    Using Rest Stops

    I think it's just a matter of preference. There are areas of the country where I would feel safe staying at a rest area overnight, and other areas that I wouldn't. Like everything in life you have to weigh the risks. The scariest night we've ever spent was at a Walmart in Salinas CA. That...

    Switches Question

    For the generator? You push the button next to the gauge up or down depending on what tank you want to check. If you're talking about the propane.... That's a whole different ball game. [emoji16]

    Changing my Mobile Internet Service Plan

    How "not cheap?" If you can't post prices, we would love to know. We may eventually running into a similar problem. How is the speed? Reliability? Sigh.

    No Shore Power - Help Please!

    We had a similar issue once, we lost power to half the camper. Everything worked on the generator. We assumed someone had messed with the cable the first time. We unplugged, re-plugged and it fixed itself. Then a while later the power issue came back. We checked everything, including the...

    Outdoor kitchen

    We have a small fridge in an outdoor compartment that is always closed. The fridge has been on constantly for over a year. No troubles. Unless you leave the fridge door open. Then there's a problem.

    Genesis 2 won't play some DVD's

    The problem is the DVD player is a cheapy from china and will only play some DVDs. At least it is if it is the one I think you're talking about. There might be a setting to change your region in the menu.

    Need Dining Table

    http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20104718/ We just put a table from ikea in. I love it. I collapses down to almost nothing and has six drawers. You should be able to replace with whatever suits your fancy! [emoji12]

    new cyclone collapsable roof ladder maybe for other toy haulers also???

    I'm the wife. How do you think I know how it feels. The hubby won't go up there either.

    Mattresses

    We got a crappy spring mattress and it needs to be replaced. Even a $300 mattress topper couldn't make it much better. Waiting for the cash to get a foam one to go under our nice topper.

    new cyclone collapsable roof ladder maybe for other toy haulers also???

    I think the weight listed was 300 lbs. It doesn't feel like it will hold 300 lbs though.

    Washer / Dryer - what do you have?

    If it was just the hubby and I and he didn't have uniforms to wash we could get by with doing laundry once a week. But with towels and four people (two being smallish kids) we do more laundry. We start a load in the morning and switch at lunch and switch at dinner, mostly. The kids share a...

    Has anyone upgraded to LED ?

    Almost all of ours are changed. We just bought the bulbs as opposed to the fixtures. They work well.

    EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: CA, TEMECULA - 10/31/2014 to 11/1/2014

    We won't be there this time. The hubster is out of the country at that time, and no way I'm going to try to tow this beast up alone! [emoji16] maybe I'll drive up for the meet and greet or something though!

    RW 310: New member introduction & question regarding securing the washer/dryer in the garage...

    There are foot anchors made for the splendide that may work. I can't find the link but any rv parts store should know what you need and show them to you. They are just metal brackets. You unscrew the front legs from the machine, slip them through a hole in the bracket then screw them back on...

    4100 living room update

    I love them! It has only been a day, but I feel like I have more viewing space because I don't have to worry about that 78" day/night shade breaking every time it goes up and down, and I can see out the entire window. (We almost never opened the big window past the half way point. I will post...

    4100 living room update

    New blinds are in and valances are removed. Now I need to make some new valances. [emoji16] You can see the table has both leafs dropped in this photo too.

    We full time currently and have spent months moving around in or RV with kids from age 6 months all the way up to 7 years. (We have been full time for two years, our eldest is seven, but every military move with kids has been done with an RV, often spending months on either end living in the RV...

    ATF: North Trail - Wallpaper in the kitchen counter area

    The tile looks beautiful. I'll put this in my "mommy-do-list" for next year. [emoji12] is the smart tile safe to use near the range?

    Trailer and bed clearance

    My sister worked for State Farm. Try again. You got someone on a bad day. Her favorite saying was "we even cover stupid" for when someone would put diesel in their convertible, blow up the engine and would want insurance to pay. If they pay for that they should pay for your much cheaper oopsie.

    HELP!! Can't find grey tank valve #2

    Have you looked under the slide? We had a camper once that required a crawl under the slide to pull the grey for the kitchen?

    Thanks Dave, I'll send those to my mom. I don't know if she's up for fixing it herself though. I'll try!

    Boise ID independent RV Service?

    My mom, in Boise ID is selling a trailer (sob) and needs a day/night shade restrung or at least a good contact so that she can give it to the buyer? Anyone know someone?

    Great Basin National Park, NV

    We have stayed at the KOA in Ely. It wasn't terrible. We have kids though and enjoyed the playground and they had an outdoor movie. The staff were friendly enough. I will tell you though, that we are the type of people that enjoy a small town. Ely is definitely that. :-)

    I-70 in CO

    Haha! Maybe we did see you then. We did see another Landmark after I posted. It even had a HOC ladder! The time frame would have been about right too. You wouldn't have noticed us- just another truck with no tow on the other side of the road. 😜 Enjoy your trip!

    I-70 in CO

    We are traveling east on I-70 in CO today. We have seen a road warrior and landmark heading west. Anyone else traveling? (No HOC plaques to be seen?) (We are in the big blue dodge but without the house!😜) Travel safe and have fun!!

    It took us quite a bit too. It's dark in that room and the plugs are dark too!! That's why we are here! 😜

    How do you use your Toy Hauler?

    We have a motorcycle that can go in the garage when we are traveling. But we are a part of the problem for you. We use it as a bedroom for the kids. It's a better feel than a bunk house model. It's great to have so much room for the kids since we full time.

    4100 King --- Week ONE observations

    We had the fantastic fan upgrade added when we bought the camper (all vents except the loft have fantastic fans). And Scottyb is right. If there is not a window open the odor from the tank gets sucked in. But it does a good job of getting the steam out. Did you get a blue bag for the manuals...

    4100 living room update

    The shades are next. Two of them are already broken. The factory installed the bottom grommets at such an angle that the strings shred each time they go up and down. I believe they are supposed to be positioned directly below the bottom of the blinds - not at a 30° angle towards the center of...

    4100 living room update

    After a year we decided we wanted a dining table. So our couch shrunk. We bought this table to go in the end. We may change the couch seating completely soon. And the shades will be changing soon as well. http://m.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/art/20104718/ I only wish the table came in...

    Drawer Slides

    I had to do the same thing. A few finish nails and some glue. I loaded my pots and pans too heavy. The bottoms in here leave something to be desired, but I do like it better than having them sit on the floor- which was the case in our first 5er, and the bottoms here are better than the last one...

    Best RVs for full timing families?

    I found the loft to be very cramped. But I'm not 7 or 9. 😁 they may love it- they may not. I don't know about having both kids up there simply because one would have to climb over the other to get out and use any facilities. But- you have a bed above the table. And we lost some loft space by...
