Ours are treated wood and we have never had an splitting, we do bevel the one end.

We have one and it generally works well, have only used it when greasing the bearings each year. We have 16" tires and find we need to put a piece of wood under it to get the tire high enough.

No. I use wood. These look useless and plastic breaks down in the sun. To protect your tire from damage the entire tire should be on a block, these look like they wouldn't be wide enough and you would still need wood if you needed to level to a different height. We have 3 pieces of wood. 2...

We had this problem in a previous trailer and put a shim by the handle to make sure they would stay closed. We do have one vent with a Maxair and travel with that one open in the hot weather.

We bought a Lazyboy also, i think it was a Pinnacle. Make sure you measure everything. It was in the 400-500 dollar range.

Someplace I heard they need to be run with the high fan setting.

Why don't you get a half and half. I have seen that in trailers. 1 side is a booth and the other side are 2 chairs. Keep you both happy.

There is a website called www.rvservicereviews.com why don't you post your experiences with both places for everyone's education and knowledge.

Cherry Hill is a good park, has bus service from the park to the Metro. There are some county parks that are very nice. I think they are on the west side, close to the Metro also. Try RVparkreviews.com and see what is close by.

We stay in Pioneer RV Park near Anthem, has park models but they are only in one section, rest of park is for trailers. Usually a lot of space, I guess it is about an hour from Mesa. We visited a park in Mesa(?), it was way out off of US60 but it was for trailers only, no park models. I don't...

With these blowouts one never knows how the tires were treated being delivered to the dealer or by the individual getting the blowout. If you are a good Rver you make sure your tires have the correct load and inflation, many people never even check their tires on a regular basis. I bet these are...

Lifetime memberships come and go. I think you need to be a member to get the offer for one, not sure.

The other thing to remember is there are a lot of campgrounds that aren't in any books and don't advertise. They will generally be in the state directory but not any other. There are several smart phone apps that might help also.

If you are looking for inexpensive camping have you considered boondocking, National Forests, State, county and national parks?

After replacing ours 3 times we bought a Flojet at Camping World. The water pump pumps the water from the tank to your system when you aren't hooked up to city water.

We stay in Falling Waters CG, Falling Waters WV. Good overnight stop. A few miles off of I81.

WE have been happy with Chesapeake RV Solutions in Chesapeake, VA-great prices and does a very thorough PDI, never have had to have the trailer serviced in 4 years.

I agree with the electric reel, that 50a wire is heavy.

We have been rving for 40 years and have never considered a level up. We rarely use our boards to get the trailer level, most sites are good enough for us. If we are camping for a long period of time(1 week plus) then we get a bit more serious about being reasonably level, mostly so the...

We have a Garmin GPS with lifetime maps(FYI). Downloaded from some website(had to pay) low clearances to the Garmin. Works great. The only confusion is sometimes when going over a low clearance the Garmin signals us.

Milton, Check your tire pressure and while you are at it the mfg. date of the tires. Sometimes tire separation is due to low pressure in tires. Also, the mfg. date should be within 6-9 months for the tires.

Call Heartland Service with your Vin number and they wiol be able to tell you.

We redid our basement this past winter. We were close to a Home Depot which had a great selection of plastic totes. We went and bought a big selection, emptied the entire basement and started organizing. DW is much better at figuring out these things and can imagine what crates fit where so she...

We would just leave the spigot dripping a little after unhooking the hose.

Our BH has ducted air and it is a 2009 I think. I am not sure what you mean by arched ceilings but the ceiling is very high in the BH, don't see why it would need to be arched. Not sure what a frameless window is but really don't care. I look at the quality of the build and the layout of the...

One solution I have seen was to get a garden sprayer and fill that up. We usually go through truck washes near the end of a trip, simple solution and they do a good job.

I agree Morryde weighs the rig and puts on the correct IS so I would not have any concerns there. Why don't you get your rig weighed so you have a better idea. Ideally a 4 tire weighing would be best but a truck scale would work for now.

You need to use common sense when using any GPS. People blindly following the GPS route are the ones that get into trouble.

We just put the trailer in storage but looked underneath and there were no foam blocks visible nor did they ever look like they had been there(assuming we should be able to see them). Will give HL a call.

We travel Sept-Jan each year. We have a DNS waiver. In August I called up had my locals turned off and the DNS turned on. Once verified that they were working we picked up our S&B receiver and put it in the trailer and off we went. They added the $15/month to our account for the DNS service...

When our kitchen slide is in and we travel in rain the floor is wet when we pull into the campground. I have looked at the slide when in and there is no seal that I can see. Has anyone had this problem and come up with a solution? I am thinking about putting a strip of garage door sealer along...

I would recommend going to the Escapees Forum at www.rvnetwork.com. There is a discussion going on right now. We have had DNSservice on and off for years. We just take our receiver form the house and put it into the RV. We have a waiver at Direct TV saying we can have DNS feeds. It costs $15 for...

We have put in the "tent" modification, blocked the vents in the bedroom as they extend past the actual vents and pulled the vents out of the ceiling(that gave a lot more air).

You might want to stop at Chesapeake RV Solutions in Chesapeake, VA. He is a discounter and we boght from him. Extremely happy. Rig came in good shape, he does an excellent PDI, checks out the entire rig for leaks etc. He doesn't like you coming back with a lot of little things. next trailer we...

We use Dawn blue detergent(around 1/3 c) and 6 Polident tablets(6 are on a strip, only reason for 6). Early this year we just used the Dawn and stopped using the Polident, had all sorts of problems with the tank sensors. Put the Polident back into the equation and everything is fine. We buy the...

If you want to confirm which is which, just put food coloring in one tank. When you pull the valve, if it comes out red, you have your answer as to which valve is which.

Several years ago there was a problem with the landing gear fuse(or circuit breaker) being too small. Replacing it with an 80 amp solved the problem.

Just remember to check the tanks for the switch over so you can get the empty tank filled up.

We use our tanks for water during the cold weather. All we hook up when on the road is electricity, if we are camping for an extended I would get the heat tape but still keep my tanks full. Rather than the heater we use a light bulb behind the UDC(regular bulb) and it works great. Also provides...
