Hi, We have a 2013 North Trail 21FBS Caliber edition. We had the "Bright" idea to change the 921 type 12volt light bulbs to LEDs. Bought a 6 pack of 921 replacements from Camping World. Lo and Behold, when we got the old bulbs out (It was tough to get them out), there's no way the replacements...

Hi, We have a 2013 North Trail Caliber Edition 21 FBS. The floor of the shower around the drain has no support! As a result, the drain pipe where it attaches to the drain broke and caused leaking. I feel that this design could be greatly improved. I've braced the floor as good as I can, but...

I'm sorry, but this makes no sense. I can't figure out what you're talking about.

Hi, I'll be taking delivery of a 2013 NT21FBS next month. I preparation for purchasing a WD hitch with sway control, I was wondering if any one could tell me the size of the a frame to the hitch? I need to order clamps of either 3", 4" 5" or 6", & I don't have access to the trailer to measure...

Does anyone have thoughts on the new "Andersen Hitches Weight Distribution Hitch"? Here is a link to a Youtube video on it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRoQ_yQZQwQ

Thanks for the responses guys. I'll probably get me one of those "EAZ-lifts" just to be safe & keep the wife calm.

Hi, I'll be picking up my new 2013 NT21FBS Caliber Edition in the next few weeks. I'll be pulling it with the same Ford F250 Superduty Diesel that I've been using to tow my 2008 Big Country. I'm wondering about the consensus on whether I will need to use a load leveling hitch or sway bar on...

Hey, You guys were exactly right. I took the cover off my breaker box, & the black wire from the breaker for the AC was very loose. It pulled right out of the clamp on the breaker. I reinserted it, tightened it down good, & fixed my problem. Thanks

Hi, The dealer installed a carier high profile AC unit in the bedroom of our 2008 BC 3300 RL. We have measured from the top of the front AC using a 2x4 & level to the ground & measure 13'7". We make it a policy to not try going under anything less than 14'.

Here in Texas my dealer recommended adding an additional AC for the bedroom, so we did and it worked fine. It is a Carrier Air V Standard Unit. However, since you need a 50 amp hookup to use both AC's it hasn't had much use. Now that we have the rig on the road and are able to plug into 50...

The dealer included "Carefree of Colorado" slide awnings with our 2008 BC 3300rl, so I don't know what the cost is. I have no complaints about the operation, but they do flap in the wind, which I assume any brand will do if the wind is strong enough. We are full timers, so, when we are going...

Regrets Hi Jay, It is with deep reget that I have to report that Debbie & I won't be able make the rally in Spring. I had surgery on my driving foot last week, & I'm not allowed to drive for 3 to 4 weeks. Debbie doesn't have confidence in handling the rig yet, so we'll have to bow out this...

Be aware that these scams can appear to come from any bank, credit card co. or financial instituion. I've received them apparently from companies I don't even have an account with. They just do a mass mailing & if they get a 1% response they hit paydirt. Can't believe every thing in your...

Thanks Guys, That makes perfect sense. It would make even more sense if it went to the bedroom. I can confirm that the rear connector goes to the entertainment center. One reason that Directv won't work on a particular tv is if you are trying to send the signal from the receiver to the tv on...

I have a 2008 Big Country. In the docking station I have one coaxial connection for cable, but two connections for satelite. I find one satelite connector inside the rig. Does any one know where the other satelite connector connects to, or what it's there for? :confused:
