    Faucet replacement question

    Planning on changing out the kitchen pull down sprayer faucet assembly. Is it correct to assume that the plumbing fixtures in our RVs (Big Horn here) are all standard fittings and I can purchase one from Home Depot / Lowes and install without an issue? Thanks

    Has anyone installed an after market Tire Pressure Monitoring System? With all the talk about lousy tires Heartland has been putting on I thought it might be a good layer of insurance / assurance to have such a system. Worth it? What's a good system? Thanks
