes the propane tank cover for our travel trailer. The pop-up access door on top blew off soon after we bought the trailer. I called Camco, looking to buy one - the lady answering was extremely friendly and just dropped one in the mail to...
