My hubby was deployed in 2015, and he couldn't tell me NO! We replaced the day/night shades before he left with the 2" faux wood blinds, which do a better job of keeping light out - and are easier to open and close. I got some fabric from Hobby lobby to replace the ugly valance (sorry if you...

Don't forget to check your connections often! Tonight I was outside dumping tanks in the damp drizzle and fog and noticed that the pigtail wasn't completely plugged in to the surge protector... I touched it a bit to see what was happening - and I heard a sizzle and saw a small amount of smoke...

I have been noticing DRASTICALLY reduced water pressure at the kitchen sink. I dismantled our entire water intake system (pressure regulator, filter, hose, etc.) outside and checked for anything there, assuming it was a problem for the entire camper. I found nothing and assumed that there was...

We saw a bighorn with a blowout heading east just outside Nitro WV today. I hope everything is okay and you get moving quickly!

Hi everyone! I love my iced tea, but haven't found a pitcher that I really like that will not spill, will fit, and won't take up the entire fridge. Maybe I haven't been looking in the right places, and maybe I'm the only one with this issue... BUT.. Just in case others are looking for a...

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?

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!!

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...

If anyone is in need of a place to stay while evacuating from fires in SoCal- the San Diego metro KOA is offering free RV spots. All you have to do is call 619-427-3601.

The hubby took a week off of work at the job so I put him to work here at home. One thing on the list was to install the JT strongarms. With two kids bouncing around in the back sometimes it gets a bit crazy. We were pretty skeptical when we got it installed. But WOW! We used to get back...

We noticed the dryer was a bit less efficient and then we started getting a fault code. The dryer would stop and the first, second and fourth led light flashed slowly while the lock button flashed quickly. This is the fault code 13. After doing some research we cleaned out the large item trap...

(With Washington plates?) With the crazy storm and rain we didn't get a chance to say Hi! So Hi! I hope you stayed dry in all that weather- and safe travels!

Well, we are in progress. The wiring hasn't been figured out yet, but where there is a will, there is a way. We have figured out where the bath vent will go. Photos of before/ and after the hole. loft before bath before. Loft and bath after the holes were cut. There was a LOT of exploring...

Ramdually finished the install. He got tips from here and it made the job a ton easier! Thanks I everyone for all of the comments - even if they were on another post.😜 It seems to be working. And no more laundromat- which hopefully will save us some $$ and time!!

I recently visited a friend who is living in a house that is less than a year old. It is a VERY LARGE, VERY EXPENSIVE house. As I was visiting I was thinking about all of the quality control complaints people have made regarding our rolling condos. She has a huge amount of settling cracks. In...

Saw a Big Horn, Cyclone and a Sundance heading south. I don't have my Cyclone with me- but if any of those was you safe travels!

Does anyone in SoCal know of someone? I have a friend with an SOB and she wants some installed. Thanks in advance. Also - the title should read air bag. Ugh. For the suspension.

While we wait for suburban to ship the control board for our furnace, we have been using our fireplace a bit more. We noticed after a few nights of use that it started to make a realistic "fire crackle" sound. It was very disturbing so we did a bit of investigation. We pulled off the bottom...

Anyone in San Diego use a mobile rv repair person? Recommendations for/against? We went through the troubleshooting but the RamD is busy with work this week and I need to get it fixed. It's getting chilly at night. I have a call in to Heartland to see if they have anyone they have used before...

Our bedroom window is VERY difficult to open. (The slider above the wardrobe.) does anyone else have this issue? Does anyone have any ideas/inputs? We thought maybe it was the gasket on the screen, but even with the screen out it is very hard to open and close- so not the screen gasket.

We watched someone take delivery of a brand new big country today. It looked beautiful. Someone must be doing a shakedown here in SoCal!

If you have the double beds and want a/c in the garage while the top bed is up we found a fix. You MIGHT want to get another diffuser so you can easily switch if you need the second bed. We took a piece of dryer vent and used hvac tape to tape the dryer vent to the inside of the diffuser...

Okay. Here's a new one: In our 4100 king-- All outlets work except two. The rear 1/2 bath gfi won't reset/switch. The ONLY plug (other than the 1/2 bath) that seems to be affected is in the kitchen - next to the sink on the interior part of the island. EVERYTHING else works. The garage plugs...

Okay - so I have read a lot of the fridge posts trying to see if I could find someone with the same issues. Our freezer doesn't cool well enough, and my fridge cools too well. We have the Norcold 1200 or something like that. It's the double door one. Ay thoughts, we are planning on getting...

I told him about the forum and how helpful everyone is when solving any little issues that pop up. His response "I haven't had any problems." It cracked me up and thought I would share. 😜

There is one down the row from us. There is a Prowler down the row too. Anyone here? I promise not to announce on here every time I see one. But this is a new wilderness. :-D if its you we hope you're having a good week here at the koa!!

For grins and giggles we always watch RV related movies on a trip. It started with RV. But then we found the Long, long trailer. We chuckled about how much things have changed. And then we chuckled even more about how much things haven't. I don't think the screen door design has changed at all...

We signed up for the HOC under my account. Can my husbands forum account also be linked so that he shows up on the forum as a HOC member instead of just me? He's a bit jealous that I have the info attached to my account when he paid the bill. Haha.

Happy Father's Day to my husband. We got our cyclone all loaded up and back "home." Last night the tv worked fine. This morning we went to turn it on and nothing. No power to the TV. Plugged it in on a known working outlet and it still doesn't work. We can't even check to ensure the power cord...

Pulled our new home out of the KOA here (9 month max stay) and headed to a temp place while we wait our two weeks before we can return. Lo and behold there's another cyclone here!!

We have had it a week. It has only sunk in yesterday that's its really ours. Some pics.... Good and bad. ;-P We full time with two littles. Having the extra space is wonderful!!

Our rear DVD player will often tell us that our disc is not formatted for this region, or it will skip and replay the first chapter of a movie over and over. Trying to read the manual-- that's futile. It reads like it was translated to four different languages and then to English. Ay...

I hope this isn't too confusing. We have the surfit tables in front of our couch in our cyclone and we almost never use them. The problem is that we are, uh, clumsy. I'm worried someone is going to trip or wrench a foot in the holes that the table legs go in. I've looked for something that...

We picked up our new cyclone 4100. So far we love it. I was only a little disappointed that the kitchen storage is a bit awkward. The rest makes up for it though!! I am SO in love with the tub/water heater. We are full timers and a 6gal water heater in the SOB 5er we had last was awful. The...
