    Should my water pump run non-stop?

    Just filled the holding tanks for the first time (2/3 full). When I first turned on the pump it was very noisy. Then it quited down a bit but I can hear it constantly run (humming sound). Should it do that? Found the UDC side cargo pocket floor in wet this morning. No water on basement wall or...

    Took the Plunge

    x2 Must do a PDI. A very thorough PDI. If it's a 2012 being sold as a used unit why did the last owner turn it in so soon? Maybe because it had problems? Check everything and then check it again. Someone on this forum has a great PDI check list. Search for PDI check list in the upper search box...

    Air Bags-good or bad

    Are your airbags adjustable? We have the Firestone airbags. No maintenance issues at all. We love them!! It made a huge improvement on how the truck handled while the Cyclone was being towed. We do have the on board remote air compressor (well worth the extra $$) so that when not hooked up we...

    Nope, it's down the entire center of the rig. The floor looks flat until you step on it then you can see it move about 3/4 on an inch. The entire thing goes dudunk and bows downwards. Around the heater vent you can see the vent stays in place but the subfloor dips and comes to rest on the duct...

    Our new 2012 Cyclone 3712 CK HD kitchen / loung floor is loose. When you step anywhere towards the middle of the coach you can see the floor indent. It pops, squeeks and makes all kinds of noise.

    Dually Tire Rotation

    One more for don't rotate. Too much trouble to break the tires down to switch rims. Havn't noticed much loss due to uneven ware. Front's need to be replaced a little sooner then the rear. Usually about 6 mths or so. But who wants to buy all 6 tires at the same time?

    Dually Daily Driver??

    We have a F350 DRW Diesel and use it mostly for towing although it's the most confortable truck we've ever driven. Our F150 is the daily driver. Fuel and oil changes are just too high to drive the diesel everyday.
