    Jamie, All original 30 sites were booked so they put us on I42. If possible if a site would open in the group area, would be nice to swap out if possible. Pam

    Voyager WVOS511 Digital Wireless Observation System

    For those interested, they also make a camera-less system (WVRXVAMTC or WVRXCAM1) that can be used with an existing monitor in your truck (requires external video input). Costs less, best price I've found is at rvcams. One disadvantage of these wireless digital cams from Voyager is the reduced...

    Any experience with wind deflectors?

    I asked a guy that had one on his truck and he claimed that he gained about 50 miles per tank with his previous 5th wheel, but not as much with his present travel trailer as the distance between deflector and trailer is too great to be effective. He had his mounted on a bracket right behind the...

    Where to install hardwired EMS in BC 3355RL?

    Thanks for the tip, that's a possibility depending on where they routed the power feed from the plug to the breaker box. If they went diagonally, it's not passing any cabinets, else it is going below the sink side or fridge side. Guess It's time to get underneath to see what's visible once I...

    Where to install hardwired EMS in BC 3355RL?

    Anybody done this in a Big Country 3355 and can offer some advice on where to tap into the power? For some reason I had it pictured that power is running by the basement storage compartment, but looking at it again it dawned on me that it's coming in on the opposite side and likely just runs...

    Full time rving questions

    If you want to save some money, consider buying a new 2011, some dealers still have them and you get a better deal. Re: diesel vs gas, if you figure the higher gas mileage and resale value, the diesel may be cheaper in the long run, especially if you put on a lot of miles. Repairs can be costly...

    List of things to buy and suggestions.

    On the subject of cleaning your rig while on a campground, are most of them ok with that or do you have to clean it in a designated wash area?

    List of things to buy and suggestions.

    If you search for "RV camping list gear" you'll get plenty of online lists, here's one that's fairly comprehensive: http://www.rv-camping.org/CheckList.html One more item to add to the list, though, is a replacement fuel filter (and wrench that fits the filter/space) for your truck. Given the...

    Landmark Backup Camera Option

    The monitor has inputs for two cameras. Anybody tried this setup? Wondering what display choices you get (switch back and forth only, or split screen as well)?

    Front Cap Fading

    Between the fading/oxidization, deteriorating seals/caulking, and weathering of the black plastic trim I'm wondering if we're not better off to cover our RVs whenever possible (I know some people have had their covers put wear on the rubber roof). We recently bought a "new" 2011 that was built...

    Auto leveling and other add-ons on the BC

    A bit late to the party, but it seems appropriate to add to this post rather than starting a new one. There are probably other benefits to the hydraulic systems besides speed, but to me that would be a major benefit given the turtle-like crawl of the electric jacks that came standard on our...

    Hi Fellow Heartlanders from New Big Country Owners

    Well, a month or so ago my dear wife mentions there's an upcoming local trailer show, my dog wakes me up a couple of days later early on a Sunday morning, I'll drink my coffee and remember what she said re: show, look up the details online, see it's the last day of the show, wake her up, off to...
