    Shoot...was hoping to add another obstacle to potential thieves, but if they are smart and disconnect the battery they can just pull the unit.... :-/

    M32 Stolen - now what?

    Just an update and followup Q....unit was never recovered (not that police actually actively did anything). Insurance covered 70% of value...I suppose that's better than nothing :-/ For our new unit I upgraded to a Masterlock Trailer Locks #389DAT that should make it a litte harder. Would it...

    M32 Stolen - now what?

    The hitch lock was a masterlock, hardened steel. They had a metal grinder to get thru it (as well as the storage gate)...clearly pros. All other compartments were std locks, battery disconnect etc. Hope the VIN can get recorded with Heartland etc as stolen : 5SNFB3426HE323462

    M32 Stolen - now what?

    Our M32 was stolen from 290 Storage in Cypress, TX last night together with another PUMA trailer. Police is on the way, but camera footage seems to grainy. What next? Highly customized, tons of personal items in it. Where would a stolen unit go? Try to sell or slaughter?

    Mallard M32 - Replace A/C & Heat Control Thermostat

    It's taken some time but I eventually replaced it with a basic digital home unit from Lowes. Other than connecting both fans speeds togther, it all works as intended and much better temp control than b4.

    Brake Help Needed

    Soooo...they finally came out with the CORRECT parts after more than 2 weeks. Supposedly there is an upgraded axle on this unit and a bigger brake assembly is needed. Long story, after they assembled it I took the rig for a spin and even with the brake controller cranked to full 10.0 now, I...

    Well, mobile installer came out today and we decided to get all 4 brake units replaced. He took one of the old ones to the parts supplier and obtained the exact manufacturer and model parts....however the bolt pattern does not fit, new bolts are spaced further out. RV is 2017 model, parts were...

    Brake Help Needed

    Brought RV home from storage today and it made metallic noises in one of the wheels. Upon closer look a spring hung out of the brake disc assembly and upon removal of the wheel and brake cover, additional parts (adjusting nuts?) fell out. What to do next?

    ISO simple add-on AC option for bunkhouse

    Good Morning fellow campers. We have an M32 (30A !) and the bunkhouse heating/cooling is sub-par to say the least. Already inspected all ducting for obstructions and straight routing from the inside access covers. All good now there. However I am not taking down the underbelly cover to...
