I'm addicted to YouTube. Unfortunately. But what I came across is that from snow melting and perhaps water pooling from not melting evenly across the roof is that there is a possibility water could pool around the ac and enter the rv. After a few years result from noticeable water damage or...

My new truck gets 4-5 mpg increase because of the diesel. I don't pull much so I will never see the benefit, but hey.....Abigail turbo diesel truck.....it's a guy thing....sweet.....100% worth it!

I hear ya on all your points. I agree. I love my truck it is great. I don't need it; I only do shorter trips,but I really wanted the cab and I have wanted a diesel for a long time. Point I was making, but probably didn't do a good job at it is that if you are doing allot of towing a turbo d is...

Diesel power magazine this summer. All 3 r great. Ford Chevrolet more torque than dodge but how often do u do full throttle pulls? That is the point they were making. No urea in dodge yet. The test shows it's about the features, looks, and comfort. Each one has it's pluses and minuses from each...

Interesting I had the similar setup as the previous post. North trail 31qbs and a 2003 hemi. Did ok 55mph 7mpg. Now I have a 2006 cummins 3/4 ton. 16mpg highway or city empty. 11mpg towing best ever 65mph. When u r test-driving don't look at the trip computer. Nobody on the diesel forums has...

Discount tire had 215's cheaper than the 205's. Load rating about 50 lb per tire more. Lifetime warranty for cracking as long as it has legal tread. Won't ever have to buy another tire again! Forget covering them in the sun. Sooner they crack sooner I get new tires! Has to be too good to be...

Someone had some great photos of putting a 20 gallon water tank under the seat. I can't find it. Anyhow, looking at this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-RV-Camper-Fresh-Water-Tank-16-Gallon-/200589836744?pt=Motors_RV_Trailer_Camper_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2eb41601c8#ht_2322wt_769...

Thanks for everyone's advise. I will call hl when I return home. Appreciate your time. Hope for the best but since there is no water leaks I will prob try to live with it if no love from hl. Non tire wear on the tracking, I will try to follow it down the road. Regards to the microwave, the...

Just an observation from a window of my house. And installing camco vent cover. As far as the micro and slide issues; I don't think I should have had to spend my time driving to my dealer. The trailer should have never left the factory in that condition. Luckily I have a very helpful dealer. I...

Dealer was great with the microwave oven and they fixed my slide. All during warranty. I have the north trail 31qbs. Haven't mentioned to the dealer about the tracking issue. I just noticed it with the new truck because the mirrors slide out so far. Tried my best to parallel a straight...

Installed a couple of vent covers to find out I have a soft spot in my roof! Dealer comes to look at it doesn't see where water would come in. They suspect that the roofing plywood has shifted somehow so that portion isn't supported properly. Here's the kicker. It's a 2009! I bought it in...

I have the same rig.

If I decide to upgrade my wheels and tires it would be nice if they lasted longer than my previous tires of 3 years. Our boat had 15 years on the trailer. Stored indoors nd summer and winters. Do tire covers keep the tires lasting a long time or should I take the 2 that r in the sun from oct...

Thanks for that. Ur right, I forgot about d's. Folk's dump trailer has 4-3500lb tires. I believe it was load range e. My cousin got a blowout and it took off his stairs! And the side of his trailer got some good damage. We have a 2000 mile trip next summer. I want a tire that can withhold up...

I wish I could get some better tires. I would like radial tires load e, but I'm not getting much luck. I figure the better tire could extend my luck not getting a blow out on the highway.
