    Chaco Canyon - Gallo Campground Accessibilty

    We have a 33 foot Sundance 5th wheel. Do we want to tow it to this campground mid October 2018? It looks like dirt roads. Someone told me to beware. What insight can you offer and if we do not camp at Gallo, where to stay that is not too far outside the park. Thanks so much!

    Great Basin NP through to Estes Park and then south in the early fall

    We are forward planning for 2018. Where are you that it will be snowing this weekend? We were looking at RMNP for Sept 11 - 14 or so. Is that too early for color? Thanks!

    Cannot figure out how to edit my signature!

    I am a junior member. It still does not allow me to edit. Do I need to pay some money to get elevated membership status or something like that? Thanks for the help. And yes, I do click "edit profile" but no choices to edit show up anywhere!

    San Francisco Bay Area to Crested Butte Colorado

    We are looking to plan a longer trip to Colorado next fall. Hoping to get to Crested Butte in time to see fall color without getting into snow! We want a trip that will take us through some more national parks (have already done the Colorado Plateau). We can be out on the road 5-6 weeks. We...

    Warantee Work Taking Forever, and What's up with the Bad Recliners?

    Well, it appears that it was a huge mistake for us to go to Camping World. After digging for more info, calling Heartland, and speaking with the managers up there we learned that after the long wait to have a technician look at the rig, the front office sat on the paperwork needed to sent up to...

    Warantee Work Taking Forever, and What's up with the Bad Recliners?

    We own a 2015 Sundane 3000 MK. It has already developed issues - outside decal peeling off, recliners will not recline, kitchen drawers open during transit, faulty seal in the shower. Since we live in Oakland, CA and there are no dealers around here (we bought the rig in So Cal), we dropped it...

    Polymer Resin "gel coat" on new Sundance

    Our Sundance is actually 6 months old and we were thinking about how to wax it. A Camping World RV service center which is doing some warantee work for us says that they will apply this Polymer Resin to our 33 foot rig for $675. What do you all think? I read about how everyone waxes their gel...

    33 foot Sundance in Jedediah Smith State Park?

    We are taking our new Sundance 3000 MK 5th wheel up the coast to the redwoods next week. We are dying to camp in Jed Smith. The stated length limit for trailers is 31 feet. When I called the ranger, he told me that the sites are plenty large enough for us but the roads and turning is tricky...

    Setting up 12 Volt System for Best Dry Camping and CPAP Use

    We are brand new owners of a great Sundance 3000 MK. 4 nights so far! We have some specific questions related to batteries and dry camping and using my CPAP. I'll try to be specific! 1. We have one flooded 12 volt battery. 2. I was told to have a dedicated 12 volt line put into the bedroom...

    My truck-and-5'er combo is right at the limit on pin weight ... safety issue?

    Once we get the 3000MK and camp a few days in it, our next stop is going to be a scales to get some real-world weights on the thing. Then we drive home over the Tejon pass north of L.A.--that will tell me how well it handles the steep grades. Thanks, everyone, for your comments. This gives me...
