DW and I are here in Elkhart to pickup our new 3400RL. On the way from Idaho passed through Illinois and Iowa where the posted RV towing speeds are 55 mph. Its the same as for commercial trucks. Our observation was that the 18 wheelers were traveling every bit as fast as the cars. Saw a sign in...

DW asked that I inquire about what size plastic boxes people are using in the 'under-storage' area. She wants to start boxing thing up to go to Indiana where we will pick up the trailer. We have a 3400RL on order. Can someone tell use what fits. All suggestions are appreciated. We are talking...

I'm preparation for going FT, DW would like an additional freezer. Found the Engel MT80, which hold 85 quarts and is supposed to be efficient to run in a 12v world. Does anyone use one or perhaps know someone who does? Thanks Rick and Lynn Foreman

Wife and I pick up a BH 3400RL Nov 1st. DW has decided that a Splendide MJ900 is what will make taking care of the dirty cloths less of a chore. Well the dealer gives me a price of $1600 installed. I searched the internet and found the comb of just under $900. Is there really $700 to the...

Wife and I placed an order for a 3400RL last Friday thru RV Direct Wholesalers. Sure liked the price and we have folks to visit in MI in Oct/Nov. We asked factory to switch "e" tires for "G" tires and we told they could only do this IF they upgraded the axles as well. I couldn't see anything...

We are preparing for towing a 3400RL and the subject of transmission coolers came up. I will be within towing guidelines and will be towing with an '03 2500HD with D/A. I have a Banks exhaust, aftermarket air intake, Edge Juice and intend to use Highest grade Amsoil products. Do I need a tranny...

Looking at alternatives for the LCD's in the 3400RL. Spoke with the dealer and the told me that there were no bigger alternatives that could be mounted. Knowing the american male need for bigger, I know that someone out there has found a way to mount a bigger set for both the Living and...

With all the attention focused on tires, I have read lots on tire failures on other forums. Some of the threads talk about problems with rims. Does using aluminum for rims help to prevent tire failures as implied on some forums? Aestetics be *censored word*ed, I'm talking function here. Are the...

The Landmarks are above the limit (GVWR) for my Chevy 2500HD crew D/A 14,700. What are you folks towing with? Ford 450 SuperD, Fleet liners? Ran into a dealer that tried to convince me that the Landmarks come standard with things that I will endup adding to a Big Horn so that I probably would...

As soon to be full-timers, I need to keep my '03 2500HD LB7/Allison tranny in good condition. We have done some vacation towing with a TT but never a 5er and certainly nothing this big. Lots of posts on the Duramax forums argue the virtues of Amsoil and 25,000 mile oil changes, extra oil and...

Have looked at several nav/backup systems for my 03 2500HD D/A but I'm told that all of them must be mounted on the dash. This seems to obstruct vision. Are there any alternatives? I am particularly interested in a nav/backup combo. Also where do you mount the tire pressure monitor? Thanks

Wife and I will be placing and order for a 34RL in next couple of months. Would appreciate some guidance with ordering options. 10 cu ft Frig - Dealer had no idea of the effect on storage of a larger Dometic refrigerator. Wife would rather put up with smaller frig than loose an inch of...
