Here is a tip for Canadians using their credit cards in the US and finding they have to enter a Zip code. For me my Postal Code is M1E3P9 I drop the letters and enter the numbers 13900 . This will over ride the Zip Code problem. Martin

We have a 2006 Grand Canyon the dishwasher was an option. I do not think there are any negatives as others have suggested about to these machines. We use it every day, and it does a great job, only the odd large pan has to be hand washed. We do not miss the oven at all, we rarely used when we...

You might want to check with Canadian Customs before you leave as your visitors from Europe might need a visa to enter Canada. If you cross at Detroit you can fill up with fuel at the Duty free gas bar.

Re: Entertainment all set for Urbanna, VA Rally Will carpet cleaning be available during the rally? I thought that the topic had come up earlier.

I have not received this email. Martin

Unfortunately, I was unable to try one of Nellie's muffins at the Rally and wondered if anyone has the recipe for them. Thank you. Heather

I should have included the word fresh, packaged processed and frozen food should be OK as it has a processors name and where the item come from. They do not want to see loose items not knowing where they came from. Martin

When I cross in either direction I do not carry fruit and vegetables and have no problems. Martin

Mike: I have had the same problem with my fridge every time it comes out of storage, I used it 12 days ago and today when I went to light it today it would not light. The problem appears to be corrosion of some kind on the ignition prongs. As in the past I wiped them with my finger then started...

Put us on the list: Martin and Heather Pope Martin

George: I have an 06 Grand Canyon, I am sure that I replaced the bulb or at least had it apart. The bulb number is H3-14V-35 watt, this is the same bulb for the security lights. I am sure that you can find the bulb on ebay. Martin

Make sure that your terminal ends are clean and tight to the battery post. The thumb nuts could be loose and corrosion could build up so the batteries do not charge. I speak from experiance. Retyred

Dexter lists there brake sizes as 12 X 2, 12 1/4 X 2 1/2 and 12 1/4 X 12 3/8. I have the oversize brakes on my 2006 Grand Canyon and find the braking very good. I was under the impression that the over size brakes came with the 8,000 lb axles. Retyred

Ice maker water line On my 2006 Grand Canyon there is a plastic ferrule on the plastic water line. My fridge came with an extra one. How do I know that there should be one on the line, mine blew off and I had water in side my kitchen. we were luckey we were inside when it happened. Retyred

Rubber smell Are your Good Year tires new? My Good Year tires are over a year old and they still have a rubber smell when the sun is on them. When they were brand new the smell was quite strong.

Skylight leak I had the same problem with my last motor home. Under the skylight caulking I found a screw that had been in properly placed and after time crackled the skylight. I removed the screw and drilled a small hole at the end of the crack. This will stop the crack from spreading further...

Fans I had my Grand Canyon two years and could not figure why my fans would not work in hot weather. I had looked at the fuses and all looked OK. Finally I took a closer look at the two in line fuses 1A and 3A. I found that the 1A fuse was blown, it looked OK. I replaced it with another 1A fuse...

Tom: May be the little spring valve on the city connection is out of position. Try resetting it with your finger this might help. Martin

2005 Grand Canyon I looked at the pictures and it is a Mt. Rushmore model. It looks to be a basic model with very few options. Also it appears to be missing one of the leather chairs. Looks like it was looked after and nice and clean. Retyred

Pull rite Make sure that you are lined up perfectly. You are only allowed a few degrees off or it will not seat correctly. The same when you uncouple, I believe the max is 16*. Practice will make perfect. Retyred

Wayne: On my 06 Grand Canyon the closet panel is removable. Just removed the coat hooks and a few screws and the panel comes off. My unit is in storage so I can not tell you exactly how high the valve is. Did you remember to winterize the line? Could that be the problem? Retyred

Lunch Jim: We will be in Mission TX for February and March would like to join you. Retyred

!969 was a very good year. My 69 Camaro was loaded with options and cost me $4250 plus tax. Drove it to California and home on my honeymoon. Sure wish I had it today sold it in 1975. There are two things in the picture I do not have today, the car and my hair. Retyred

snow load One eye: It depends where in Ontario you are my unit is near Stouffville. I know it is not snow country but I have never had a problem. If you are in the snow belt areas it might be worth while keeping an eye on it. Retyred

Transfer Switch On the 06 Grand Canyon with the generator prep it did not include the transfer switch. Retyred

water leaks It is the responsibly of the factory for the water leaking problems and should not fall onto the dealer after all it is the factory building the unit. Sure fittings might leak once in a while but we are seeing a trend of poorly tightened fittings. I had two motor homes befor my...

Has any one else had a problem with the rear stabilizer foot falling off? I found mine on the ground under the rear of the coach. The only thing I can think of is that fully retracting it some how broke the weld. I took the other one off to have it re-welded as there is only single spot weld in...

Leaky Roof I would suggest that if you are able get on your roof and check all of the caulking joints especially at the front and rear cap. See the attachments of the road side cap area. The person who caulked the cap must have been slacking off or new on the job as it appears to have been done...

What is the correct type of caulking for the exterior walls joints and seams? Will the solar panel on the top of the heat pump trickle charge the batteries if the battery cut off switch is in the off position? What is the purpose of the little box found in the battery compartment? Thanks. Retyred

Anode Rod I found the anode rods at Camping World. You have to go to the parts counter and ask for them. I think it was around $12. Retyred

Trail America Tires I had Trail America Tires on my Grand Canyon. With only 9500 miles I had a blow out. I had maintained my tires always checking pressure and visual inspections. When ever we stopped I always did a walk around, checking trailer and truck tires. Like most I wanted to make...

I see triples here in Ontario. Retyred

Registration Bob: The way I read it. They are showing what "G", "A", and "D" licence can tow. They all seem to over lap each other but the requirement is that the tow viecle is registered for the weight load. The way I read it, I can pull my trailer with a truck with a total weight under...
