Hello All, Does anyone have a Kinro Window Emergency latch broken. The one that is about 5" long, not the 9" one. If so, please file a complaint with http://www.safercar.gov/ I have been trying for over 10 months to get one. If anyone has a part number for the short latch with the metal...

Hello all, Wanting to buy a Honda EU2000iS. Presently in the RGV till April 1. Then in SW Mo. please contact by e mail, not by posting on the forum jimlyndabrooks at yahoo dot com Thanks Jim

If you want something bullet proof, the new '13/'14 Ram with the Asian. My '12 Ram 3500 DRW is probably the quietest, best fit and finish truck I have ever had. If you do not need to tow 30K, the 350/800 engine is plenty with the 68RFE tranny is a good performer. I am very pleased with that...

Pulling a 5th wheel with a F150. Yea, I know I am close to the limits. Got me a diesel, will pull anything, bought the SRW. Just go slow, you SHOULD be OK. Put air bags on to level it up. (ie:yes I am overloaded, but it's level now) What happened to making sure you had the correct tow...

You will find that those of us that have been doing this for a while are all driving DRW trucks. The newer guys, guys that need a daily driver, still working, will tell you a SRW truck will PULL anything. And, Yes they are correct they will pull anything. But with a trailer that has a 14K...

OK, Discount tire has a 235/85/16G tire for $159.00 You can not buy a good LT E tire for that. What do you weigh on the axles? Do you need a G rated tire? Will a good E rated tire work? This is just another cheep China tire. Please tell us you are going to pass on this.

I have the TST 507RV system. I did not need a repeater for the 5th wheel, but when I double tow the 2nd trailer would drop out. I called TST told them my problem, they sent me a repeater and said try it and call them. I did, it worked and a month later I called them and paid for it. The...

Hi, You will see a lot of folks doing what you are considering. Pulling a 5th wheel with a truck that is not rated for that weight. If the GVWR of the trailer is 15K figure 20% for pin weight that is 3,000lbs for pin weight. Take your truck to a scale. a truck stop, grain elevator, etc, and...

Dave, I am looking at buying a older NuWa product. They used Lippert Frames on some of their smaller units and found they were not satisfactory for their heavier units. I just got off the phone from a owner of a NuWa DA 329 on a Lippert Frame. He has traded this unit in on a new HH and in...

TravelTiger, you are missing the point. I fulltimmed for 10 years, did a lot of miles. Never did I have a issue with my Newmar 5th Frame. Yes, the hot water heater needed a elec element, $10. A few broken drawer mount brackets, new screws maybe a buck, all things I could fix. But to have the...

This why I am considering a Excel.

Matt, Is your 2012 F350 a SRW or DRW?

Whoops, maybe someone with a 3010 can pull a tape on the inside length. You for sure need 9' with bumpers on a 800 S Jim

I have a 800 S LE and am considering a 3010. I have bumpers also. That said, I have a 6 x 10 trailer and it fits on it with plenty of room to spare so with a 10' cargo area I would think you would have plenty of room. My RZR is 60" wide and about 9' long. Jim

Hello Willie: I'll try to help. 1. Solar can be used to charge any type of re-chargable battery, so no, you do not need to change batteries. However in a house battery use, true deep cycle types are better and the golf cart batteries fit that. 2. As to size just to keep the battery up...
