Well, got DH to sit and listen for it, and found the old, battery powered detector sitting in a cabinet, not the hardwired one at all. So thanks for getting all your thinking caps on, maybe the power of you all made him hear where it was coming from.

While packing for first trip after winter, I noticed a chirping that seemed to come from the smoke detector, but when I checked, there was no place for batteries, and it appears to be hardwired into the battery. Do they do that? The sound comes about every minute and doesn't sound like an alarm...

Thanks for all the info I wanted. Guess I'll stick with the Michelin.

But they're not ST tires, are they? If they're not, how are they different from truck tires?

I've seen a lot of people saying the Sailun tires are great trailer tires, and of course, there are the venerable goodyear g series. Why do all the tv tire buyers go for Michelin, are these great trailer tires not good for trucks?

We still have the portadeck and used it for a month last year. I think it was more stable than steps just because of the handles you can hold on to.

We settled on both - attached the GlowStep, and carry the Porta steps for extended stays. Ugly but effective

Wow, that's great. Guess a little one to carry a generator wouldn't be a problem, then. - - - Updated - - - But it just occurred to me, is there a better way to carry a generator than with one of those hitch-attached platforms?

I'd like to have one of those boxes on a platform to carry my generator on the back of our 2009 Bighorn, but ours didn't come with a hitch receiver to add the box. Can any unit be retrofitted with a hitch receiver to add one of these platforms/boxes?

Thanks, I"ll look for them.

Is there an easy way to take off the countertop?

Before I tackle installing the clips, I'm going to have to get to the underside and clean out all the junk I've put in the space, and to do that I'm going to have to remove at least the top shelf under the sink, if not both. Is there an orderly way to do this, or just start tearing out screws...

Yes, we're still board tossers - is there a better way?

Thanks, glad I asked. One thing I've learned about RVs is don't take shortcuts.

Dumb question but I'm still tired from moving and got all the slides out and stuff strewn around and found out I wasn't even and have to move again. Can I move the trailer with all the slides still out? I've seen another manufacturer do it, but haven't had the pleasure of being at the Heartland...
