Thats a good point! I just read an article about the difference between the two places and apparently you don't want to get the two mixed up! I also found an article on
https://www.truckcampermagazine.com/camper-reviews/flexarmor-spray-on-roof-installation-and-review/
about it and I'm...
After reading about that, I think it's something I'd be interested in looking at more in detail! Keep me/us posted on any other research you come across or if you have it done and I'll do the same. I'm really thinking this is fixing to be a project I undergo within the next couple months, that...
I'll look into that for sure, something else besides these rubber roofs has been on my mind since our very first camper. I always see 3 points of failure and that's the roof, the skylights and the caulk on all the seams. I've even went as far as thinking about rhino lining the entire camper...
Not trying to hijack your thread by the way! [emoji1787] It's just a thought I've been wondering about for awhile now since hail damage is common where we live.

We're in roughly the same boat as y'all are Erica, I don't think our RV roof sustained any damage I looked up there twice but the vehicles did and I probably won't file a claim for them. Along the same lines of this topic I was reading about a company in California that does a Rhino Liner roof...
Haha no kidding about the older ones feeling like a garden tractor compared to these new ones!! I've had several diesel trucks but they've always been mid 90's model and older until my 2016 and now my 2019. Those old ones are easy to work on if they break compared to these new ones which now I'd...
I definitely agree, it would be nice to have one in both locations depending on what all features you have on there. For us it only controls the leveling process so it doesn't make sense for ours to be inside the RV and would be much more beneficial to be in the basement like your talking about...
Our RV doesn't have the wifi option unfortunately which is one of the reasons I pulled it off to see what kind of ports were on the back of the device so I could maybe install one. If you do manage to connect it to a router or hotspot you'd even be able to log in to that router or hotspot away...
That would definitely be a long hike back to the front of the vehicle! There's been a couple times we've ran into situations like that where you can't tell how close you are to something and it can be a bit nerve racking sometimes! I wound up pulling into a one direction traffic flow campsite...
That was one of the biggest reasons I went with a Progressive Industries and not another manufacturer, I have been entertaining a Hugh's Autoformer though just because they are an EMS system plus a voltage booster and if I run into a campground that won't allow the usage of voltage boosters I...
Something to this effect is what I'm talking about, some companies make systems with detachable monitors in various sizes and also various size cameras or you can use your phone as the monitor. Then just pair this system with an AC-DC power inverter and you'd be golden and save a ton of money...
Whew that is definitely pricey! You could get a power inverter plug that into your truck, and then an all in one household security system to plug into that inverter and it would do the same thing and you'd be looking at maybe 500.00 tops.
By the way how do you like the camera in your grill...
I was just talking to my wife the other day (before reading this kind of scary you read my mind [emoji39]) about hooking a wifi adapter or bluetooth adapter to the LCD panel or copying the software to another device such as our phones so we could connect and operate everything remotely. I even...
We use a Progressive Industries surge protector as well and I swear by it, one of the best and smartest investments you can buy! We had a fellow who sure could've used one about a month ago when the pedestal wound up toasting his inverter, fridge and AC. His insurance is going to cover the...
I like reading these posts, you can always learn new things. I've done quite a bit of research on secondary AC's and I've never ran across one of these. I'm going to have to research this for more information. My wife and I discussed using one of those portable AC's that sit in the middle of the...
Congratulations! We love our Ram 3500, it's really impressive to see the difference going from an older 90's model diesel to these new ones.

That's looking really good so far! When we had our M33 I thought about doing exactly the same thing your doing and in exactly the same place, although I never got around to it but it sure would've made things easier! I'll be curious to see your end result so I can try to imagine if mine would've...
I entertained having the place we purchased our RV from install it but after reading so many horror stories I figured I'd do it so if it got messed up I could only blame myself. I'm glad after running into the issue that I went that option just for the concern that someone could've easily cut...
I looked at those but my biggest concern is that if it leaks anywhere it'll be at the hose connections and it'll spray all over the wall and maybe the floor so the design build I had in mind is basically like a putting the washing machine encased in a waterproof box with the drain leading to the...
I know you said you checked all the GFCI but in our Mallard M33 we had the same issue turned out to be a hidden GFCI plug located in the master bedroom I almost lost my mind trying to troubleshoot the problem so basically long story short look for plugins all over the place sometimes they are...
Not yet, it's definitely on my list but the reason it isn't done yet is because I'm going to build one from scratch, put a drain in the pan leading to the exterior, as well as an electronic water shutoff that senses leaks within the drain pan and will electronically close the water valves and...
Thanks! I know after washing about 5 loads so far I absolutely love it, it is really quite almost can't tell it's even running, but the spin cycle does shake the camper pretty good, nothing too bad but you can feel it. It's a GE washer 24" model number
GFW148SSMWW it's the only 24" washer that...
I just called Heartland, I've been so busy I hadn't had the time. The customer service dept is absolutely outstanding! I went through one prompt spoke with a person and she transferred me to the service department and the gentlemen got everything squared away and is sending me some contact paper...
I think an interior access panel would've been a nice option so I could've seen what was behind the wall before sticking a cutting wheel through it and then I could have cut the 4" hole into the access panel. I'd be worried water damage might get into the RV if the exterior came from the factory...
If we didn't live full time in ours we probably wouldn't do a washer and dryer either but even waiting this week for them to deliver our washer has been the longest week ever I'm hoping it's in by next week! It makes doing our laundry so much more convenient.

Hahaha!! [emoji1787] not laughing at their expense but your response is hilarious! I could have only imagined had they cut through that what would have happened! I'm so glad they questioned it before hand! Could you imagine having a dryer hose in your shower, that's one for the imagination haha...
I've done a few of them but this website here should help more than me explaining it. Hopefully it helps!

I got so busy today that it completely slipped my mind to call Heartland until just now and now they are closed so I'll have to do it tomorrow. Sometimes I have CRS disease [emoji1787]

Definitely no worries on hijacking the thread, that's a good question. I'd wonder the same thing. I would like to imagine that as long as it sits near an exterior wall that so long as you could avoid pipes, wiring and braces you should be good but I definitely don't claim to be a professional by...
I don't have any personal experience with the Reese but I've heard several people not talk very highly of them. You could look into the Anderson hitch it's lightweight and easily removable. I almost went that route with the Anderson but chose a B&W companion instead since I figure I'll rarely...
That would definitely be big enough, I'll give them a call here in a couple hours and see what they can do. I bet I could probably measure a 4" hole in the contact paper and slide it on the dryer vent tube and then adhere it to the wall. I'll try that with a paper template first and see if it...
I definitely agree with the stud finder! I should've used one but I didn't want to purchase it for just one hole although it probably would've saved me a bit of time and trouble!
When I cut out the fiberglass portion on the exterior I used the drill in reverse to score it but realized how...
I didn't think about that, I'll give them a call and see if they have a little bit. It wouldn't take too much to cover that back up I think a small piece about 8" X 8" would work. Maybe even smaller I'll have to measure before calling them. I was pretty careful not to take out more wall than...
This is the final interior pic before hooking up the dryer! I'll still need to fill in the styrofoam I removed and attach an access panel but beyond that it looks golden!
