    Bias ply or Radial tires ??

    Jeez, my last post sounds like I'm selling the tires. LOL We had new Maxxis radials put on our trailer Saturday, we are so happy! Now we can travel a little safer we hope. Glen said he didn't notice much difference, but then again he only had to tow the trailer 4 miles home.

    What's with closing many of the Sundance Threads???

    Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering why so many north Trail Threads were closed.

    Bias ply or Radial tires ??

    We stopped by our local tire shop, it's been run by the same local family for decades and decades, the owner said he can get Maxxis tires for us. I've been doing loads of reading the last few days and except for one lone person, I haven't read anything bad about Maxxis tires, quite the contrary.

    Booth or dinette

    Booth, I have been camping for 55 years (since childhood) in rigs with booths, it's just not camping for me if I don't have a booth to sit at and play cards and backgammon.

    Bias ply or Radial tires ??

    Thank you fellow North Trailers :) We have already decided, since a couple hours ago, after much reading that yes of course radials are the only way to go. Now we just have to figure out which brand to get.

    Bias ply or Radial tires ??

    Need to pick the brains of other trailerites. We are going to replace our tires on our trailer. One is cracked, so no sense waiting for the others to follow suit! We have been reading how much better Radial's are than Ply tires, we are pretty sure we will get Radial ST trailer tires. But I'd...

    simple survey -Travel with Refrigator On?

    We always leave it on and in the 2 Motorhomes we had prior to this TT we left it on all the time too.

    New 2011 NT 26LRSS TT

    side to side, we just put the same size boards under both of the tires on the low side, we carry various sizes. We have also found that we leave the side with the slide-out a bit on the high side, after we run the slide out, the trailer will be level then.

    Travel with blinds up or down?

    The only blinds we had were behind the kitchen sink and I put up an extension rod and hung up some nice little curtains, because the blinds drove nuts. But when they were there, we kept them up while going down the road. The pleaded blinds are usually up, except the one by the bed.

    Slide Leaks Rain Water into Trailer

    Pretty much. There is still some slight dampness when the slide is out and it is raining cats and dogs. It's behind the couch, right where the bottom seam of the slide is. We have redone all the caulking and got a new seal, you name, it is has been done. Hang in there tomsheathillside, I felt...

    Take it easy on the Heartland wannabe!

    We really do like this trailer, we are getting ready for another 2 week trip, going to to Idaho and Montana. Last year we went to Northern California and had a blast going down bumpy old hilly highway 101. For two people and a Schnauzer we have loads of room. Ah yes it is a great quote and so...

    Take it easy on the Heartland wannabe!

    I don't want to get acused of bashing. We had a lot of ongoing problems when we got our trailer last year. The majority of them were the ongoing slide leak, no it didn't leak when it was in or going down the road. We have an awning topper and we like it, it keeps crap from falling on the top of...
